With the release of Alpha 3 I would suggest getting rid of the Alpha 1/2 playtest boards.
Then ofcourse Alpha 3 when Beta comes out.
There is no further need of those sections as the items in question are closed as Alpha 3 is out.
If someone wants to further discuss something they should do it under Alpha 3.
Just a suggestion...

I'd like them to stick around for the time being. It's interesting reference previous discussions when looking at the current rules and see which ideas discussed in those forums found their way in one form or another to the current ruleset.
If anything, just lock them. (Have any been locked before?)
Or, add a collapsible function to the forums, where headings are listed and the handful of topics under them can be hidden. I've been wanting that for awhile now since the forums have become so busy, but I know you guys have other priorities!
How about just locking the A1 boards for now, as a compromise?

These forums already have that function, have had it for a few months now. On the messageboard page there is a little triangle/arrow by each forum heading. If you click that arrow, that forum collapse to just the title bar, and the site remembers your personal settings. I have collapsed the alpha one and two lists so that I don't have to scroll through them to get to the other content.

Spiffy! Thanks, thanks, Mr. Shackleton. I feel a bit Lamm's Lamb-ish now.
Yeah, I have them collapsed. While I can understand the want to contrast and compare... but the older rules have been discussed.. they've been changed and we've moved on. We're not going to suddenly re-introduce an A1 or A2 rule back into Beta if A3 doesn't have it. I don't understand the need for further discussion on those boards.

I'm personally not using them either, but I have seen a few posters mention that there is still ongoing discussion of new rules that Jason is interested in on those threads. Basically stuff that may get added to the beta, but he didn't have time to do anything with it for alpha 3.
I imagine all of that could be migrated over, but AFAIK it hasn't been.
