Sorry but I had to speak my mind. Posts get shuffled way back so quickly, its terrible. It is NOT USER FRIENDLY.

I guess no moderators are taking any criticism or going to respond to this. Im sorry but this 1 sub-forum for every race series is just outright confusing and dumb.

Can we have a seperate Danica forum with pics of her etc. and no negative comments about her, that would rule.
That would be nice.

Well, to be honest, Im suprised more people dont agree with me. Maybe they do, they just are afraid to speak up. Im not when it comes to improving things. This 1 forum for everything is crazy, confusing, and inefficient! It's the ONLY forum that I am a member of that has all racing series in 1 forum. That should tell people here something.
I may have to take a break from this site because all this searching for stuff is giving me a headache....lol

I do - I have to skip it visually, for example, IndyCar - that is, read the topic name, am I interested in? No -> skip, move to the next one, repeat.Well, to be honest, Im suprised more people dont agree with me. Maybe they do, they just are afraid to speak up. Im not when it comes to improving things.

The Racing Comments is a mess. My humble suggestion is:
- F1:
1. Teams / cars
2. Races / quali / tests
3. Other (drivers bashing, rumors, members bickering, etc)
- Next best popular:
1. Same structure
- The rest racing series
1. Same structure.
It would be harder to navigate, however, from a pure usability point of view - reaching whatever you need in more clicks that usual - with the trade-off of being more structured, though.

If there were a potentially better way to organize it, (and I really don't care one way or the other myself), it would be as follows:
1. F1 stuff
2. not-F1 stuff

I could handle that. Didn't people back in the day used to write "OT" before non-F1 thread titles? Archive suggests they did.

On other forums I'm on, when you are creating a new thread you get a drop down next to the thread title which allows to you pick from certain options. Alternatively you can leave it blank. It would read as:
<Formula 1> "Thread title here"
<NASCAR> "Thread title here"
etc.
Makes it easier to find something relating to a particular series without the extra button clicks (except one for the thread starter).

There is no large discussion on other motor sport and creation of many sub forums will only make it hard to keep the forum as a whole tidy.

Keep in mind that this is an international forum, so even though the reach is much broader than, say, a certain Indycar forum for instance, F1 is the common bond for virtually everybody here. Sure, they could give NASCAR and Indycar their own subforums, but then they'd also have to create subforums for the WEC, the ALMS, Grand-Am, the DTM, the WTCC, the BTCC, the Aussie V8 Supercars, GP2, GP3, F2, F3, AutoGP, the WRC, the IRC, and every other series that anybody follows. It'd be a huge mess, and I'd get carpal tunnel syndrome with all the extra clicks I'd have to make just to get to the threads I'm looking for (especially if they did what kvarbanov is proposing above).
You're trying to make it more confusing than it is, we only need sub sections for
Formula 1
Other single seaters
Sports cars
Stock cars
Touring cars
Rallying
Motorbikes
Misc
That alone would help the viewing massively as 99% of the filler topics would go to F1 anyway
But since the Autosport staff probably doesn't bother to read this thread it doesn't matter what we think...

And you don't really want the place turned into a clone of T**-T****s
