It's a great post. Well written, well reasoned. It would give me pause were I the one making this sort of decision.

*lifts glass* ... here's to hope!

Wonderful post. I really wish it would change the minds of the ones who do not wish to do this job anymore but after all the begging, reasoning, etc that has gone on here they maintain their silence and give us blog links in answer to keeping them open.

Thank you for posting that Joshua. It was great of you to go to bat for us all.

Great post. My feelings exactly. However I was too upset to write it in the wonderful way you did. Well done. :-)

Lindens, if you ever read this, please believe we wouldn't think less of you for changing your minds about the forums. Really, we won't call you back-peddlers or wishy washy! We might even allow our faith in you to be restored!

Thanks for the great post, Joshua. At least we went out fighting...

Fingers crossed the forums can stay, they are an essential part of SL.

*sneaks back in to include relevant post from the Attention Lurkers thread*

From: Jamma Newt
a lurker till the last few days... the forums were what made me feel like i was part of something in the beginning, not just a lone avatar playing with prims in yet another 3D modeller

sadly, i've been visiting a lot of the other outside forums and i have to say it just feels fractured. we'll never get the broad cross-section of SL's diversity anywhere else that we have here.
