Hopefully the forums will keep going and its good to see that Jon Warren has found a partial solution to the problems he has been having at MPT. However, I think that it is only a matter of time before someone sues over comments made on one of the forums. The only question is who will be sued - the writer of the post or the list owner or both. There have been many unsubstantiated claims and negative comments about various individuals on MPT over the last month or so and I can understand Jon taking action. It is certainly good to inform others of potential problems but any comments should always be factual and not speculation. This business is quite small and I dont think it would be difficult for someone to demonstrate that they have been defamed.
Regards
John

Subject: Re: [MOPO] MoPo's Survival

Scott and fellow MOPOs,
 
I cannot agree more. It is very sad and a huge loss to see two other great forums dedicated to movie posters disappear. Both forums went dead almost at the same time. Strange, to say the least but our group has been around for over 10 years, myself being a member around 6-7 years. I just became a member of Jon Warren's group and I was extremely delighted to see a membership of over 2,000 members. There were some great topics and I enjoyed the possibility to add pictures in posts. The set up of the forum was a great addition to MOPO. I hope Jon could set it up differently with less day to day supervision. In any case, it is a loss for all us poster collector addicts worldwide.
 
Again let's congratulate Scott our team on the last ten years and let's make sure we are here for another 10 years.
 
Long Live MOPO,
 
Philipp
