GameRager: For such people a way to hide threads would be nice, and then GOG wouldn't even need to make yet more subforums. teceem: Exactly! I know it won't happen (anytime soon), but customization options are better than trying to adapt the forum in a way that makes everybody happy (=impossible).

I suspect Gog are working as fast as they can to make the site as good as they can as soon as they can. It's not the priority, apparently, since the Galaxy client upgrade was first; this doesn't mean it has been neglected, simply that it isn't ready for prime time yet, and the resources needed to build it aren't available (yet).
Remember the site needs to incorporate the marketplace and links to the sub-fora ecosphere (for potential purchasers to check what people are saying about the game in addition to the self-selected minority who post reviews) and hopefully allow future users to find old posts after the transition (should it happen).
