I disagree with the dilution concept...in fact it would be the opposite for me.
SO MANY irrelevant posts (for me) pop up in some forums I (and others!) no longer even visit the forum! The more targeted a forum gets the more likely I am to visit it if it is interesting for me.
The Buzz, General Traveltalk, OMNI and other forums are often to general and therefore overwhelmed with new topics that I have to skip the forum altogether.

p.s. besides, it would be really nice to search ONE forum for a city name to find the restaurant and bar of choice....where would you do this now? muliple places i guess? or nowhere?
