Ok, why do you think it should not be implemented?

1. Page one gets cluttered up with loads of crappy little icons and ends up looking like my 5 year old's school exercise book
2. Threads change direction very often. What starts off as "Albion" can very quickly end up as something else. What happens then?
3. It it isn't broken, don't fix it.

1 - no. There'll be no need icons at all. The board will look exactly as it does right now.


2/3 - if you have no interest in using the filters then it doesn't matter if a thread changes direction as got won't even know what it was originally classified as.

Yes, it would be good to have an 'all threads except Palace ones' option so we are able to avoid Palace Stand Chat when necessary.

Shouldn't there be an ENREST category as they don't fit into any of the above, or indeed have much contact with reality?

All sounds a little bit too complicated for my liking. If it aint broke and all that.

NO.

You might as well split the board up into a miriad of sub-forums which willbe a nightmare to get around,and contribute nothing, while looking a complete mess. Leave the current anarchy alone - it works fine.

No, because

a: There will be threads that could go under multiple categories.

b: There will be some threads that there is no correct category, unless you add more of them, which will complicate (a) further.

Why will it?

The board will look exactly the same to you.

If you choose to never filter threads, the board will still work in exactly the same to you too.

Whoever said it further up the thread was right: the "nos" just don't get it!

In which case there is no point in the whole thing.

I get it, but I don't want it.

If you decide against the sensible people, I demand a "Nazi Mod" type.

Then why ask us? Seems like you have made your mind up, and it is your 'ball' after all.

Then why have icons / filters when someone can just use the search or advanced search option if looking for something inparticular?

Seems unneccessary to me
