I also say no, because in my mind there is a much better way to simplify things: make the SOA forum for questions about BG2 without TOB, and the TOB forum for questions about BG2 with TOB, including questions about Chapters 1 - 7. This model is already used, rather succesfully, at Sorcerer's Place, and would mean no more questions of 'do you have TOB?', and less wasted posts arguing about whether a thread should go in the TOB forum. It would allow us to answer questions more accurately to a poster's game: if it's in the SOA forum, we don't mention Foebane, for example. Merging the forums would, as I see it, have just the opposite effect to this: instead of simplyfying matters for people answering a question (and hence giving a useful answer faster), it would mean even more posts needing to ask "Do you have TOB?".
