Everyone has disappeared. I, too, come back rarely and hope to see more action but they basically killed UB. A total bummer. [ Reply | More

Schools is the only board still getting traffic on this site. All the chatter is over on YBM. [ Reply | More

YBM is great for Special Needs -- all the moms were horrified by the multi-posters who were hostile and deranged, and moved over there. [ Reply | More

the problem is that the most answered posts stay on top so you miss other posts [ Reply | More

Actually, I was thrilled when UB implemented that and only "watched" in that mode. The real problem is multi board posting. [ Reply | More
