Hi

Haven't been on in a while and was just wondering what happened to strom sisters as it seems to have disappeared :confused:

Cheers

How much trouble is it to leave a sub forum open? There may not be a lot of lady riders but the deserve a place to exchange communications.

"No one comes to a forum to talk to themself."


And then there is people like me!:surprise:
I dunno Tom, seems like not to inclusive. Although it may not be used often why shut down an avenue.
I'm just being an advocate here.
if there is cost factor of keeping it open, closing because of disuse would make sense.

FWIW it was killed Dec 27 2018. Over 5 months ago.
As far as I know this is the first time anyone commented about it which really proves the point that it isn't needed.

I did some house cleaning, the forum is quite large and cluttered with unused/dead sections.......more to follow.

When the master speaks, the subordinates can shut the f up.:surprise:

I got a response to a post from 2012. The date of origin doesn't show up on the post, just the date of the last entry.
A person seeing a post doesn't know the time frame until they notice it in responses.

We mods always do what we think is right for the forum. If 2 or more ladies approach asking for the section to be reopened, it will be.
There is no no need to turn belligerent.

As the staff have noted, mods and admins will clean up the forum if its deemed better for site health and removing clutter. As its been removed, and already noted if there is enough interest it will be reopened, it can be looked at if there is a larger push for it.

I don't know. It seems, on many forums, a lot of high post-count individuals love to talk (type) just to hear themselves speak (read their "brilliant" insights).

No question about that.

On the other hand if no one talks, if there isn't enough conversation going on, then the forum simply dies a slow death.

Strom Sisters was closed over 5 months ago and no one seemed to notice. not much point in having a forum if no one is posting there.

That's not how it works here at all......MODS/ADMINS are here for the members, and for keeping the forum running smoothly and to have sections available which get used and make sense. :smile2:

Thanks for the info

Guess that's the price you pay for being a minority group.
