Discussion Forum by far. I love Reddit, but it's pretty much killed most people's desire for old school internet forums where people could have nuanced and thorough conversations with people you come to recognize and respect. On Reddit, the conversations just aren't as nuanced, and there's not really a sense of "community".

TPR and CF used to be the kings of theme park forums, but both of those websites have kind of fallen off in their own ways. Meanwhile, TPI has remained very consistent with a lot of the same people who were here 10 years ago still around.

While I probably only read about 20% of the main page articles/discussions (sorry Robert, I'm just not that invested in every new Disney stage show the way I used to be), I've been checking up on the TPI discussion forum page daily for a decade at this point. There are certain posters whose commentary I consistently look out for, and I love that there's always something people are talking about.

That being said, I do miss stuff like Theme Park Apprentice on here. Now that I'm older and a much better thinker and writer, I'd love to do that again but I'm not sure if we still have the numbers/dedication it'd require.

Well Brian, Robert writes excellent front page articles, but my favorite has always been the Discussion Forum simply because the patrons of this site can pick their own topics to discuss/debate.

Sometimes I wish we could have a subset of the Discussion Forum where we can get a bit edgy; kind of like where you go off the rails with your anti-MAGA rants and the rest of us can chuckle at/with you. Or we can have a totally fictitious section where could post things like theories on where TH Creative has been recently or is Walt Disney's brain kept in cryogenic storage.

Unfortunately, moderating the board to keep it from becoming a stinking pile of garbage would be time consuming, and judging by Robert's travel schedule recently, he's way too busy. But you never know, maybe he'd let you be the forum moderator since you both fall on the same side of the political spectrum!
