I thought this was a troll since the previous topic was one, I guess.
Now, why are you making this feedback NOW ? I mean, it's been ages since it's been like that.
I disagreed with the integration of this system when I was still moderating this forum and when there was still Arma 3 around here. Because like you, I found it ridiculous. The main reason this system was implemented was because of Arma 3 and now they removed it. Some months later, SychO improved it and made it much much better. But does it mean that this system is useless ? Nope.
People have to get used to it because if they are willing to expand to other games, it'll be much easier to separate things than to put them all in one same home page.
Of course, how things are right now, it is being pretty useless but that doesn't necessarily mean that it's a bad thing or that it will affect the forum since it's easy to navigate through the subforums. I personally check the unread content which gets all of the new posts found in the different subforums and if I have to go to a specific board, then I find it much easier to navigate through the subforums.
Cheers.
