Hey guys!
I am here from last year and i noticed that forums is not utilizing what it
can. There are many sections which are not in use any more and forum
talks are now more concentrated on Data Compression, Inno based Scripts
and Conversions.
So What Do you think guys isn't it will be better to make some specific sections
based On data compression, Inno scripting and Game Conversions.
Plus i don't know any English Forum specifically based on Inno, So it can attract
more audiences too.

Please, start thinking about how deep the forum structure should be. Just a purposely stupid example for demonstration:
- Let's have 3 separate subforums for packing, unpacking and repacking games.
- In each of these, 4 separate subforums for InnoSetup, InstallShield, Windows Installer and custom installers. If a custom installer is mature enough, open a subforum of its own.
- In each of these, separate subforums for each major version.
At the end, that would be several levels of several dozens of subforums which visitors wouldn't understand. There must be a compromise between the details and numbers of subforums.

(I hope the forum engine supports subforums in any depth.)

Something like http://krinkels.org/h
There will be single section for Compression and Installers each
every section will have there own subsection like compression can have Compressors, Preprocessor and Preprocessor can have Deflate recompressors
and Installers section Can have Inno setup , Null -soft etc.
each section can have moderator who work is too introduce new stuffs time to time and help other guys

I would love to see this change but as usual, you'll still find users posting in the wrong sub forum.

That's why we should have Section moderators or something like that
