Default RC Exodus of Experts

Interesting. There is an exodus of experts on RC. Dr. Ron, Eric, and Anthony have all left and are no longer moderating their advanced forums on RC (at least for the moment). I guess they're going to set up a new Forum website by the looks of it. I haven't been following the threads leading up to this nor have I been using RC because of the disabled search functionality during peak times. But sounds like a pretty major development.

I hardly follow any of the forums on RC anymore, the volume of posts is too overwhelming to try to wade through. I have not been able to access the the search function for over a month now, and without the search function, the site is virtually useless. I can't be bothered to spend the time trying to do a manual hunt for some info there.

I think maybe RC has outgrown its usefulness.

Hm, I can't access that thread now. They must have locked it for review.

The RC mods are not tolerating a lot of discussion regarding this incident, and I have noticed a lot of censorship while trying to follow these developments with mild interest.

I'm afraid I have to agree with BMW Rider, although I would say the same thing but without the word "virtually". Without a search function and without any indexability into the knowledge base that exists there, any useful info remains locked up inaccessible.

From what I understand, I would not count on the experts returning. I applaud their integrity and solidarity. Hopefully their talents will not be at a loss to the online reefing community, we'll just have to hope we'll find them somewhere else eventually.

I've tried using RC before and have found it very large and daunting. The only time I can get the search function to work is late at night??

That's ok though.. I've find so much usefull information here at canreef (not to mention that everyone here is always nice and helpful unlike some other forums) and at nano-reef.com that I get just about all I need!
