while I support a diabetes subforum, I seem to remember posting a while back requesting a subforum for agoraphobia and was told if they did that, then everyone would want subforums for their own anxiety issue, and it would just get to be too many.

so it could be the same here

if we got a forum for diabetes, then people might start requesting other sections.. azma, cancer, epilepsy, heart problems, etc etc.

as a note, I think all those sections are a good idea, but like with the agoraphobia thing, not sure if it will happen.

maybe a better idea would be... once a month members vote on an idea submitted by the users-

here's the 2 ideas we have- a diabetes forum or one on cancer, which ever gets the most votes is the forum we'll introduce

and then their wouldn't be an issue of adding forums for everything, because we'd just do it again with new ideas submitted, and see what gets the vote.
