I guess an alternative is not a
problem as long as it doesn't end up being full of trash or end up with loads
of porn on it or mindless drivel. As you may or may not know I moderate MPF,
myself and the majority of its members consider it to be a professional forum,
with advertising which is no way to be fround out, I know one person that does
as he brings it up a fair amount of time but that is because they have tried it
and failed and still have the nerve to talk about it like it's a sin which is
in itself hypocritical.
Mopo can't be moderated except for banning people as it is a mailing
list/discussion group and not a forum. But I love it and have been a member for
years as it is civilised 99% of the time. I know very little about Scott as he
rarely posts or gets involved, not too sure what else he is involved with if
anything at all but MoPo works and is a total success in my eyes, god forbid
anything happening to Scott or we're screwed, I hope he has a backup generator
:-)
My only word of advice is outline any rules right from the off and moderate it
when required or you will just end up with a very amateur forum full of
playground antics, Also turn a blind eye to any 2-faced people you may
encounter along the journey...This is from 4+ years of Movie Poster forum
ownership and experience...Best of luck Thiery and Holiday with the new forum
venture. I won't be
joining, that isn't because of any fears of competition, my priority is to
concentrate on MPF and it can be time consuming sometimes.
I am a new generation Movie Poster Collector with an old head on, it doesn't
have to be one or the other and it doesn't have to be judge or be judged, we
live in the year 2009, a civilised era!? Let’s make 2010 civilised too.
Anyway, I'm sure most mopo'ers are bored of all this forum talk now and want to
talk about movie posters so I'll get off my soap box now.
