Social media is killing off fora like this. It's clunky to use. Price is right, but....
Maybe it's time to consider a closed group on Facebook.

No one recognizes the greatest paean to the death of obsolete technology ... which has the double irony of itself being an anachronism?

Forum almost dead. Going, if not gone, the same way as the BJC Forum, and even the BJA forum in the UK. Displaced by Facebook in the main.
