I vote keep separate.

While I don't see a problem with the "is it real?" threads, wouldn't one option be to make one threat for such requests and make it a "sticky?"
All good points and things to consider. But as I remember it, correct me if I am wrong, the memorabilia guys were pissed about the fighting back and forth. And with the expulsion of Travis that has gone down a ton. I don't think there is push back from regular discussions. But again, all good points. The thing I look at as an administrator is how much activity does a section get, and if it doesn't get enough does it make the overall forum look stagnant? Two to three threads a day is a fairly stagnant forum, to me. I would rather see the memorabilia side have 8-10 (responded to or new) threads per day than have them get 6-8 and this one get 2-3, from an activity standpoint, if nothing else. Hope that makes sense. IF there is little to no activity it is sort of like everyone watching a tv station which has 2-3, 30-second shows a day on it.
