Splitting the "Off-Topic Discussion" Sub-forum

[Cyrus C.]

The reason I'm thinking of this is because, if we did, we could probably also have an option to not show forum games on the home page. Forum Games crowding the home page annoy me.

On average there are usually about 2-5 forum games on the homepage. I wouldn't describe that as crowded...

That's a lot considering forum games aren't that important. If there are sometimes 5 forum games on the home page, that's a third of the spaces. Currently a fifth of the spaces are filled with forum games.

I see things as this:

Random question threads

Forum game threads

Debate threads

Random experience threads

Help threads.

This categorization takes care of a lot, perhaps even a majority, of the threads in the O-T section.
