Meanwhile they continue to operate a general discussion sub-forum: forums.pcworld.com Given how litigious the US can be, it seems especially sad that FFX's lawyers feel the risk here is too great to allow a community to moderate itself. Because of course when you do what they feel they need to do, you essentially kill the community. US PC World obviously values it community and manages the risk. The appear to have a small (5,6) group of moderators, for a total forum membership and activity much greater than F1.	Bonzo the Wonder Chimp (2952)

In comparison you would think this forum bland indeed. Is it a technical forum owned and operated by a "publishing giant"? If not, then they can't be compared. www.idgcsmb.com Do not engage in off-topic political or religious discussion.
