We don't need all of these bloody sections.It worked fine as it was.
My concern is that people will miss valuable information.

Interesting. The argument posed for new topics is usually the same one, i.e. without them folks miss valuable information.

Have to say that we are generally sympathetic to requests for new topics, first because it's a way of maintaining intimacy amongst folks with a similar interest as MN grows and secondly because we can't really see any harm in them. If some horsey folks want a tack room we don't really see a problem? After all, there's a hide facility in customise - so you can avoid topics if you want, and if you don't want to miss valuable information then you don't have to hide the topics.

Wrt to SN, as a it's been raised specifically, we split it up because it was very big and because there were some requests for new topics. Didn't have anything to do with the Amber discussion which revolved around having a "safe space/tea room" and which was discussed at some length by Mumsnetters and generally rejected as unworkable.

"I think stuff like camping and chicken keepers and the horsy stuff should be reduced if anything"

Out of interest, just wondered why you think that Wrinkleytum?
