Surely whether it's a change for the worse is a matter of opinion. I would find a forum using some of the readily available forum software that allows posting of images, attaching documents, keeps all related posts together, can be subdivided into Sauropod, Theropod, Pterosaur etc forums and does not muck up URL's would be a distinct improvement.

I think what you're seeing here is hostility to change _for the worse_. Despite the Obama campaign, not _all_ change is an improvement :-)
