Technical Support and Feedback - U.K and Ireland: Now a sub-forum under Europe?

I was annoyed to log in today and find that The U.K. and Ireland Travel & Dining forum is now buried as a sub-forum under Europe. This makes it more difficult to find, and takes longer to access as I have to click through an additional layer of forums.

If it's a general FT policy to do this, to keep the forum lists shorter, then I understand ... I can see there are pros and cons to both approaches.

However, please explain why the United States still gets to keep separate top-level forums for it's various regions? Is this an example of bias against Europe on Flyertalk?!

I believe these topics are being discussed in the Talk Board forum. You might pop in over there.

Thanks. I've reposted this issue (with slightly more detail) over there:
