His referring to Scott Gordon as "Scottie dog" is the zenith of Scratch's prowess, and unquestionably rendered Mr. Gordon and friends at FAIR immoveable with fear. ;-)

Wow, Wade! I had no idea you thought so highly of me! Do you really think (ulp) that I played some role in all of this?

This is the best decision they have made in years.

My hat is off to them.

I only wonder if they will be starting from scratch or transferring all archived discussions to the new board.

Hi Mister Scratch,

Since the "FAIR" Message Board is going to be moving to a new URL pretty soon, does this mean that all of us who got banned on the "FAIR" Message will still be banned, or will we get to post on the new Message Board?

You know, I was wondering exactly the same thing! (Cue rimshot)

Brackite: I have no idea. If it is Dan G. or juliann running the show, then my guess is that we will not be allowed in the door.

Does this say it all or what?

Message boards are a valuable discussion medium, but the format does not universally appeal to people who come to FAIR looking for answers.
In other words, not the answers one expects to hear. They operate just like the TSCC. Now, shut up and sing.

Still banned from the new site and unable to gain access.

I assume they are running off the same server as that Itchy blog down in Arizona.

An update: Dan_G has announced that those who have been banned will still be banned. Also, there appears to be some speculation as to whether or not old, embarrassing threads will be deleted. I guess we'll have to wait and see.
