i went thru same about 18 months ago was a reg poster on a local forum , when things started getting bitchy between members it caused a lot of arguments and the admin said they were gna pull the plug, so i went off and created a forum, most of the regulars joined , the other forum stayed up and running members drifted between both but i'm pleased to say my little place is still doing well

and i go on the other site and post too .
guess what i'm trying to say is as long as ppl continue to make the effort to post this place will continue to grow, and its a great place to be so i'm sure this time next year we'll be celebrating its 1 st birthday xxxxx
Sometime you just have to hold your head up high, blink away the tears and say good-bye.
