Sub-Forums..I think we need more..

Why is there only subforums for .us, .tv, and .mobi?
but none for other popular extensions?

Why not create a subforum for every cctld in existence?

It becomes increasingly difficult to follow. If a new extension or market segment becomes increasingly popular, Namepros Management at their discretion can make a subforum for that -- it happened recently with the Short Domain Discussion forum and not so long ago with the .mobi forum.

Having a forum for every extension would just make content largely redundant imho. There are only so many things to talk about and members gain little from having a discussion in each forum along the lines of "where do you see .cc, .ws, .info, .pro, .biz, .etc going", rather than a single all-encompassing thread asking the same question.

Members here are of course free to make their suggestions known.

Thanks. Maybe it's better this way, since there's so many subforums and forums within this forum that I'm not even aware of yet. lol

I agree with Reece. You have to match subforums to interest levels otherwise it can do more harm than good. I was sceptical when several .pro threads were rolled into a single .pro discussion thread, but it has generated more continuous, focused, constructive, and in-depth discussion than having sporadic individual threads. Total views have just past 17,000 with 800 replies. That wouldn't be enough to fill a subforum but it creates the right level of momentum and interest on a single thread.
