First of all, congrats on the massive growth. This site seems to grow by the day. Are there any plans to put the forums in Postfusion into categories? It is a really long list and it would help finding ones I want to subscribe to if I could search by category.

This is one of our plans, yes, but it could be a ways off. Larry has been working on a large revamp of the front end of PostFusion which will be released very shortly, and after we have done that, we're going to look over our todo list to figure out what to tackle next.

I agree to the category indexing. It will allow you to easily find a forum with an interest group of your likeing.

While I agree that it will help you quickly find an interesting forum, it could defeat the purpose of the system. That purpose is to post at the forums with the highest balance. Either way it is something that is on our long list of things to do.

How about the category listing only shows relevant sites with a positive post count? or 10+? That will help to ensure the higher post count will get you on the list and encourage people to post to allow their site to be categorised...

We will take it in to cosideration when we move to that point. Currently we need to make sure the new UI is working as expected and evaluate our list of enhancements.
