Don't worry Emma, the events that lead to all that nonsense are behind us now, and the dust has settled.
The Forum will continue FOREVER!, as the all-powerful and all-knowing Dave and Ian have realised that they cannot keep effective control of us, 'Their Flock', without the Forum!
More seriously, I think those who replied made many good points about the rich value of the Forum.
A bit more advertising revenue would be great, and a few more GUESTS turning into CONTRIBUTORS would be even better.
All Hail to Dave R and Ian.... L0L
