That's the way I deduce the situation. There are a certain group of people that revel in 'outrage' for the any perceived slight. Very curious.

Gregory:

Where did you get the information that the other forum was "hyjacked"?
I throught from reading John Finn's post that the owners decided to
offer some additional features to their users that was not available on
Yahoo. I could be wrong but that is what I thought I read. If the
owners decide to go another direction I don't see how that is hijacking.

Either way that forum is not closing. According to John the
information will still be available on that site but you will not be
able to post.

I agree the information is too valuable to lose but according to John
that is not the case.
