With the demise of the Open Forum, the U.S.Coin Forum has, in my opinion, seen an increase in activity although it has always beem quite active. Since many of you post on the NGC boards, have you seen an increase in activity there as well? I've been a member there for several years, but I've not once posted to a thread and I rarely lurk anymore.

    I think that activity here (USCF) has been fairly stable, but there are a few regular posters here whose activity has diminished considerably since the demise of the Open Forum.

    I think that the NGC boards have been largely unaffected by the Open Forum shuttering.

    I have notice very little newly incoming traffic at NGC due to the closing of the OF.

    My observations are in line with Tom's. For those of you who don't visit the NGC Boards, you're missing a lot of interesting discussion, including recent threads by former members here that shed some light in dark corners.

    RYK - You are probably right now that I think about it. There have been more posts by a few individuals who spent most of there time on the Open Forum. However, there have been others who have since been banned or altogether left the USCF.

    IGWT - Excellent point and so true.

    For those of us who don't post there, but would like to read about these dark corners, could you provide links? Could be difficult to find otherwise. Thanks.
