The point behind dumping this forum isn't to take the fun posts away. The reason is to make it more difficult for troublemakers to stir up trouble. Sure, they're going to cause trouble from time to time in the other forums, but it's much easier to ban their email addresses, deactivate user accounts, etc.
Bottom line, there's just no reason for the public forum anymore. It's not that difficult to register and use the other forums. It's not like I require a DNA sample, just an email address and name.
