Default C1 only forum

Would just like to purpose the idea of a C1 only forum. The gap is growing now between C1s and C2s owners. I think more people are into C2s not only for budgetary reasons but you can drive the C2s more often. Granted there are many other reasons in which I can list. I just can't help but notice the large ratio between C2 to C1 posts. You really need to weed through the threads and this makes for a clunky user experience. The distinguished category would refine searches and for the fact of the matter people could help others more efficiently and with more expertise. Just consider it.
Thank you
-Kyle

Kyle, this question comes up from time to time -- not just in the combined C1-C2 section, but in other areas where people make requests to split existing sections into multiple sections.

The issue is that there is relatively little traffic in the section with C1 and C2 generations combined.

If we split it into separate sections, there will be even less traffic.

Sections with little or no traffic become static. People stop checking because there are no new posts. That spells death to the section.

There is no conspiracy to discriminate against C1-C2 owners. If there were, I'd be discriminating against myself.

Thanks Jim for the speedy reply. As a developer I guess these little things are nit picky to me. So I appreciate your rapport. Is there a consideration for leaving the subject combined but creating separate sub categories in the drop down menu? If its going static then static is static after all. Just cleans it up a bit.

I hadn't considered having separate links to the same section in the pull-downs. I'll mention that to the tech folks. As to clean/static vs. active, my bias is toward active. In fact, we have sub-sections in some other generational sections that have fallen off in use and my inclination is to combine them to "clean" things up.
