It's bad if you haven't visited for a while (or don't get a chance to regularly). The serendipity of having everything in one Supporter forum right now is great, in that you get to see threads you never knew existed (because they're all munged in there together) and more often than not the quality of the info/discussion is far higher than "outside" in the public forums.

For that reason, I'd vote (if there were to be a vote) for the status quo. Either that, or if the forum software would allow for the tweak, have a "pseudo-forum" that "gathers" all the Supporter threads, but have the threads themselves farmed out in the individual forums as discussed above...
