It's optional now and people are using them. It's been our experience that *enforcing* thread prefixes is not practical. What if a user wants to talk about multiple devices of the same vendor? What if he does not want to talk about the company but not about a specific device?

(Actually some will use prefixes, but if not mandatory it'll always be a mix, you can't be sure and have to look + sorting/filtering with prefix makes no real sense...)
Why doesn't it make sense? It makes sense that it immediately pops up all threads of a particular prefix. If you are concerned about missing threads that are not prefixed, you can always browse the forum itself, use the "New Posts" feature, or use the Search feature in general (if you are looking for something specific).
