actually the minimal area to spread stuff out is precisely why i try to avoid any sort of thread dilution. its important that content be concentrated rather than spread out if you don't have a ton of activity. this is the first content-based thread ive really ever locked, so please give me a break on the implication that threads are locked regularly around here. im a very hands off mod and have been in pretty much every forum i mod with the exception of poker legislation in the week following black friday, which was a beast in and of itself.
but believe it or not, this subforum actually gets quite a bit of traffic. they may not post regularly, but a looooot of people lurk this forum pretty heavily every day. i dont like gripping anything by the balls, but there's no reason why advice given to someone off-racing at a gold level should be any different than advice given to someone main-racing at a gold level. it doesnt really make sense. obviously there are likely some minute differences or not as many mechanical issues, but that's not substantial.
