If you have ventured into Rants & Raves to check the content of these forums first, then you would notice that the majority of threads are related to maplestory. This is where angry/nonconstructive threads in the General section gets moved, that's also the reason they're mostly about the game.
If anything should me merged to "save space" I'd say it's the Maple Media and Fan Creation sections as both cover the same thing in different formats.
But again, don't make any of these changes when the forums are not capable of properly linking these together and preserving visibility.
I'm also curious what the new sections you're planning to add are, I feel like we have most everything we need already.
Edit: Actually, are you now talking about an actual merge and not having subforums for specific topics anymore? Because that'd be a disastrous mess in my opinion. For the love of RNGesus, don't merge or move any of the support sections into each other.
