I think Jefe has finally figured out that CG is not going to drive CB into the ground, thereby ending Jefe's dreams of financial independence.

He must be starting to agree that this is something DIFFERENT, not a replication.

He must also see that most of us here still maintain a presence there.

And for the most part, we are not doing too much tracting and hard-sell tactics.

I can't say I ever really feared that...

I really don't see how it's different, other than that you allow what is (in my opinion) inappropriate discussion, and the interface is not really to my liking.

That, my friend, is the difference. Before, you were (actually mostly your users, not you) trying to advertise on CougarBoard. A relevant reference here or though is perfectly fine. Just don't advertise.

In fact, perhaps I could just forward certain people over to this site and let you deal with them.

No, thank you. Please keep your Dixie Cougar and Johnny Lingo to yourself. :lol:

This is one critcism that I just don't understand. I really haven't seen it, though this attitude has been expressed by people on your board several times. It is my opinion that most who state what you stated haven't actually been here. There have been a very few instances of inappropriate discussion here. I'd venture to say that the incidence of inappropriate discussion is lower here than it is on your site.

The one thing that this interface has over CougarBoard is that the threads don't disappear after 5 minutes. You could improve the CougarBoard interface ten-fold if you included a feature that gave users the option of having updated threads float to the top. Currently there is very little ability for prolonged discussion on any topic. What you mostly have now is a lot of attention-thirsty weenies shouting into the wind. People there are now more concerned with quantity of posts rather than quality of posts.

I don't mean this as a criticism. It is the result of the increased popularity of CougarBoard. As CougarBoard got more popular, things started moving faster. Now things are moving entirely too fast.
