I know this kinda alot of me to ask, but, in my opinion, having entire sub-forums dedicated to "How was your weekend", and "Introducing Yourself" is kinda pointless. Instead, what I think would be cool, is to downgrade both of those subforums into Sticky Threads in The Trashcan, possibly even renaming The Trashcan to something more all-encompassing, perhaps "The Lounge" or "Hang-Out Spot", or whatever. This move would make the overall appearance of the boards seem less cluttered.

Again, I don't want to sound like some random guy jumping in from nowhere and telling y'all how to format your forum, just a suggestion, is all...

Edit: After discussing this with the other mods, I think I'm going to have to say we are going to leave it like this. The Socializing category was put on the bottom of the board's main page in order to avoid clogging up the other parts; having four sub-forums there shouldn't be too much of a problem when taking this into account.
Also, as Iggy Koopa rightfully pointed out, the How Was Your Weekend and The Trashcan forums are quite different from each other, so in any case, those two will remain separated. The introduction forum is a nice way for people to post their first few posts and it gives them the feeling that they're welcomed; something a simple sticky topic can't do as good.
