Why was thread moved?[Disappointing future for the PH forum]

[AndrewEH1]

Was the information in the thread not for general consumption?

Seems that way but it comes as no surprise I suppose, there has been a lack of positive feedback re any thing new or any solutions to ongoing concerns/problems.

At least one member of staff had the decency to try and communicate that with forum members.

So business as usual then

This thread will soon be closed as well I suspect.

Anybody Screen grab it ? , Read it then refreshed only for it to vanish .. RIP @PistonHeads if correct

Didn't see it, but who online knows.

Even if the current owners don't want to run the site anymore I would be amazed if they couldn't sell it to a 3rd party.

With the adverts and volunteer moderators it should be a very stable site.

Nope, although from memory Jack and KateM (?) are going to try and push through as many fixes/improvements before the team is completely disbanded.

It didn't appear that Jack was too happy with is situation. I may have disagreed with the management recently but the staff that have remained have clearly been trying.

I know. It was a post around one of the higher ups stating that the forums will not be developed, maintained nor enhanced for the foreseeable due to resource constraints.

in short Haymarket stating that it's not a priority. They should remember that unique visitors to this site leads revenue.

I chose to lead or be involved in a revolution / mutiny. Still stands!

Just hope Jack doesn't get into trouble for posting.

You might not have seen my response to your post, but happy to be involved on the Community/Writing, non IT expert side.

The information was posted in a restricted forum, and was not for general discussion.

The OP should have had the courtesy to ask for permission to do so.
