I don't know about you, but myself I'm tired of the mess in Gaming Central forum. We need some subforums to help keep things orderly. Traffic is already high, and some topics are common enough that they deserve their own subforums. My suggestions:
Gaming Central
Gameplay Talk
Techical issues
Emulation
---------
The idea goes like this;
Gameplay Talk is for talking about gameplay ONLY. Possible topics include discussion of strategy, tactics, tips, guilds, spoilers, etc.
Emulation is for people dabbling in wine, dosbox and others; in general - getting non-native games to work. I think this should be separated from other talk, it's already a big portion of threads in Gaming Central.
Experiments with wine/dosbox are quite tricky, often boring, and produce unreliable results. And become redundant as soon (if ever) linux version comes out. Wine players should have their own subforums.
Technical Issues For all other (than emulation) technical stuff, like 'sound doesn't work in Enemy Territory' or 'Enemy Territory - error during installation', 'Enemy Territory crashes', 'Punkbuster keeps kicking me', 'very low fps in Enemy Territory', 'overclocking GeForce 7950'. blah blah.
Finally, Gaming Central itself will remain as a forum for all general/misc talk, including news of all kinds, more or less random talk etc. Also a place for people who can't be bothered to use Search function, can't use google, or can't look around to see Gameplay, Emulation and Technical forums. Sorry, someone had to say the last sentence.

Anyone else supporting this idea ?
