Default Question on redoing this forum?

Taking into consideration the other poll, and given the limited activity in this forum, should we open this up to anything Post WWII all the way to 2012 etc......(modern stuff)? Just want to see the thinking of folks who actively participate in this forum. As I look down the front page there are about 2 1/2 weeks of threads on the front page...which means there isn't a terribly lot of new threads.

I vote no. I think modern should be its own forum.

Default Voted No

Leon, I voted NO, although I don't have a strong opinion about it either way. I primarily collect Post War up until 1979. My only really concern is these forums turn into some of the other modern sites, which frankly come off like a bunch of punk kids running around. What I appreciate most about this site, is how well its run, and the fact that everyone can constructively debate/discuss cards, without it getting out of hand.

Thanks so far guys. This is why there aren't knee jerk decisions made on the board. If you really would participate and want another forum for the modern stuff please post so in this thread. If there isn't enough interest we won't make one. No worries either way...and I voted I don't care .

And I don't see any forum on Net54baseball going the way I see some other forums going, Matt.

I don't really have anything against modern but would hope it could be in its own forum; I suspect it will have more action eventually than the post war stuff.

FWIW-I actually think this forum is getting a decent number of posts and it looks to be growing.

I agree with keeping it like it is. A narrow focus might have a smaller crowd, but it's a much more invested group. Make the focus too large and you'll find all sorts running in and out with no continuity.
