Are we even certain the forum has become worse? Isn't it only natural that as players move up and become better and better this forum becomes less and less usefull. So that people who are now very good don't find it as usefull as it used to be, doesn't mean it has become so much worse.

I'm not sure I understand what you're saying. You say that the only reason posters left is because they didn't find the forum useful. Yet, they would clearly find a forum useful or this thread wouldn't exist. So that leads me to think that this forum must be worse than it used to be, or else there wouldn't be the need for a separate one.

IMO the forum has gotten worse. I definitely don't remember all the OT and "Should I fold KK here?" posts when I first joined 2+2. I guess all I was saying is that whatever the advocates for a high stakes forum would post there, they could just post here it seems.

Really, it doesn't matter to me if this one splits or not because I will just read and even post on both.

A much more useful split in my opinion, would be a "STT: Hands" forum and a "STT: Social" forum.

I have no problem seeing hands from $1.45 turbos to $2k step 5s being posted. The ones that merit debate will naturally stay near the top few pages and the ones with cut and dry answers will naturally die after a few replies.
