Is it my imagination or are there really fewer posts on this site since the new forum software was introduced?

Many were not arguing for argument sake. They were stirring up nonsense and posting malicious thoughts to invoke hostility in areas where sensitivity was most likely the best medicine. Dialog is not dialog unless everyone gets a shot at expressing his or her 10 cents worth. I BELIEVE IN THIS FREEDOM! Conversely, dialog is not found in posts that are written solely for the sake of inciting anger and hostility among the members and guest who read these posts. It falls under the framework of agitation. And, lets everyone be perfectly honest here...we all know that MANY of the past anon posts were written simply to stir up nonsense! Now, at least we have a decent shot at limiting the trees these anon posters can hide behind.
For this....I am glad the forum changed....
