In an ideal world, Badger Street would not be a sub-forum, but I think that's just a reality of the amount of attention that it's going to get. I like this arrangement given what we have, especially Lampshade Bar and Grill being higher up in the hierarchy.

I, personally, don't use Treasure Island and think of it as less "essential" or "high priority" than the government forums. But, I realize that's likely not a universal opinion. I guess we could give it a go, on a trial basis, to see if increasing Treasure Island's visibility would assist with its activity without needlessly decreasing government activity.

---- Cabinet Office (private Cabinet discussion)
---- Ministry Private Offices (one subforum per ministry, visible only to that ministry's staff)

This would require consolidating all the public Ministry offices into the main Executive Area forum which I have ... mixed feelings about. On the one hand, I think streamlining those sub-forums could reduce the amount of unnecessary hierarchy on the forum and possibly increase the usability of the private sub-forums. On the other hand, it would take a fair amount of work for the executive to streamline our current sub-boards into one. Curious what others think about this idea.

I personally think the idea of eliminating subforums in Embassy Row is feasible and should be done if it can reduce Admin workload, etc. But I'm curious what @Roavin, @Jay Coop and @sandaoguo think as recent MoFAs
