i havent been on the forum in a while and only glanced at the section, so i might not be grasping the full picture here, but imo that sounds too niche to be creating a whole sub board over. that aside, digital goods has always been a mess. unless it becomes a big a problem as accounts were, i dont see it happening, and from a glance it doesnt look to be that severe. broaden the hypothetical sub board to include 1 or 2 more related items and it could definitely be a possibility though.
Yeah, in my opinion its not necessary. What needs to happen is removal of the nonsense in the digital goods section, as well as getting users to condense their 4/5 threads into one. That would be a little more beneficial without having to add a whole new section.
