Joel Channing Threatens to Shut Down the USCF Forums Unless the Forum
Members Behave Better

Don Schultz and I (and I believe a majority of the Board) are
committed to getting it right or declaring it a failed experiment in
civil discourse and shutting it down. We're trying to have free and
civil discourse. I have to admit that so far it looks like we may not
be capable of it, but you must remember that we don't have the freedom
of action to censor anything we want like you have in Susan's blog. We
have to talk the talk and walk the walk.

Then, as a joke, Joel Channing added:

Bill Hall, Mike Nolan, Joseph Nanna, Mike Carr, Randy Bauer, Frank
Camaratta, Grant Perks, Chuck Unruh and I have all conspired to
embezzle the $300,000 or so that we should have in our bank account
soon and take off for Djibouti, where $33,000 apiece should enable us
to live like kings for a few months. We haven't thought far beyond
that, but, as my rating is so low, it's about as far ahead as I can
think.
