So can we merge most of those sub-topics into their parents then? Ideally this forum would be down to less than about 10 main topics.

SMF does not support that. We need to run some trivial SQL statements to update the board of each post from board X to board Y, but we don't have access to the database.

Manually moving each post is not going to happen, hence this halfway solution.

How about creating the new topics directly in there and locking the old ones?

Please don't merge the technical subforums. Unless I am missing the point (?), I can't possibly see what benefits  merging JOGL and LWJGL would add besides confusing people...

Because most of the queries are just OpenGL queries or other not particularly API specific questions. What we want is when people go looking for Java and OpenGL they find answers in either binding. Likewise JOAL and JInput.

Similarly anything to do with business (whether amateur or pro) could be put under a single topic which covered general games biz stuff, work for hire, resumes, job adverts, indie game development, etc. They get so little traffic.

Ofcourse it would be possible to write a bot to scrape the thread-listing and move them to another board through the admin interface...... bug free ofcourse. persecutioncomplex

It would just be so much easier if ChrisM would follow up on his messages... Pretty please Chris?

I'd still like to do this at some point to get rid of a few of the redundant sub-boards.

Riven, let me know if you need anyone else to run queries etc. and I can help out.
