Hello,

I wanted to base my response on figures that the Top 25 would reveal, but alas Top 25 & the Viewer Profiles are gone.

IMHO, the Discuss Forum, although stated as non-genealogical has become a "lightning rod" for subjects not conducive to the type of dialogue AfriGeneas was seeking. Within the last year or so the sense of family found on the other Boards has been absent from the Discuss Forum.

Again, in my humble opinion I would rather see the Discuss Forum, in the present format, be discontinued rather than have it (Discuss) cast a negative light on the many wonderful contributions found in ALL other aspects of the AfriGeneas Website.

Yours for a better AfriGeneas,

Art Thomas
