Default AMA to close the AMA Discussions Forum

Good, Bad, Don't care? In any case this is from the minutes of the AMA July EC meeting:

AMA On-line Forum[/b]
The ED reported the forum was created some time in 2009. It has almost 2700 members and out of that, 2350 have made one post or less; and 90% of those posts come from 10 members. The proposal is to close the AMA forum; it is believed this can be done now because the blog system is now up and running. The blog system is a quicker way to get better information to our members; and eliminates the potential for conversations to get dragged off track. HQ continues to refine the ticket system (Ask AMA) where someone can ask a question and get an answer within 48 hours by a staff person; and creating the knowledge base mentioned earlier that will supplement the Ask AMA system on-line.

It was approved[/b]by acclamation to shut down the AMA Forum.
