in response to james miller's announcement about the new
changes to the site, i do agree the site needed some
trimming around the edges but not like this.
i still feel that having individual boards for each pda was
unique and helpful in navigation. there were plenty of
boards that could and should have been taken off the
site as not very useful without removing all the boards
and it's content.
being a moderator of many of the boards that use to
exist, i still do not feel that this will cut down on posts
that "fell through the cracks" as james put it.
if ebay can implement a system for weeding out the bad
and making sure they cannot re-register on the system,
i feel pdastreet could have done the same. i may be wrong
as pdastreet may not have the financial resources or
otherwise as ebay has but i do know how easy it was to
suspend a user only to have them resign up again without
a problem.
just my two cents.
