The future of this autograph forum

So my vote would be to keep things where they are, and assume that regular posting will resume once the dust settles.

Leon, if serious about rolling the Autograph forum back into the memorabilia forum, it might be a really good idea to let the primarily Memorabilia focused members weigh in on whether they support that action. I have my own ideas as to what their overwhelming response is going to be. And I have to agree with Shelly in that Jim Stinson, like myself, was a relative newcomer to this forum (although I personally value Jim's opinions and experiences above my own).

Just my two-cents worth.

Not sure why the question was even asked. This forum has far more posts and views then any of the others. If some people leave, so be it, others will come and life goes on.

I'd vote to keep it separate so that the rancor here doesn't infect the memorabilia section.

The latest series of events proves this section needs to be segregated from the rest...

Leon,

I'm with the majority. Keep it separate for all the above reasons.

Is a signature required to cast a vote on this thread?

Segregated and quarantined.

LOL

While I agree personal attacks and incivility should not be tolerated, is it really that bad here?

I've seen much, much worse elsewhere, and even at it's most vitriolic, this section is relatively tame.

Wouldn't it be kinda boring if we all agreed and sang Kumbaya all day long? We have some passionate people here... it's going to lead to dust ups.

Jeeze Zip why do you always want to start a fight
