The increased in whining is because this forum sucks now, there is too much traffic.

You got freaking 3/6 players answering questions by 10/20 players.

You got new players spamming up the forum cos they dont know anything (which is fine). But higher limit players dont need to read the same crappy hand posts all the time or preflop questions.

I dont wanna filter through so much fluff everyday.

What good is it posting a 10/20 hand when you get maybe 1-2 good responses from players at your limit a couple of fluff posts and by the morning its 100 threads from the top.

No one has time to look through 100 threads a day and see which is best.

I think its time the mods pulled their finger out and get this sorted.

I'm sure most 10/20 and above would rather have a smaller forum with much less activity. Actually reading threads by lesser knowns not just looking for the usual names.

Man. There is a lot of "hate" for people like me.

I am a lower limit (5/10) player right now. I plan on moving up once I win 200 more BB at my current limit. I feel like I make decent contributions to this forum. But just the same I would like contributions from more experienced poker players. If you push me into micro hush, that will be detrimental to my game for sure.

And what are you going to do? Ignore my posts in high limit hush? I'll still post responses there whether or not you "appreciate" it. if you don't like my advice, ignore it.

This is a ridiculous criticism. People improve by participating in interesting hands regardless of limit. This in no way clutters the forum because these posts are already there, it just increases replies and even can force a higher limit player to explain a situation that causes them to learn more about their game.

No one hates people like you there are just people on different levels of thinking.

The games are different.

I'm not gonna argue the same points from half a dozen threads on the subject.

The mods know that the majority want either 2 or 3 forums.
Micro 0-2/4
mid 3/6-5/10
high 10/20 +

or
HUSH 0-5/10
Mid high hush 10/20+

The time has come.

Winner.

Complaints about noise:signal ratio should be focused on thread starters, not thread responders.

This is stupid. 10/20 would be included in mid limit if are 3 forums.

I agree. I don't much care about the split.

Coming from another perspective, I think newer players (1/2 - 2/4) probably feel a little intimidated from posting and splitting the forums will give them more room to maneuver.
