Thanks for the kind words, but a decision like this only makes people feel very unwelcome.

Work to get rep points, work to win an election. I am putting out a sign in my yard right now that reads

VOTE TEAMSELIG FOR ORG

I need a campaign manager.
No.

Ridiculous is watching you complain, over and over, that this message board, for which you pay nothing and perform no work to maintain, doesn't fit your needs. How terrible it must be for you to be trapped here by the cruel, heartless Redszone gaolers, unable to rop and frolic in the grassy meadows of the internets!

Well, TeamSelig, I checked our dungeons and made sure the door to your cell is unlocked. You can feel free to leave any time you like.

That's the nature of the beast. Their board, their whim. It's not for us to say how often changes can or should be made. We're just here for the ride. I'm sure compiling the list of the new ORG wasn't easy, but a line had to be drawn somewhere. Unfortunately for us, we're on this side. I'm over it.

Well, as long as I am loved here. I am just giving feedback and asking questions, just like the thread says.

I'm not aware of message boards that 'charge' to join.

Sorry to have riled up the mods, I'm just a little frustrated thats all.

Sons of Sam Horn (a regulated Red Sox forum) *does* charge their members once they are given access to the main baseball forum, FWIW.

Sons of Sam Horn comes to mind immediately. And on top of it, they have to pay to be a member.

You guys have done a great job creating the site, and keeping out ******** people. I'm not taking that away from you. I'm not sure why anyone would ever pay to post on a message forum though.. lol Those stupid Sox fans, I guess...

Because someone has to pay for the hosting fees and it really ought not be the folks that are also donating their time to create/moderate/manage the site.

Personally, I'm shocked and appalled they didn't re-name the "Reds Live" forum as "Screwball", after the lovable and long-standing poster who bears that name.

I have another example.

JJ Huddle, a board which discusses Ohio high school sports is free to read, but charges $10 to register, and registration is required for posting. In addition, they require that registered members post at least once every 90 days to retain their membership. If you don't post during that 90 days, you have to pay $10 to register again.

I bet. The forum name decision came down to a final three of SunDeck, Javy Pornstache, and Boobhat.

Sorry about your luck.
