As a lot of you probably noticed today, Greyson Chance Web has decided to relaunch their discussion forum and make it a priority of their fansite. They have had a forum as part of their site for quite a while (I think they established it after Greyson's official site took the one that was on there down), but very few people participated at all and the interface really wasn't great. Now, they've invested in what apparently is the best interface/software (whatever you want to call it) and are hoping to build up the community. So, now there are two of us.
The people that run the site have asked me whether we want to join up with them and make it one large forum/community. As of right now, I have no plans to shut down this site or to change anything about how the site is run. I have really enjoyed starting up this website and frankly will do it as long as people want to participate on here. Fans can then choose to visit here, their site, or both. The purpose of all the fan sites is to help promote and support Greyson and his fans and none of us are trying to start a "turf war."
Saying that though, if members overwhelmingly want to move their focus over to their site as the number one site, then I won't be offended. They do have a lot larger following and will probably be able to encourage a lot more participation from fans.
The only reason I am posting this topic is to get feedback from members about what they would prefer to see happen. If you have any thoughts about whether you would rather us continue as a separate site or if you'd rather see us throw our support and effort into the one large forum, then either let me know on here or PM me.
No decision will be made anytime soon b/c I have less that three weeks before the Bar Exam and that is by far my number one priority, but I figure this can be an ongoing discussion and I might as well address it now rather than wait until later.
Thanks for reading all of that
