tell me what you think of splitting 'a&e' into a separate forum

[Mat Sklansky]

Here's a question. At what point does a forum like this, open to many subjects become too crowded? There's 196 people on right now. Is there a number? People talk about posts/ threads being buried, so I have to assume there is. And given that the other forums never reach this number, I feel that siphoning off a few users to a different type of non poker forum is already warranted. Maybe I'm dead wrong. Maybe we haven't become busy enough yet in this forum to justify it. Or maybe, if the A&E forum is too much of a potentially crippling break off, there is another forum possibility that would take the strain off oot, but not create damage. I think the politics forum is a perfect example, but perhaps there are others?
