“That maybe fine for YOU but what about other members who may want the LAA to have have an interesting, dynamic, controversial forum”
The people in charge of the LAA had a choice. They could have continued to allow postings to be anonymous and employed moderation to keep control. This would have allowed a huge amount of control of criticism. Instead the decision was taken to only allow people to post under there own names. This has resulted in almost all criticism of the LAA being posted on boards where the LAA have no control at all. I think this was a mistake, but it is the LAA which is the loser.
If I want an opinion on maters LAA (not necessarily criticism) I ask the question on here or flyer. There are more LAA members on either board than on the LAA site.
