Digging into BnR it seems sort of like the posters that were salivating for power in qcs when fyad got nixed so while I largely agreed with much of what was being said a lot of the ringleaders kind of had the shaun king "using sensitive subjects for personal gain" vibe so I dunno if a forum ran by them is the way forward.

Every so often some hot news about a progressive social group pops up and it turns out their leaders had schemed there way to the top and were at best financial scammers and at worst sex criminals and it's not a huge surprise because it always seems like the worst people are the thirstiest for power and sociopathic enough to use sensitive subjects as a bludgeon to beat down anyone that would oppose them. Seeing the people that left to start BnR really had that sort of vibe to it.

I dunno who I'd even want from SA to be the face of a new forum but it certainly wouldn't be the kind of people who specifically wanted an offsite for them to be in charge of.
