Proposed forum changes

Hey guys, we have been talking about changing a few things around lately. Nothing changing in the generation specific areas, but more in the other areas that dont receive as much traffic yet have alot of subforums.

So what we are considering is:

under the Mustang Community category, consolidating all of the Mustang Motorsports subforums into the one Mustang Motorsports heading. All in one folder.

The Ford Motorsports forum will become just Motorsports so all forms and manuf can go here.

I may change the name of the general vehicle discussion forum to something along the lines of General Auto News and Discussion

The Other Fords forum, conslidate the two subforums under it into the main Other Fords forum and name it Ford Discussion or something to that effect.

Under Off-topic > Sports. We have a ton of subforums for each different league and such.. its pointless to me. Basically would like to consolidate it into the one sports forum under off-topic.

The reason for the changes and all is mainly due to the high amount of traffic we are getting through the mobile app. When using that, you dont know what forums are available, and the more subforums, the less chance there is for those to be utilized because people just do not find them.

As always we are open to suggestions and feedback.

Thanks
Scott & Staff

I've been looking at stickys and have already unstuck a few in the Car Care section to clean it up. Some of them are just too old to be relevant anymore. If you've got examples of others worth looking at, feel free to post them.
