[/ QUOTE ]I don't think this is a good measuring tool either. A lot of $200+ regulars say that they'd post alot more if the forum was split. Mr. Donk and SABR42 come to mind but there have been many more that have said the same.

Maybe.

However, even if 200NL and above posts doubled, if the split was at 200NL we'd have 183 threads per week in the lower limit forum and 76 threads per week in higher limit forum.

As the numbers currently stand if the split was 100NL and above, we'd have 85 per week in the higher forum and 136 threads per week in the lower. With all these hypothetical new mid-stakes posts we'd wind up with balanced forums.

There's nothing to say FRNL won't eventually split again but I don't think 200NL+ is a viable forum at this time. We can speculate all day about how many posts there may or may not be, but the reality is that these lack of posts is the biggest argument against splitting and for setting the split at 100NL and above.
