Due to circumstances beyond your control, this Board will be shut down starting Sept 1. It will be available after that as "read-only." The new board is at http://206.86.100.18:8080/bjackvance, and can more easily be moderated. Here are some points:
1) You cannot "subscribe" to get all messages emailed to you, which I know is of great benefit to those of you who pay to surf, but I'm hoping they'll heed my suggestion to add that feature. They do have an optional email notification when your message gets a reply.
2) You can specify how many headers per page to see, so you won't be loading a huge amount of text each time.
3) You can edit or delete your own messages.
4) There are currently five different forums, and I can add and delete them at will.
5) Registration is required. I know so of you won't like this, but it does cut down on the spam. We get several spams a week here, which I try to delete right away.
6) There are banner ads outside of my control, which I hate.
Any comments or suggestions are welcome here, there (preferably), or via email.
