You should have been a member of Redux if that's what you wanted. That was as anarchist as they come i'm sure. But it's closed now I think and those members such as Rob Filth and Sherbertlemon have formed another forum.

The Leisure Hive is the place to go now. Not all of redux followed and I am not going into to polatics of what happened either. Lets just say the closure was not foreseen by all but 2 members.
As for LM, well the rules are very relaxed now. In fact you can even swear and the filters will just add a few ** here and there so sensitive members don't feel offended. Think proboards should update a filter option for no filter, intermediate filter and full filter for members to decide.
As for another forum I would say no. I believe in a support each other idea. I would travel more here and on TFF if I did not have to spend so much time trying to get some intrest going on LM.
As for Dictatorships well LM has never been that. Admit has been over moded in the past and that was not just at one group of members. I idea is to learn from mistakes. Talking about changes learning from them and moving on, I even emailed Soldeed to tell him he was welcome back but have heard nothing.
Oh and I promote healthy heated debates about New Who and RTD as they generate the most contrast in views.

Yeah, 'Soldeed' got sick of the Internet and left altogether; shame really, despite his silliness he was a top bloke. Atleast we parted as friends.
I actually wasn't saying that LM is a dictateship. I had another site in mind which isn't a Doctor Who forum.

It was more of a soviet dictatorship in my personal opinion. It wasn't nearly as liberal as it though it was. Leftism does not mean liberality or anarchy for that matter.

Why not get involved in giving LM a re-vamp and actively seeking new members? I know that you were not impressed with the changes we made over on The Final Frontier, but the forum has been quite active today. I adverise in SFX every now and again, and I really recommend you and John do the same. It brings in a few new members who have different opinions and some of them have become regulars on TFF. SFX adverts are free and if you go to the SFX site, you will find an e-mail link to send them your free ad. What have you got to lose? It may get you more involved and revive your interest again. How much it cost?
