Ok so I posted a topic today in, what I thought was 'Adults' but eventually found it in 'Cf Adults'. My question, is it nessecary to have a segmented place like this. Likewise I see 'partners' is a sub catagory in families. I know maybe some people complained that they wanted this and that and more, but to be honest I think there are far too many catagories now. I think its great for a newcomer or for reference but when it is so segmented it takes away the community feeling. If you take a look at cftrust forums, they have three main catagories and then one for fundraising. It works out nicely, and everyone can chitter chat.

I understand that a lot of trouble has gone into making this the site it is, but I feel a little bit lost to be honest. I remember the days when it was just 'adults, families, teens and kids', then came off-topic and since then theres just more more more! When I post for information about transplants, Im inclined to post it in adults because I feel Ill get more of a response because only a handful of people ever visit the tx area...

**rant over**. But seriously I do take into account that its hard work to run such a site, but im giving a site users opinon here.
