My suggestion, if this is the right section, is to have a General Discussion section in the forums so we as the community can discuss anything at all related to BT/Mechwarrior and the video games based on them.

Oh, and if this is in the wrong section please feel free to move it to the right section.

Yup, they made it easier to have convos by making you go to 6 different places. Just follow the links and enjoy going to 6+ sub sections just to get all the info you are looking for. Can't see why people would hate doing that...

or we could cram it all into one forum where topics stay on the front page for roughly 10 seconds, and you never know what you are going to find. since you can't find anything the problem is compounded by an excess of redundant posts that shove the few useful tidbits even further into the depths.

In before the lock. You will take the medicine you have been given; and you will like it.

If someone has something super useful, they will post it in the right place. I go to the general discussion to see a wide variety of topics and see whats hot and being discussed right now. IF I want something specific, I go to the specific section for it. Otherwise General Discussion is a nice place to glance and get a ton of choices to read. But now its gone. So yippie for you.

I predict K-Town. This post and many like it deserve better than to be shoved into a corner of the site inhabited by goons.
