Digital_Jedi, i want to have some flexibility. if i go this way and create an article forum per each thematical forum, i'll have a very strange knowledge base -- some sections will be full and some will be empty. what's the point in that? i did say i have a lot of useful threads in my forums but they're not evenly dispersed so i would want to aggregate them by some other logic than i used for thematical forum separation. for example, a model forum may have subforums like "repairs", "tuning", "service tips" and so on, and rather than creating matching article forums tree i'd better create one "knowledge base - model A" forum and link all useful threads for particular car model in that forum regardless of their origin forum.
as for moderators, i have several of them in my forums and they tend to have their own moderating styles, not necessary like each other. i would want to avoid any conflicts in my forum staff and the best way to do this is to keep them separated. also, some forums don't have dedicated moderators (admins moderate them, of course) and i'd like to keep it that way but have means to add "golden" threads from there too.
am i clear now? i really think this mod could benefit a lot from such a feature, it will be much better suited for knowledge-oriented community boards and i see no way it could harm any other board either.
