At one point I was looking for plo5 because that's what I have live, and now I'm looking at plo4 since that's what I have access to on Global Poker. So I've been in both spots.
It just seems like you're arguing for the sake for arguing which is a little weird.
Maybe so - most of my posting recently has been in the political forums.
However, I have also been trying to learn and playing some PLO recently. The games near where I live are mostly 5 card, but there is still plenty of 4 card around, and every post I read seems to give information relevant to either game, which is why I think it's very silly that those who play one game wouldn't want to read those of the others.
Especially for people playing the game which has recently been losing significant popularity.
By the way, several years ago I played a lot of limit Omaha 8 or better and regularly read the strategy forum for that game. There started to occasionally be posts about Pot Limit O8. Over the years, more and more PL hands were posted, and the two games were never split. I never read any posts complaining about the posts about the game rising in popularity clogging up the threads, despite the fact that there is are larger strategy differences between LO8 and PLO8 than between PLO and 5-card PLO. Then 5 card PLO8 hands started being posted as well, and even occasional 5 card LO8 hands showed up. Nowadays there are hardly any LO8 posts made anymore, so the forum gradually switched from one form of poker to a very different one with no problems.
