Better use of sub-categories

I guess the sub-categories aren't a bad idea but why not use the main topic screen to show ALL the questions in that topic including those in sub-categories, clicking on a sub-category would then effectively filter out all the questions not in that sub-category?

I think this would keep the old feel to the site and allow simple browsing of all questions in a topic, keeping answerers clicks to a minimum but it would also retain questionners ability to target their questions.

I like this one.

I think this would be an ideal solution.

yes i believe that this immense amount of sub-categorization is bad news. As it was there was a good chance of your question being viewed by someone with the relevant knowledge to answer your question. As it is the chance of someone seeing your questin is greatly reduced.

I think these new changes could be the death of AB
