I enjoy reading the site.. though I’m not adiccted. I feel that the forum takes quite a bit of energy to post and read.. The format of it doesn’t really fit anything I’m used to – and the font size and colors make it hard for me to read.
I know Rich is busy, but I can’t wait to see an updated more message board like forum 😉 Is one coming? It would make it easier to recognize users if there were avatars and it would be easier to understand post context if there were better quoting and reply functionality. I think the forum usability is sacrificed in it’s ‘style’ – that is, fitting within the width and functionality of the site..
Overall though it’s minor compared to post quality and good users.. it’s really hard to get forums rolling, it requires critical mass – and with a niche subject like this Rich has done an impressive job.
