Default Re: tell me what you think of splitting \'a&e\' into a separate forum

DB - do you think the dynamics of a new A&E forum, vs. A&E related posts in the current OOT, will be that much different?

People will be encouraged to post more A&E in general, not just reviews. So yes, there will be incrementally more reviews, as you pointed out. But reviews are hard to write, and most people won't do it.

The signal to "noise" ratio in an A&E forum will still be very high for what people are defining as quality A&E posts. My guess is that it will be very similar to the current OOT, and reviews of dated movies will not be getting that much more attention as the new A&E forum gets flooded with "lower-quality" posts.
