The downfall of the PSA boards.

[chaddurbin]

the "psa board" is like some inside joke that only 5 people get. most here could care less about CU or what goes on there (or anything happening after 1942). on the other side i don't think most CU members can differentiate a '14 CJ from a '15...so i'm not sure what the mass exodus over here would accomplish?

maybe you guys can go post on the postware side and beef it up.

if they don't know, perhaps some/most will stick around long enough to learn. Unless you fell out of bed one day and suddenly knew all there was to know about CJs, you had a learning curve, too.

Drama ebbs and flows in any online community. This isn't the first time acrimony from CU has spilled over here and it won't be the last. It has already been pointed out that there is a new mod on CU, and he/she is being very aggressive in enforcing the recently posted Forum Rules. There was a wave of bannings on Tuesday (that I myself was temporarily caught up in), and I'm sure there will be more. That is going to lead to mode new members seeking a place where there is a little more latitude. Some will quickly find this isn't the place for them, while others will stick around and learn new things.

As anyone can see, I joined back in '09, mostly to finish my T206 Superbas set. Once I finished I stopped coming around. When I got hit with the banhammer on Tuesday, I came back on to check things out. I quickly joined a few discussions and started learning. I'm glad I did. I plan/hope to stick around and become more knowledgable about prewar. Be patient with me and other CU refugees - we're not all bad seeds.
