We've made a few changes to the forum boards tonight, and there will likely be a few more over the coming days.
The Current Affairs board is now archived and read-only. It was introduced nearly a year ago in response to member demand, but it's evident that it has brought little (if anything) positive to what is first and foremost a smallholding website and forum. Thanks to all who contributed to the experiment, if I ever suggest opening it up again you have my permission to shoot me.
Please do not post threads related to politics, current affairs, elections, referenda or other similar topics on the forum - there are plenty of current affairs forums out there for the purpose. We will remove any such threads.
We'll be making other changes to better reflect the site's roots and its core purpose, which is helping and supporting anyone with an interest in smallholding. Some other boards have been moved or renamed to better reflect their purpose.
