Inconsistencies when changing languages

It seems that when you change languages, some categories and subcategories are missing. English is the most complete and has all the categories. Shouldn't the rest of the languages ​​be the same?

  • michibikii​  The number of subforums for a given game depends on how much forum traffic is related to that game.  (For example, Sims 4 has ten subforums in English, Sims 3 has three, Sims 2 and Sims 1 have one each.)  Since English is the most common language and gets the most traffic, it would make sense that it has the most subforums, as that increased traffic justifies splitting forums.

    It seems like the idea overall is to have fewer forums and use tags to find the threads we want.  If a particular subforum is a catchall for a number of games but is missing tags for those individual games, that would be useful feedback here.  So would a suggestion for a missing tag about a popular subject.
