Dare I say it

I'm glad to see you are at least respecting the views of the forum and considering a split even though you really don't want to, but I think your criteria for making a split happen, while not asking too much or anything, is just kind of meaningless.
Either
1) for the next week people post a lot of hands to sway your opinion and get the HS forum started

2) people don't because it's not a HS forum and the whole reason for a split is to be able to seperate the 2 stakes

I'm sure #1 is more likely to happen, but either way whatever happens isn't proving anything about what would actually happen with a new forum. The traffic will be fine im 100% confident. It's pretty much just reorganizing the posts so that the higher quality discussion stays on the front page longer, like what bond said. I wouldn't care if the HSmtt forum got 12423954823432 posts a day like the current one does, as long as the threads are good and easy to access.
