Sad to see the forum close down, especially so soon, but I can completely understand the reasoning behind the decision.
I really do hope that we find a new home somewhere for us to come together and continue the legacy of both TV Forum and TV Live Forum.
And on that note, I wonder if Reddit would be a good option? I realise it's not the perfect answer as we'd need multiple subreddits to replace the sub-forums we have here, but they're a lot easier to run (especially technically) and have the advantage of having the site wide mods and admins for when that's needed. It also has the advantage of allowing admins to come and go without having to set up a whole new platform each time.
For those discussing Discord, I vote against it. Discord is a great platform, but it is very much more of an instant messenger. I find threads of converstation hard to follow on it as they inevitably end up getting mixed within several other threads of conversation.
If we do go down the traditional forum route, I'm wondering if it be better having a small group of people come together to run the new forum instead of having one person bear all the responsibility?
