What a poor decision. The forums are horrible to manage, compared to a decent
mailing list.

great way to kill a community

No doubt. After a while away from using RB, I have another project, and so signed back up for the NUG yesterday, only to find out it is going away.

Forums work well for those who ask questions. Mailing lists work well for those who answer them. Smart people who need questions answered realize that.

Unless they are getting paid for it, most veteran users will not peruse the forums looking for questions they can answer.

So congratulations Real, you'll have a huge forum full of unanswered questions.
