Well then, why did you ask this question on the " That Home Site" computer help forum ? See this link:

Since you already have your mind made up and nothing will change it, why ask those questions ? You were given excellant advice on both posts linked above, here and there.
Admin note,
The actual facts do not support your statement:
" If everything was in one post the users would have to look over pages and pages of posts just to find the ones in the specific topics."
You are not besieged with posters at all ! Hardly a dozen a day on all the forums combined. Furthermore posters/visitors/readers etc usually by habit and time limitations only read the latest postings usually for that day.
I can only tell you that without some more combining of the actual computer topics, be prepared to close down. No one wishes to or will go to one forum and try to find or post a browser problem topic and then to another one to do the same for a modem problem or whatever. Software, hardware, new techical computer information etc, is all computer related and should be combined, just my 2 cents. But it surely is your board, so just run it the way you like, but I wouldn't ask for anymore suggestions if I were you considering the attitude you have about making changes.
