Default Country based Forum sections?

Would anyone benefit from having a country-based forum within A1 so that we can target our audience a bit more?

I.e.:

England, Scotland, etc.

Nothing fancy, just a general area to post - but only related to the local businesses

I would go for that idea, Stuart.

In the case of Scotland, although taxation is an issue reserved to Westminster, enterprise is devolved to the Scottish Parliament and already some policy differences are beginning to emerge on different sides of the border.

We are actually quite pleasant once you get to know us and wouldn't dream of picking on you, Alvin.

I'm playing with sub-forums at the moment - which means we can have more sections (such as by country) without making usability an issue. Have a look at the homepage and you will see I have moved 2 existing forums to be sub-forums of general business.

What do you think of this approach?
