As an example, lets say a Delta Lounge Forum is created as a subforum of the existing Delta Forum. If a post is made within the Lounge Forum, that thread would show in the forum listings for both the Delta Forum and the Delta Lounge forum. I know many people, myself included, who look to the "Last Post" to decide to go into a forum... for activce Lounge threads, that would always show active.

Of course, I many not have cleared anything up with that explanation...
For forums with active lounge threads currently, how often does the lounge thread show as the "last post" now? I'd think that this would be a problem that would happen now too.
