Dominated by "group-think" that newest Wolfeboro forum screens every new applicant for "correctness", while limping along with a handful of posts—per week. Just like here, the majority of members don't reside in Wolfeboro!

At Wolfeboro's oldest forum, I spent all last evening discussing the tearful renditions of female vocalist Iris Dement—something I am not permitted to do here.


Exactly right. A forum for Wolfeboro can receive its own, distinct, URL—and be independently self-moderating.

As to certain constraints, I've no gripe with even heavy moderation—in an official capacity—I've done it myself!

I've effectively started a "new" Wolfeboro forum—from an old one—and it's picking up.

Those old Wolfeboro forum posts are still archived. To a suggestion of mine, member Rusty—writing as Admin—posted a "thanks" at the Lakes Region forum he suddenly dissolved voluntarily.

The second attachment shows that sympathy could be found in abundance in Wolfeboro.

I wasn't banned from that site, Acres. I did not care to join with the people that were there and are still there. The moderator asked me to join but it was all liberal politics and I did not care to join.
