I've just posted a question in the 'Suggestions for these forums' section but then realised that the same question would be aplicable here in the 'Site Feedback' forum as well!
Surely they do the same job? Here are the two descriptions for each one,
1. Have you any suggestions for additional forums or improvements
2. Suggestions, ideas, complaints, compliments or even questions
Pretty much the same huh?

So one's for these forums and one's for the main SimV download site, right?
Ok, get it now but as long standing member like myself can't see the difference, maybe you could clarify the furum descriptions a bit to make it clearer?
Personaly though, i've always treated SimV at one complete entity, not a main site and a forum site. I'd still say it would be simpler to combine the two. Whatever question/comment is being raised, it should be obvious what the poster is refering to.

As for 2 forums doing the same thing, Hardware and Tweaking and Overclocking are much the same... ;)

To be fair, I'd never noticed one was for each. Maybe the second ought to be standardised with the first, so we have a clear "Site Feedback" and a "Forum Feedback".

Fair point Charlie, I found it clear but understand others may not.
I'm sure pete will read this but I'll bring it up with him nonetheless ;)
