I posted the idea for a design board on the general discussion board (though someone may have posted the same idea before me). I can see mecha and space being merged, the themes have similarities.

Who said anything but merging completely unrelated boards? It is fairly stupid to put two unrelated boards together, however you could put /sp/ and /m/ together as the themes overlap. Also, theoretically, if you combine two boards together you should see an increase in the posting rate for that board as the two user groups will come together. However this, logically, will be influenced by several factors eg the overlaps in the users who visit the two boards. Busier boards also have the habit of attracting more posters.

I suppose, in hindsight, that I could have been clearer in the blog post, but I was typing it early in the morning (roughly 1am) so I was a bit fuzzy-brained :p

but you cant combine completely unrelated boards just for the sake of increased traffic, that wouldnt make any sense

I’m one of the lurkers and would enjoy a design imageboard to contribute and get feedback on

Except if it turns out to be a horrible place like /ic/

Ahem, Lets try this again, lol. I think the Design board would be pretty cool, as for solutions 1 and 4 make me smile, loss of content would suck, I’ll be posting more from now on if I can manage to, everyone else should too! CakeDollar, Great job on Megachan!

I think the Design board is a pretty awesome idea, I’m studying alot of different types of engineering so that would be pretty call. As for the solutions, I’m all for solutions 1 and 4, loss of content would cause a great disturbence in the force. All in all, Megachan is awesome no matter what, so congratulations on a job well done! As for everyone else, post moar! (Myself included)
