You are right art, but there are some members like me who dont visit very often. And then time to time I like to see ANY thread that has been written about something ( e.g. gardening or medical ) while I was absent. Making the proper sections/categories in the forum helps searching in general (even for old posts), in addition it makes the forum looks more organized.

Many times it seems to me that the three main sections in the forum ( survival, campsire and LTS ) are not really separating anything from anything. There are times that I would toss a coin to decide where to write a certain thread. Gardening, Medical, Gear ..etc. are more specific.
