Doesn't seem to be too unwiedly at the moment, and easier to use than
web based chat rooms too!



It got too unwieldy when two individuals used it to endlessly post
derogatory messages, mainly about the BCU, and swamped all else. The users'
forum is controlled, so that doesn't happen.

It didn't bother me too much as I just set up some appropriate filters, but
others apparently didn't/couldn't get that to work, and departed.

Since I too don't like online forums, and prefer newsgroups, it doesn't get
any input from me, and I rarely can be troubled to go and see whether there
is anything. I can sympathise though.

(The big difference - newsgroups come to you, you have to go to forums.)
