Consolidating the Beer, Wine, Spirits forum into one...

[Rod]

I am working on cleaning up the forum and am considering consolidating the CP Saloon forum (which has beer, wine and spirits subforums) into one.

There is a lot of cross-posting going on, and to me it would make more sense to consolidate Beer, Wine and Spirits into one forum.

Is anyone opposed to this?

Thanks,
Rod

Sounds like a good idea to me.

Why? Is there an advantage to combining everything?

 

[Rod]

Since all three forums contain mixed content, it doesn't make sense to segregate each category, especially since the activity in those 3 forums isn't heavy. Trying to tidy up the forum a bit.

I like it seperate, but honestly I check the liquor and beer forums all the time so if I just had one place to go, tha would be easier.

I know it doesn't help much on consolidation, but I'd like to see beer and liqour/wine kept separate.

The beer and spirits sections seem to get quite a bit of acitivity, at least in my opinion. The wine, champagne, cognac & port section seems to get almost no activity.

I have always found it confusing that there were those 3 sections and then the section underneath. Is there really anything posted in the bottom section that couldn't go in one of the top 3 sections?

Please don't do anything that might make me miss one of AVB's scotch buys.

Since I seldom start a new topic it wouldn't have any affect on me. I use the "View New Content" feature almost exclusively to read the board. It doesn't matter whether they are separate or not.

I'd rather they be kept seperate since I only view the beer forum regularly, but I'll live if you consolidate them.

I was actually thinking about that the other night. I think consolidating them would be fine.

Either is fine, but I've always been in favor of subforum consolidation so I guess I'd say combine 'em.

 

[Napa_Smokes]

I say combine them, shouldn't be to hard to find what you want in a beverage sub-forum.

 

[AVB]

I vote no, don't combine them. Since you don't moderate there is nobody to clean up the forums as they stand if there was it would look much better. I do agree that people are posting in the wrong places but combining isn't the answer. JMHO

I too would be against combining since I only sporadically check the beer forum. But whatever happens, happens.
