Here's a further idea to stop clutter in the OS area of Support.
Disallow threads being created outside the sub-forums. The option is there, from memory, in mybb. That way people are forced to post questions in the correct sub-forum of the OS they use. It would also mean the possibility to get rid of the OS prefixes.
Edit: well, never mind that suggestion! I really should have looked at the forum first as I see you've already done that.
In that case, how about a rename to avoid confusion: "Operating System-specific support" becomes "General Support"
Since you've already locked it down and forced a user to post in the correct forum, there's no need for the Operating System... title now.
