Honestly not against this idea. RPNation does something very similar. Instead of sorting it by writing levels, each board has its own genre. Fandom, Fantasy, Sci-Fi, etc. and it works pretty well. I just don't RP on there because the average quality is way lower and player retention is pretty yikes.

The problem then becomes 'how does guild adopt this' as we've kind of been with our system for a fucklong time now.

The lack of retention and lower quality on average might have something to do with how the boards are separated, honestly. I do like the idea of using sub-boards for genres instead of throwing everything into a giant list and letting the users sort it out, but I'm also not a huge fan of sticking the AOL-style one liners beside the Tolkien-wannabes, y'know? With the three sections, as flawed as they are, they at least give you the chance to find people who gravitate more toward your style.
