James was very upset at exchanges between members and the constant battle to prevent the 'Wam getting sued. Evidently there was a very heated argument about swearing (I think) and James decided to pull the plug.
Although I much prefer AOS there was lots of nice, knowlegable people on the 'Wam who, I hope, will migrate to AOS. Anything Marco and the mods can do to encourage them should be applauded.

Re the comment on Scalford. Its a bloody long way for me (and half the country). If AOS did a show it should be Midlands or Birmingham area.
