I fully agree with everybody else that for discussion, a mailing list is much 
more interactive and quick than forums. And as someone else pointed out, this 
discussion is a perfect example of it. Once this list is gone, no more such 
goodness.

I have given a chance to the forums. They have been up for what now, close to 
two years? I was one of the first persons to register. But the vast majority of 
people stayed on the mailing list and this is much more convenient for all 
kinds of reasons that people have already mentionned here. Isn't that the proof 
that the mailing list is a better idea?

Don't you love it when you come into work on Monday morning and somebody *else* 
has decided how *you* are going to work?

The problem is, we feel a certain level of ownership over things we love, like 
RB, and when someone else messes with it without asking our opinion, we feel 
robbed. However, REAL is a private company and they are entitled to do anything 
they want with RB, including messing it up. Oh well.
