Not sure what you started it for. But I'll throw in my two cents. This is a very poor structure and destroys the ability to easily locate what you are looking for, by having to scramble around through every other device's development and questionaire to locate what you want.
I am disappointed in how this was done. devices should maintain their own section and not be merged, the only thing that should have been merged is the shared development of working roms, mods, themes. That is it!
To be honest this is the worst I have ever seen!

Dear sir,
I frequently visit the XPERIA ION & X10 forums. I always help keep both clean & organized with the help of the report button and the moderators. However my Ion thread has been grouped with phones that don't have compatible software. Can you please separate the general, Q&A and apps & themes forums of Xperia Ion, S, ARCO S. I always try to help users with there problems. However now with all the threads mixed up, not properly labeled, it will be harder to use the search feature. Also in an attempt to help mods clean up 3 phones forums, they will be over run with requests for thread maintenance. This will actually create more work.
I was also wondering why the Samsung sgs3 gets 5 seperate forums based on carrier service. In the Ion forum we help with the 4+ models all in the same forum. I don't know but seems like the Sammys are spreading out while you round up the Sony's.
Please take no offence, none is meant. All of XDA mods and admins do an awesome job and thank you.

Hi
Well unofficially, it seems Sony want to work with us, which is good, but they wanted some re-organization done, which might suit their purposes more than ours. It is not me but another Admin who is dealing with this. The User Experience Admin Svetius, he might be able to tell you more. As I understand it the changes will take quite a long time so it very likely is in a mess at the moment, but may get better.

Well that seems off, this is a users forum not a manufacturers support site.
This was truly a bad decision, especially without letting the contributors at least know about it ...... and maybe offer input.

I think it is nice if sony wants to help with unlocking bootloaders or rom development on a "unofficial" level. Maybe now we can get those l28at unlocked and get some stuff cooking.

I'm pretty confident that won't be an outcome of this forum mess.

I'll agree that it's not ideal how things have been bunched together how they have, but the admins have clearly done this for a reason so no amount of moaning will change that.
Instead, we just need to make the most of it and make it as easy as possible for us to navigate our way around.

I hate this - usually when I got in I can tell which thread I haven't read and if i can help or not. Now I have to navigate to which specific related to me or my device. Total mess....probably gona be less input now - just sick of it. Understand what the mod here mentioned nothing can change. But i need to vent it out.
What is Sony gona do? This is user forum for god shake, manuf. sure will not push the limit. So what is there to look for !!! Just a poor decision from the Admin, no-respect for the users. At least a poll or something - this is a democratic country! AT&T already down grade a good phone (Ion), now XDA is doing the same. What a disappointment !

Hi Jaramie,
Sorry about the mix up. Would it help if the moderators would label the threads correctly? In order to revert to the previous configuration, we would need to restore from backup, and that's not easy.

Now this is getting confusing. You make it sound like Sony is washing their hands of all things Ericsson. So while all upcoming midrange phones get there own forums, 3 current top end phones get the shaft.
There are a lot of people moaning over this. I think a restore from back-up is looking good. At least seperate all the sub-forums out by phones. Please give us back the general, Q&A, themes &apps for each phone separately.
I never thought I would hear that XDA is trying to make Sony feel more welcome by making it harder for current members to use the web site.
I wish I could say that all the info given about why this happened makes XDA look like it is helping members, but this just helps future Sony phones. I will be asking members active in our combo forum to write you with their concerns. Maybe if we yell loud enough Sony.... I mean XDA will hear us
Sorry for my rants, again.
Thank you for your time

After reading it again you may be correct.
But it comes down to the fact that XDA is a user forum. If Sony came to XDA and said rearranged your forums. I would like to think we would here about it and possibly be able to give feedback first.
Anyways I have sent it. But sadly I don't think one member moaning and spamming an admin is going to do any good

You need to go through the forums button on startup, then scroll down to find the Sony Xperia S, Acro S, ION. Long press and subscribe. Then it shows in favorites/forums.

The new forum structure is really bad. I rarely visit the forum any more. technology should be used to separate information and make it easier to find, not clump it all together. Very disappointed

Help with my thread
I was just re-reading this thread. LOL, LMAO, WOW what attitudes we all had after the merger (just kidding). Well I think that it has all worked out for the better, so far More people means more brain power I still just wish there was some heads up from the admins.
ANYWAY that was not the reason for my post here. I have re-worked MY OP FOR THE RECOVER FROM SOFT-BRICK THREAD to include all 2012 XPERIAs, not just for the ION anymore. I need some feedback from people that have recovered from soft-brick on different models and the ION. I would love all input, stories, posts, advice, etc... for all models of XPERIA. I want to make my thread as helpful as possible for as many XPERIA owners as I can. You can PM me or just post in the recovery thread.
THANK YOU for the help,

Now all is well. The moderator has moved your thread to the correct section of the forum called Q&A.
Also if you are new to XDA then start by reading the sticky'd threads pinned @ the top of a section, before creating a new thread. Sticky'd threads will contain the most common info and FAQ's from around the forum. If anything, ask your question in a general discussion thread first.
Thanks for learning the forum rules. And WELCOME to the XDA forums.

Yes well that's why his thread just got cleaned, so we better keep the discussing here and the developing in the development thread. Let's hope people with trivial questions will find the way to this thread now.
Okay,in my opinion,development thread for a custom Rom development is only to discuss or tell something like this eg. "There are xx bugs in xx,here is xx as evidence" like that
This discussion thread is for people that wanna discuss about the title custom Rom eg. "We can add xx in this Rom" or "The devs should put xx in this Rom etc."
So,I approve this thread even got different device same with op

Hi guys. As I cannot reply to the development thread I will write it here. @RaymanFX I installed the chocolate RC1 and it is awesome. The phone does not get so hot and the sliding is so smooth. But the interesting part is that I did dirty install over the RC1 flashed gapps and cleared dalvik and I dont have any issue with the mirroring line on the top. I dont know if any log would be of any good to you as it is not any crash or so.

For me it's the same with replying to the development section and as well with the mirroring line. It doesn't show up after flashing RC1-chocolate (did a full wipe before). Im coming from latest PAC. ive also made a log with logcat (attached) but dont know if its somehow useful (did it the 1st time).
Thanks to the developers and their effort. Its by far the greatest rom ive ever had on my xperia s (and i nearly tried them all )
