Reasons for jumping ship:

1. I want to increase traffic on the GO board, because Disney is starting a huge marketing campaign for the GO Network. The GO Network's Money page lists active message boards, and with Linda and myself added to the GO Pixar board Pixar has been consistently listed as one of the most active message boards in GO's Money section. I am hoping that this combination of Disney marketing and Pixar visibility will feed a little fuel to the Pixar rally.

2. The SI board is subscription-only, and this limits the number of posters. Although it also gives SI higher-quality posters, the GO board has an "ignore poster" feature (which Yahoo doesn't have - see below).

3. The Yahoo board can get really insane at times with juvenile name calling.

4. I've also gone to the Raging Bull board, but it doesn't have the Disney ties or volume of posts that the GO board has.
