Questions for Readers: More Places w/ Fewer Postings ? ? ?

To me, it's a simple question: Do readers prefer having (a) two forums to check (Heuer and ChronoTrader), with more listings on each of the forums, or (b) three forums to check, with fewer listings on each of the forums. Another way of thinking about it -- is the "density" of the ChronoTrader about right (in terms of the number of listings per day or per week), or would we prefer to have fewer postings, on two separate forums? A related question -- do you proactively "check" the forums or do you rely on the e-mail notifications? And do you like seeing the non-Heuers (variety) or prefer a more focused marketplace?

I have some thoughts, but will wait for others to weigh in, with their opinions.
