A board is much needed here as it is really hard to follow.
We have several parallel discussions in one topic and it's almost impossible to track the one that you are interested in.
Its really hard to follow Serbian thread.
Following discussions on less than a page (on average) of daily activities shouldn't be that hard (IMHO).

People have decreased posting in there as they don't want to make the situation worse.
By doing that, they're not helping this situation (local board application) either...

People critique each other there for posting too much and some users even said that they don't want to post replies in order not to overwhelm the topic.
That's why people give up on posting.
Then that should change (based on my observation, it's the only way).

I don't think that users should continue to limit their discussion just so the thread doesn't get absolutely impossible to read.
Agreed but it's not on that scale (yet).

As most of you don't want to post in our local board for unknown reason I don't see any reason why our board wouldn't be renamed in ex-yu board(or maybe I am too old?  Grin), more people would come and board will become more interesting, after all we are speaking the same language.

Other than taxes I don't see why we should be separated. This is forum after all, and local boards with different languages are for people who understand these languages.
Nice suggestion.

I am afraid that Serbian users would have to scroll just as much through this combined board to find relevant topics, as they already have to do in their current local topic.
Two different main sub boards can be created (to solve that issue) there (one for "Croatian topics" and the other for "Serbian topics"). This way it will be well organized.

We can make more comments there, and in same time more mess, but that is not a point.
We need a bit more free space for more activity, and we need support to make that happen.
I understand these valid points but in order to have your own local board, there should be a significant demand/need (unfortunately that's not the case at the moment and based on what I've seen from similar proposals, such stats aren't good enough).
