"Goodbye forums."

That's what some people seem worried about at this precise moment.

Let me re-assure you, as a customer of Special Reserves, I feel extremely confident that the forums will not be closed down permanently.

As Snuggly said, Security hasn't actually been anything to worry about from SR's side for the way the accounts were stolen was not to do with hacking.

From a business point of view, many MANY non-customers become customers after joining the boards (from seeing the Gameaday competition for the reviews) and the proceed to buy products through the website.

If it wasn't for these forums (and the old GAD competitions) I probably wouldn't have been a continuous member for the 5+ years I've been registered as a paying customer.

Sure, I'd probably buy the odd item, but wouldn't have bothered with membership, nor would I have stuck to UKgames.com to buy stuff to save the price of a pint on a game.

If it does happen, I'd be very suprised. It wouldn't be beneficial to anyone, except to those who want to cause mayhem for a virtual trophy or a claim to ill-fame.

Sheepy you were good in the old days :D

Meh. I barely post anymore, I trust cruise through a few select forums, read the posts that interest me, reply to the ones that really interest me and ignore the idiot forums. It keeps me happy.
