So is this going to be the structure of the new fo...

I have been as objective about this as I can but have to say I don't like the lack of clarity of the new forums, and would prefer clear areas of discussion such as:
Connectivity
Security and Privacy
Gaming
HomeHub
BT Vision
Phones
Billing issues
Computer Issues - Hardware
Computer Issues - Software
Suggestions
Email
Web Authoring
An area such as BT in Home can cover a whole range of topics and gets very cluttered, and some of those topics can equally belong to, say, BT Out and About. And often one does not know where to post things - just look at the number of posts that have been moved from Forum Help and Suggestions, where people have posted because they don't know where else to go.
What do others think?

Aye to that.  Just to add that a point was made back in January by Alun H about a General Discussion forum which seemed to generate interest.
All the best forums have a Lounge where folk can discuss OT matters. It helps to build that essential spirit of camaraderie. The bt usenet groups have one and it's mostly inhabited by a handful of people making harmless smalltalk, one or two popping into the "serious" groups now and again to seek or provide learned advice.

Cant see the logic in reducing the number of post-headings myself, unless it is to reduce the traffic on the forum, which it seems to have done. 
Yup, it's just not humming is it. And there's already a new thread in this group that supports my case for a Connectivity group - thanks Sid
