Ok lets put it into the Gamers Hideout section... Let me know if there is any changes.. Thanks for feedback 
I dont know man, the whole new subforum arrangement is confusing.Cant we just have one for Online Gaming which is the existing one, one for Blizzard games with separate subforum for WoW and Diablo 3 and one for Valve games with separate subforum for Dota 2?
The other threads all go back to the general section of the forum.
Games these days are made with a mixture of genres which it is getting very hard to differenciate which genre each game belongs to these days.
For example, how would you know if pCARS, rFactor or Grid is a simulation game? They all look like racing games to those who are unsure despite pCARS and rFactor is a sim, Grid is a simcade for those who plays all sorts of racing game. What about Bastion? Is it a RPG or it is something else? Is Mechwarrior Online a sim, a shooter or a MMO? It is neither as it is a combination of all 3. How about Assassins Creed? It is an RPG because it has RPG leveling elements but it isnt a full RPG like Baldurs Gate or Final Fantasy? Genres are extremely diluted these days as game developers takes inspiration from other genres when developing their games.
At the end, it is quite inconvenient to open tabs for so many subforums as I play pretty much everything from RTS to RPG to shooters. The forum layout is really messy. While moderation wise, it is a nightmare as people who arent familiar with genres or subforums will open threads here and there.
