ome people think it’s not in good shape. In all seriousness, what on earth would make you guys say this?
IMO, it’s active (MUCH more than other sites...and as much as before), clean and very productive. 
Suggestions? I make no promises, other than everything will be read and considered.
Or possibly praise, God forbid.

I like it, have no problem with it, other than I am not getting what I want!
Seriously though, it seems that it moves at the pace it wants to, and that there are times when it ebbs and times when it flows, peaks and valleys.

If you look at identical threads started here and at BA, BA gets way more traffic. I know they have all that BIF stuff clogging the forum, but I am talking about carbon copies of the same products. I have been using that forum more than RB. Sorry, but true.
90 percent of my trades here are the behind the scene variety.
One recent example was two threads posted here on rate beer at the same time in two different forums. FREE DL was the header. The listing on the main forum got plenty of resonses and views, the one on the trade forum saw a fraction.
FT and ISO should never have been taken off the main page. It was an experiment that failed IMO.
Do whatever you want...there are other options available.

I have no problem with it. I just watch the minutes as to when the last post was made to read recent posts now.

I started using the forums here after that change, so maybe my opinion on the subject is a tad uneducated.

I tired to like it this new way, honestly I did - but I just don’t. Fortunately I’ve pretty much decided to cease dealing outside of Canada for a while - Irishboy and my Porterhouse Celebration Stout offer notwithstanding.
It’s too late to put it back the way it was, and it’s going to pretty much stay a "my top 50 sexybeer for ....?" fest for the foreseeable future.
Sad.

Maybe, but that’s more a reflection of the times and community than the forum...

You used to be able to see each trade post on the "preview bar" to the left, so you knew when something was posted.

Only that the thread titles were taken off the front forum page.
