Degree Chat Closes

[Virtual Bison]

Anyone else remember an old discussion board called something like Online College Info? IIRC, the owner got tired of the constant threats by the clones every time someone posted something they didn't like, and eventually he just shut it down. You have to wonder if something similar happened again.

I noticed that The Sphincter was getting a good deal of attention there, and lurking about as well. That's just the sort of misogynist gutter snipe creep you would expect to be making cheap threats, although I wouldn't expect Sheila to be impressed.

Running any kind of message board is not easy. You have to watch it carefully otherwise the spammers or other riff raff will take over.

And you have to keep it interesting otherwise people get bored with it.

I tried putting togeter several message boards and they all failed, mostly due to lack of interest.
