I basically disagree with all your premises.

>The garbage level is now almost zero, only the quality stuff is left.

Well, one's garbage is another person's treasure. If there was lot of traffic then I will say that for all that people the discussions were worth it, otherwise why would they participate? If you did not like it you had the choice of ignoring it, no big deal. In my opinion disqualifying other people's messages because you did not like it is very intolerant. Furthermore a technical question with technical answers are no guarantee of quality

> I think it's a huge improvement

I guess is an improvement for management, now they have no issues to resolve, but other than that a forum with not posts is not an improvement, is just an static website

> I expect quite a few people who left this forum because of all the garbage, to come back

First I would bet that more people left because they stopped using FoxPro than people that left for the garbage, but neither you nor I can be sure why people left, so it is an unsubstantiated claim. Second, chances are that people that somehow (I would say by divine intervention but then intolerant people asked for the ban of religious content too so I'll refrain) learn that the chatter forum in the UT has been eliminated and come back running and all excited to the forum only to find it deserted will probably not last, in my opinion.

Now, I will remind you that if you reply to me you are going to contribute to what you call garbage so I guess I should not expect any answer from you :)
