Farewell...

[Inspector Sands]

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?

I do agree with this, it would be good to set something up under a small committee. Maybe for the technical side & for the admin side of it. I know someone this morning mentioned they'd be happy to contribute to the finance side of things.

Could people remain anonymous too? That may help if a new forum become the target of similar sorts of abuse.

I've never used Reddit but that maybe sounds like a good option too? I know someone said they'd even nabbed the '/tvforum' section/room/site/whatever it's called.

Yes there seems to be a r/tvforum subreddit already, registered a year ago by a user called wonkey_donkey: https://www.reddit.com/r/tvforum/

I think Reddit would be a good way to go, and the other advantage is that the site already has plenty of outlets for political views and a lot of subreddits successfully ban all political posts. There are plenty of moderation tools
