Board Game Arena

The default behavior on the top level forum page is that the Games Related Forums would only show games you've played, and give you the option to expand to all games. Now when I go to the top level forum page I see all games, including ones I've never played and even ones I'm sure I've never even viewed that game's landing page.

Anyone else having this problem?

Yes, I see the same.

Thanks for reporting this, we have upgraded the forum and forgot to re-apply this change. It's done now.

Now that issue was quickly resolved, I could ask my question on this same topic.
Any way to have some of thse subforums removed? Some games I played once, but don't want to play again, thus no longer have a need to check up on it on the forum.

I think that searching for the "<gamename> players" group and quitting it would work (didn't check it though, if you try it you can confirm if it works or not for other players who might be interested)

I strongly hope this does not work. I recently quit a lot of these groups (in games i still play) because they've been bothering me on the main page. Those group messages are usually about arena changes. But I still want to be able to read the forum in these games.

Thanks for the quick fix.

I strongly hope this works (or at least there's a way to remove unwanted games), but it doesn't. Just tried it and the game still appear in my profile, lobby, tournament search and game specific subforum.
So please make it possible, else I am reluctant to try new games because I'll be stuck with them forever.

Now that we can create custom game lists, it would maybe be nice to be able to link each of these filters to a list.

Can confirm, same for me.
I am reluctant to try new games regardless of the forum aspect, but it helps me to stay active on the games that I do follow closely. Example The King of Tokyo and Bang subforum have my close attention, but as other game forums may have more recent activtity, the forums I want to keep an eye on sinks lower and lower.
