[quote="DACP"][quote="nolan"]It is not an accurate re****t of the
Delegates Meeting to say that the Delegates voted to keep the Forums
open.
A Delegate motion to mandate closing the Forums failed, but that
failed vote does not bind the USCF to keeping the Forums open, as the
Delegates have not mandated that.
However, I think the Forums serve a useful, though too frequently
abused, purpose.[/quote]
Okay, Mike, I will agree with your depiction of the vote. However, a
motion failing to close the forums would seem to be a clear indication
that the delegates intention was to keep the forums open. If these
forums are closed down, it will be determined by others as to whether
that interpretation is an accurate one.[/quote]
It is also significant that at the Delegate's Meeting in Cherry Hill
there were only one or two votes to close down the Forum, one of them
being Joel Channing. The vote to keep this forum open was virtually
unanimous.
He and SP seem to be the only ones now who want to close down the USCF
Issues Forum.
