Hello,

I don't know how accurate it is about forums dying. A forum I am a part of has enjoyed a resurgence as of late as people have gotten fed-up with Facebook's rules. As regards the AKA forum, the technical issues involved have been an hindrance. I do think perhaps the time is ripe to try an killifish email list again but ground rules will need to be established to try curtail the "jerk" problem. The demise of Killietalk was a multifaceted problem with the list admin coming under fire from multiple fronts making killing he list the simplest solution. We may not have this problem now as this incarnation is independent of the AKA. Never the less, setting up some sort of public mechanism to vote people off who are troublesome rather than leaving it to one list administrator might be one way to go.

I think the majority of AKA members and would-be-newbies are pretty tech-savy and could handle this platform. It is certainly easy to to use. I hadn't logged in in ages and had little difficulty finding this forum and replying.

Bye
