Strictly speaking, people can get answers in the existing forums. But I'm a fellow forum veteran, and I've found it very annoying that there are so many career sim threads in the historical simulations forum. Yes, I can work around it, and I like to read about people's sims and stories on occasion, but originally the historical forum was more focused on historical game setup, settings, output, troubleshooting, etc. There seems to be much less of that since the dynasty reports have taken over, although that's a correlation and not necessarily causation.
We should also think of this from a new user's perspective, where reorganizing things would make it easier and more intuitive for someone who is new to jump in and understand the right place to post career sim reports and stories versus other topics related to setting up and customizing a historical or fictional game, tweaking settings, troubleshooting issues, etc.
Also, from a usability standpoint, when you have a bunch of dynasty reports mixed in with the those other topics, and a user wants to use the search within the forum, it means a greater risk of search terms being mentioned in those unrelated dynasty posts, and you can end up having to sift through more results to find what you need.
