For many reasons, I would agree with others that a separate forum is not needed. If you create one for Wolfeboro, then what about Meredith, Center Harbor, Laconia, Melvin Village, Ossipie, etc.?
Also, except when I am creating a thread, I rarely pay attention to which forum the post is in. Like many, I read the forums by tracking via the New Post button.
Finally, the reason for the demise of the aforementioned sites, and others like them, has been mentioned. They were poorly moderated and became soapboxes and podiums for a few opinionated individuals who had too much free time on their hands. After awhile it was more trouble and pain to visit than to ignore.
This is why I strongly support the goals to keep these forums solely focused on Lakes Region topics, and politely ask that the political and unrelated opinions go elsewhere.
Don continues to do an outstanding job. We shouldn't make it harder for him. He might just decide that the massive salary is no longer worth it.
