“We have to man ye forums! To arms, to arms!”
I think the Game Room is the appropriate place for Serena’s catsuit. She is not wearing it as a fashion statement (even though she says it makes her feel like a superhero). It is compression gear, to help prevent blood clots from forming, therefore it is essential to her gameplay.
I’d be on board with trying to get politics out of GD, keeping it in Elections, if we could actually make that work. If that means relabeling that forum “Elections and Politics”, that’s fine. We could try it for a time and see how it goes. The potential problem I see is handing out warnings for bringing politics into GD, like we do in GQ. Too many of the “great questions of our time” are either political by nature, or have a significant political component to them.
Maybe a better approach would be to keep discussions about specific politicians and things they are doing out of GD and send them to Elections, per the description of that forum:
“Elections: For discussion of elections and electoral politics, including strategy and tactics, political parties, individual races, political news, and politicians and public figures.”
These GD threads would be moved to “Elections [and Politics]”:
So let’s all agree: Trump actually did something ethical and morally correct
Should They Have Removed Pres. Reagan From Office?
Elizabeth Warren has introduced legislation to Give Workers More Control Over Corporate Decisions
There are too many gosh darn forums on this gosh darn website.
I’m a jitter. But not a mocker!
As our dearly departed Unca Cecil was fond of saying, " Consistency Over Accuracy - that’s OUR motto !!! " 
( Not a genuine quote. Composed purely as satire. )
I respectfully disagree with the O.P. here. While there may be some muddying of the waters in terms of shifting threads around the various Fora, it almost always makes a lot of sense.
That said, perhaps there’s a place for a discussion that’s ongoing with links to shifted threads. Not to throw chaos the way of the Mods ( well…not most of them. A few deserve a cold shotglass full of chaos 
), but would Mods be open to discussing placement?
Amen. I have no dog in this fight, I can navigate around at my pleasure just fine (Thank you TubaDiva!), thank you very much. Discussion boards aren’t flashy these days and I hope to bring others into this resource.
Exactly! Having a fewer number of forums allows all of them to stay active, plus allows for decent moderation. It also allows for people to stumble upon a topic they might not have seen.
Can you imagine how boring the board would be if we had a bunch of subforums?

Something like the recent turmoil in the Australian parliament wouldn’t be seen by 99% of Dopers.
Yeah, that’s the best way to never get any new paying members.
It’s not that complicated. You just have more mods.
If there were only one forum it would be too cluttered. How fast do you think a topic you might like would disappear off the front page before you ever had a chance to stumble upon it.
Would even 1% of dopers care? I would never open that thread even if I did stumble upon it.
Sounds like our legal system.
