Ahhh...so satisfying to see a meaningful conversation about not only the evolution of the board but the type of active members.

Like I said in the title post a VIP section or something along those lines would be a welcome refresher to this board without having to alter the hard work that has not only set the foundation for this forum but has also worked so well for so many years.

I know I've only been a part of this board for 2 years but I've been into DSM's for 5 (still not long) but I can recognize a need for change or for an evolution when I see it.

It takes money to make things happen and I know this forum could make good use of any extra cash flow generated by a donation to access this area , perhaps this possible private section and some new ideas to entice more DSM'ers will definitely give this forum the shot in the arm that is so desperately needs, failure to recognize and adapt will result in new members responding to every post and leaving after 4 months...
