If you had to pick one or more things you think killed the forums, aside from the fact the owners are closing them, what would they be?


Edited to make the poll - which allows multiple answers - and the description in my post agree a little more.

Furries are like Hitler. Hitler and Lenin, at the same time.

Uhm, Jeremiah. You said one thing, yet your name shows up on four of those choices!


That's what really killed the forums, not following directions! :mad:

My bad, I meant to reword my description since I decided allowing more than one answer made sense. I have edited the first post. Due to this fact, the Repulicans will probably claim voter fraud at the end of the poll.

I had to vote for... damn, forgot. But I always blame it on the butler. You didn't have the most obvious choice listed!
