Doubt if I'm the only one to feel a lurch in the stomach after reading Ned's announcement that the forum is going to close at the end of the month. And I know I'm not the only one to have found this forum enormously useful.
Some questions immediately spring to mind.
Ned ? is there anything we can do to prevent this? More moderators? Graded membership (ie ? you only get access to certain threads after being a member for a particular number of posts)? Anything at all?
Everyone ??if the forum really does have to close, what can we do to make sure that the information here is preserved? It's far too valuable to let slip.
I haven't been around for long enough to see too many of the incidents causing the problems, but there's no time for recriminations anyway. Can we please keep this thread focused on ways to move forward?
