but besides not being able to get in easily, what has changed? People were banned and it's being called a "mass" ban. How many were actually banned? There are a few vocal ones on RDP that are all pissed off (funny, many were constantly pissed off and antagonistic here), but I'm not seeing a huge number banned. I'd check PB, but their forum doesn't currently work.
With only a few exceptions, my enjoyment of ***boat forums isn't lessened by the banned posters being gone. Things may change, but right now.... it's not bad.
