We have removed some subcategories from The AnswerBank. If we have removed a much loved subcategory then please let us know however, we think the categories we have removed won't be missed.
If you feel like we could reduce the subcategories even more, please let us know.
If you once posted in a subcategory and you find there isn't anywhere to post, please post in the parent category of that subcategory.
The "Shopping" category is now "Shopping & Style".
The "Family" category is now "Family & Relationships".
Please note, any content that existed within subcategories still exists on The AnswerBank. All we have done is removed these subcategories from the menu to discourage members from using them.

I suggested ages ago that in order to keep News free of the mound of stuff that isn’t 'news', 'Politics' be promoted to a main category. I still think that would be beneficial.
Additionally, I would like to see an 'ABers' section for obituaries and enquiries about absent ABers - it would be good to be able to check in one area whether or not people are dead, well, or otherwise - and a 'For the attention of' section to post messages directing other people to threads they may be interested in but may have missed - posts there being restricted to just a few words.
That's my two-pennyworth ….. for the time being.

We're looking into adding new main categories so thank you, Naomi24 we will take note. I agree "Politics" would be good as its own entity. Regarding the "ABers section", ChatterBank is a suitable place for this.
- The "Current Affairs" category is now gone.
- The "Relationships & Dating" category is now gone.

Corby, I think some sub-categories are necessary. Because all the stuff posted in 'News' isn’t news, questions in that category quickly disappear from the front page and therefore people abandon the threads. That's why I suggested that Politics, become a main category. That would extend the lives of all those threads.
