Each of the separate skins has their own subforums.

Right now SickBeard & CouchPotato have one massive thread. People posting bugs, features, etc all in a single thread so things tend to get lost.

With a sub forum each one could have a sticky pointing people to the official repos, trac, etc.

I think they've proven themselves as official "Tools" the threads just keep growing.

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON `xbmc_%`.* TO 'xbmc'@'%';
IF you have a mysql problem, find one of the 4 dozen threads already open.

I would absolutely love to see a dedicated subforum for these types of tools! It would be much easier to find information for Couch Potato and SickBeard Big Grin

Just wanted to add a note of support to this request.

Some of the threads are unwieldy at best. The Ember thread is the prime example with almost 5,500 posts. Having it as just one thread means that all types of questions, support, information etc. get lumped together and make it very hard to find useful information. I appreciate that every tool can't have it's own sub-forum, but for the sake of clarity, if a tool's thread has over 2000 posts then that might be a good criteria for qualifying for a sub-forum
