Rawr! Pros vs. Cons?

"Because we are dedicated to providing our customers with the most current and user friendly technology available today we made the difficult decision to close the MSN Groups service and invest in a new service, Windows Live Groups, a place for small groups to collaborate. In the long term we believe that closing MSN Groups will allow us to refocus on making Windows Live Groups an innovative, best of breed service that helps you stay in touch with the people you care about"

I think Msn Groups has closed down permanently to join with Windows Live instead. There's still information up if you look into groups.msn.com. It doesn't really say anything about a 'new' groups being developed anymore. Kinda lame... but I like both groups and this place, so it matters not to me.

I was on Groups for years. Six and a half years, actually. Since I was
ten. Soo...I loved Groups. I loved the easy set up for tables, I loved the post formats, I loved the pages.
Oh, if Groups came back I'd run that way in a heartbeat.

But..

I do like this place too. The cbox is an addiction, I love the fact that we can PM eachother without
the hassle of emails and messengers. The format is a little wonky sometimes, and it can be a bit
awkward, but I do like this place. Somehow its goofy-ness fits FnI's persona and all it's members.

SECRETLY...not so secret now, but SECRETLY I've been working on an FnI Proboards with spiffy
graphics, layouts, and storylines. I mean, EVERYTHING condensed on one site. But the more I
work on it the more I actually dislike it. For all my imagination, sweat, and tears, I am beginning to
loathe the place because I just can't get the quirkyness to work. We FnI'ers are crazy, psycho, and
goofy. We've grown into this place more in a few months than we have in years on Groups. No page
hassles, no dead serious posting except on occassion, it's awesome. Somehow, the site I'm working
on isn't as friendly and inviting. It's just...not. Not like this place.

I would vote stay here.

To be honest. I like groups better. haha. That's my say. I do like this place, with the chat box and all...and it's easier... I dunno... Now you got me thinkin'

But I like... groups. It's home...

Alright, I'm bored. And in being so, I've decided to ask the ultimate question. If Groups was back, would we migrate once more? I've just wondered because personally I like this place : D Its far more personal than groups, hence the awesomeness of colors and background and stuff. Plus, most of you have figured out tables. O.O Which I'm still clueless, but I was never good with making them in Groups either xD. Just want to know opinions : D I for one like this place better. :O Blasphemy Warrior! xD
