| True. Maybe only 10k posts can be by each member or something? | ||||

Join Date: Dec 2005 Posts: 82 Location: California, USA | Just a heads up, I read on another forum that the owner of Big-Boards is currently hiring people to help clear out (review) the backlog of forums. He admits that things fell through, but is trying to work things out now. Just thought I'd let you know. | ||||

| I would like to see something like this happen. I talked to Quentin (owner of B-B) long ago and tried to buy the site from him. He wasn't looking to sell at the time. I think a more accurate and updated alternative would be a nice resource.

| I am glad so many of us have approved of this idea. (Not just here, but on other websites as well.) I already have a great design in mind and many nice tools and ideas. I don't think this site will be limited to just big forums. The listing (that will be able to be sorted in many different ways) will start, of course, with the biggest forums, and then work its way down as the list gets larger. I don't think I will allow any forum on the list, however. I wouldn't want people adding forums that are a day old with little or no activity and customization. There will be restrictions, but far less restricted than Big-Boards, perhaps. Also, does anyone have any name ideas for this?
