As I stated in the email, web boards tend to get bogged down with extraneous topics. Sure you don't have to click them, but you still have to dig through them.
There is already a GP web board (
www.clubgp.com), so this is a bit repetitive.
BTW, what problems did you have with Yahoo? I never got any ads from them (besides the tagline at the bottom of the mail, but who really notices that?)
