There is still only one click no different then iff it were expanded. When you view it from the main forum index, you see a list of subcategories. Just click directly on the subcategory. From a clicking standpoint there is no difference between condensed and expanded as the names are not hidden
On another note, this pole will be up for a week, but i can already see where its going.....

No, its a matter of space. If we expanded every sing sub forum, this forum would be silly long and take for ever to scroll through. Its efficient the way it is. I personally feel that the resistance to it is because its something different, and when it has been one way for so long, its hard to get used to the change. I am willing to bet if we stuck with it for a year or more, people would prefer it like that greatly. Either way though, we want what makes people happy whenever we can. So if everyone wants it the expanded way for these, then we can put it back.

If the forum was silly long, then it's easier to scroll because it's easier to spot the regional forums. I find myself having to scroll back and fourth until i can find the little regional regions, missing what I'm looking for. People usually don't click scroll anymore so it's not a big deal if the layout is too long. It's just easier to spot what you're looking for.

I prefer it condensed - less scrolling. For sub-forums I visit often, I've accessed them via shortcuts (one-click links) on my Taskbar for years - always visible no matter how many applications I have open. I also have subscribed forums listed in my User CP for additional frequented sub-forums, with one of my Taskbar shortcuts going straight to the User CP.
