Another vote for aa213bb's expression of preference!
I think this forum is completely different from the other hotel/loyalty program forums - I have no interest whatsoever in those and if this forum had been located there when I joined FT I would probably never have found it.
This is a forum for travellers with an appreciation for luxury. Regulars regularly seek others' views/experiences here about many aspects of luxury travel other than just hotels. I think that should be the prevailing theme and I like the idea of a small number of sub-forums but only if there is sufficient interest in a sub-topic to justify it (not a proliferation!).
And especially, to Carol, a big thank you for your support of this forum!

Firstly, thank you as always for your efforts and work here on FT. You and the other Mods have sometimes difficult and almost always thankless roles. So, thank you.
As to your questions:
1) Please don't.
2) I'd be amenable, perhaps, to a Luxury Travel forum, with separate sub-fora for Cruises, Private Air, Hotels (i.e. this forum), and any other options others think appropriate.
It might be nice to have a sort of "one stop shop" for those who wish to put together solely Luxury travel.
