Actually I have to disagree with you there.
The crucial role BS has come to occupy is as an intersection point connecting
LUGNET, MOCPages, Blogs, Classic-Castle, EuroBricks, BrickWiki and the dozens of
other websites that have chosen (by accident or design) to integrate content
created by AFOLs via BS.
Without all the above BS would have never become the hub it did. Without BS
perhaps all the above would never have become what they are.
But this discussion is about the future and based on the events of the past week
and the posts made by Kevin and others I do not think a reasonable person would
emerge without at least some legitimate concerns regarding the future stability
of BS.
Of course that is just my opinion and obviously you (and others) do not share
it. I will not attack you for your opinions on this nor am I going to speak ill
of those who choose to continue to use BS. I respectfully request you do the
same.
