Hi,
I am not sure what this closing of this forum means. I hope it does not close. I like it just as it is. The trolls, the anonymous posts never bothered me. I honestly stopped reading a thread once it was obvious it was just a troll thread.
I hope the new site will be just the same. Please do not make people have to register or sign in to post or view. Sure this will prevent trolls but it also will prevent those who just want to posts some facts and not reveal their identities. (Like me). I personally have a lot of connections and know a lot of things about UBF. If I am made to post not incognito I will loose this inside source I have.
I guess what I am trying to say is a lot of people won't post and much will be lost if we change the format. I hope I am just misubderstanding and i really hope nothing changes. If so we will loose a lot.
Also my biggest reason is beyond that point. If this board changes and people leave and it is less visible, UBF will view it as a victory. By making the board anything different then it is we give UBF more fuel to show how they are right. I know they will use this boards closing as a way to show they don't need to change anything.
Sorry to ramble on but please, please if at all possible do not change anything.
