I was around for the discussions on the separation of the two vets forums and whilst I can't remember exact details this thread explains it a little bit -
http://www.recoveryourlife.com/forum...ead.php?t=1851
I'm pretty sure that this was a trial and a vote was done after a few months but I can't find this thread though I've only had a cursory glance!
I'm really a vets lurker but would hate to see vets go and if people think it
should be merged then fine but splitting it up and making it a subforum of other boards will just kill it in my view!
This thread has had in my mind a few of the main vets but not many and I think a discussion like this is fine but any real decision thread should take place in vets as they are the members who will make the decision
