Oh, please, NO! Not now.

Not until GR sorts the dreadful mess the boards are in at present.

This isn't going to happen overnight as it hasn't happened for years, despite countless requests - and assurances!

Far too many things that still don't work here.

To add more boards will overload the servers for certain!

GR - know that we're all fed up with the 'Error' message continually displayed.
We members PAY to use the boards - they should ALWAYS be available unless scheduled maintenance applies.

I truly wonder "How many folk work for GR?"
Regardless, they are never able to fix the problems GR creates here and they cause so much frustration with members.

I don't see how a couple of extra boards is going to overload the Brightsolid servers. The new boards seem designed to take traffic that normally goes on the chat boards rather than generating lots of additional posts.

It's a bit contradictory to say the boards are broken and then say don't fix them.
