A new sub-forum, perhaps?

Guess not.

Do have a little patience. It was only a couple of hours between your posts. It might seem like everyone is on here all the time, but for something like this, the moderators would have to discuss it.

I don't personally see any harm in it, but then I'm not in charge of things.

Guess not.

Exemplary display of ice-cold patience, that.

We appreciate your suggestion and will take the matter up amongst the staff members. However, there may not be a decision in two days or even two weeks, so please don't start chafing after just two hours. Two of our staff members are away for the weekend, so they'll not even know about this until Monday, soonest.

There are only two of us that have the ability to set up new forum sections. I was logged in here a couple hours before your suggestion and just logged back in now. (You'll just have to excuse me, but the other three forums I help moderate, along with my own three forums and four other sites have prevented me from being here in the interim.) The other individual (who owns the site and should be afforded some input into the decision) has not been online today at all.

We'll get to your suggestion when we can get to it, you have my word. As I type this, there has been no conversation about it at all, so it's not going to happen overnight. Just try to bear with us. And, as Alex has pointed out, you're quite welcome to post on these subjects in the Off Topic forum, so it's not as if you don't have an option.

I think my second post has completely skewed my intention here. I wasn't expecting a change today, or at all. I was thinking that other forum users would chime in on the idea because many of them seem to share my enthusiasm for history. Excuse my lack of patience. It wasn't directed at anyone, much less the moderators.

I am sorry that you are so busy, but the sarcasm was completely unnecessary.

Seems we share the same view of the other's post.

I like sarcasm - keeps the spice in the conversations.......

Keep up the good works mods - you know, Moderating!

Rome was not built in a day, nor a fully functioning forum. (And this one seems to work and function very well indeed!)

There also is very good argument for simplicity. If a thing is off topic, what is wrong with placing it in the off topic area?

Seems like the Clann Alba forum is the place to have serious history discussions.. Link is in Mike1's sig line.

Yep, hit that one right on the head.
