I'm not sure I understand this?
If you were to post something here and reference Basschat as a spot for better discussion wouldn't that motivate non member viewers to come AND CHECK OUT BC?
Bringing newbies too BassChat, not motivating them not too.
Every topic I have ever went to because of researching a topic and they reference anything, another site, an article, a past post and so on....I go to referenced 'site' and check it out.

My thought was we were moving to promote more activity not destroy BF.
Seeing so many visiters still come here DAILY I would think that it would guide people to BassChat, not deter them from going there.
That also will promote newbies (strangers) from joining the conversation and asking questions where here they can't.

BF.com will be destroyed whether we move or not. We cannot promote activity here without open registration.

If we continue to use both forums, as has happened in past attempts to move to BassChat, it won't work. The members will keep coming back here to post and BC will slip back into inactivity. It's happened a couple times already. That was why I stopped promoting the move. It isn't going to work unless we're all on board.

Like I said in my original post here, I will be discussing the possibility of "reminder" posts, probably made by a small group of members to keep things neat and refuel discussion here. For example, if we create a good thread on BC about say fishing deeper points in the heat of the summer, we would make a brief post about it here, with a link to the relevant thread on BC where potential members can actually join and share their thoughts, and probably a reminder not to post on the thread here.

Like in a zombie apocalypse, we will leave signs to guide survivors of the current membership and new potential members to our group at our new location.

Check out the thread on BC about leaving BF.com for the post I will be putting up tomorrow as the first sign leading to BC as well as my personal goodbye. I explained a bit about Yuku, but I can edit it and go into more detail if you and others think it's necessary. In reality, Yuku can be as simple as the forum here with no extra, or you can go as "social network" as you want with it. The biggest difference is, with a single username, you can access any public Yuku community/forum.

By the way, did you ever get your username/password issue worked out over there? If not, shoot me a PM here and we can see what we can do.
