There has to be a large enough demand or need for a new subforum to even be considered. Your request has neither.
Also the number of subforums is purposefully kept low, which makes it even harder to get a new one created.
There are end times discussions in the BDF. Or you can make your own threads there on the subject.

Oh no!
Not just for eschatology....
A "worn out" forum for all those topics that are worn out. Like Sabbath worship, KJV only, and Calvinism doctrines...
Possibly Baptism of the HS and tongues vs regular Baptism, divorce and remarriage,
Catholicism and the pope too.
Then there won't be much else to discuss....because these topics are 90% of the conversations in the theology forum.
Granted, occasionally I'll pick up one of these...but not often.
It's not like most people really have theological questions that they bring to the forums anymore. 90% is just to argue and preach their point of view. Like flat Earth, lizard people, man on moon hoax, and of course the latest conspiracy nutjobs....the antivaxxers.
It seems that most people are interested in division instead of unity.
So....
I do have prophesy questions but there's no one that I've met that can answer them definitively. And the above topics do suck all the oxygen out of the room. No one can accurately begin to discuss Old Testament prophesy fulfillment without diving headlong into their own eschatology theories.
But that's people....
There's not many on the forums that actually have something more than a populist viewpoint of scripture interpretation that flows out of the thousands of pulpits. Actual scholarship that actually uses science plus art to explain the "difficult" scriptures.
Kinda heady discussions for those who stick to populist theologies. Of course so many people have difficulty understanding the main, plain things like what the Sabbath Worship Commandment really says it's kinda like a big banner that says, "leave scholarship behind and turn your caps lock on"
But sometimes even low brow questions like explaining the formula stated in scriptures of what God does with prayers is considered high scholar questions.
Kinda depressing....
So....
My wife and I are writing a lesson plan and book for small groups that should be easily consumable. It walks people through the methods and resources of Hermeneutics without being so highbrow with a bunch of difficult words to understand. There are other books on the subject but they are either difficult to consume or just use bad, illogical skills to arrive at predetermined theologies. (Kinda obvious too)
I've read through most guides available. The truth is not as available as it once was. But it's the silver pin in a literal haystack of chrome ones. So don't think you are gonna get it out without getting poked if you do happen to find it.
In the meantime I don't know what to tell you.
