forum.
I can't really come on here and boss people around, probably the most egregious thing I could do would be to just redirect the site elsewhere. And as others have pointed out, a domain change is not that big of a deal in the long term (though short term it's a mess).
Sounds like a great idea for an April fools joke on theymos. Why should he have all the fun

Seriously though the current system is fine. I like that the forum still operates based on early loose partnerships and has grown from that. LoyceV has a good point though about succession when nature runs it's course, as I'm sure if it ever became available a certain disgruntled alt coiner may toss some of his millions(which he's not afraid to shout about having) at attempting to purchase it for purely unbiased information disbursement.
