Hi phunkphish.
I agree that FLO8 and PLO8 play substantially differently.
But tournament and cash games also play substantially differently.
And full table games play substantially differently from six handed games.
And heads-up plays substantially differently from six max or full table.
And high stakes plays substantially differently from mid stakes or mini stakes.
And on-line plays substantially differently from brick and mortar casino.
And private games play substantially differently from brick and mortar casino.
Yet in each of the types of Omaha-8 mentioned above, you use two cards from a personal hand plus three board cards to make a five card hand. Also all these ways of playing Omaha-8 are high/low split games with an 8 qualifier.

with different followings.
That's true. However there is considerable overlap.

IMO FLO8 better belongs in MIX / Limit forum.
Is there a "MIX / Limit forum"? (If there is, would you please provide a link).
There's a "Draw and Other Poker" forum. Is that what you mean?
Looking at your computer screen, can you see the labels? If you can, and if you're not interested in fixed-limit, don't read the threads labeled with a
.
Exclusively pot-limit threads are labeled with a

Roughly 30% of the threads of the last month are fixed-limit threads, and they're all labeled with a
. I suggest you don't read them if you're not interested in them.
But OK, it has been a while since we last voted on preferences. If you'd like to write another poll about having a separate forum for pot-limit Omaha-8, you're welcome to do that. Or if you want me to write the poll, I'll do that for you. I guess the question is:
"Should pot-limit Omaha-8 have a separate forum? (Separate from fixed-limit Omaha-8)."
If you want the poll to be by secret ballot, then write the poll yourself. (If I write the poll question, I'll choose to have the way everyone voted visible).
If you want me to conduct a poll or if the question should be different, please advise me (in this thread).
