Thanks again Chris,

I had some correspondence with Malcolm a a few years back and he made it clear that the workload he had dealing with vexatious forum members was a real bane (including personal threats and the involvement of the police in one instance!). Agree it would be great to get a lot of new enthusiastic members but if the membership is relaxed then someone will the unpleasant job of dealing with all the (unfortunately inevitable) aggravation.

Personally I'm resigned to the idea that we are seeing out the twilight (of the ttwebsite/forum). It's been dwindling for years probably in direct correlation to the demographic (also unfortunately due to quite a few of the contributors not longer being with us) - and I assume younger fans are not really engaged (enthused?) with the forum format.

For $150- I think it's worth keeping the website - just for posterity - but I'm OK with just retaining the forum too if that's what the majority wants.

I'd be happy if we have a forum to log in this TT - anything else is a bonus.
