Today, many threads in the Morgantown forum have been consolidated into fewer threads. There are threads for Moving to Morgantown, WVU posts, WVU Sports, Restaurants, Recreation, Roads & Infrastructure, and business news.
This is designed to make the forum easier to use, both for the regulars and for new members. The primary focus is to provide accurate information for people considering a move to the Morgantown area. That is fundamental to the reason City-Data exists.
As background information, I had to look back through 6 pages of threads to find one whose last post was 6 months ago. The last post in the thread at the bottom of page 1 was 32 days ago. Now the 6 month old post is on page 2 (once all the redirects expire).
In contrast, the main WV forum had the post at the bottom of page 1 was 48 days ago, and the main forum has no consolidated threads. The Charleston forum has some, and the bottom thread was 177 days old. The Huntington forum has several consolidated threads. The post at the bottom of the first page is 388 days old.
I wasn't trying to count, but I eliminated somewhere over 100 threads, and over half of them had no replies at all.
