As a former Talk Board member, I would argue in favor of disbanding the board. I think PremEx is right. Randy can get advice from whomever he wants whenever he wants.

The board had its purpose but its time has come and gone. I think my thoughts on this stem from the inability to support it sufficiently (not a criticism, just a fact-Randy is a busy guy.) or to implement its larger recommendations such as moderator guidelines (which were approved last winter by the way).

The board has largely gotten back into a friendlier tone (with some noteable exceptions). I am just happy that this board exists and will continue to support it in whichever whay I can, even if it was fee based. Thanks Randy for making this resource available to us.
