Well, congrats and enjoy it. We arent posting a link.
To be fair, I don't think Maven wants them posting links to other sites...especially when the link leads to a more user friendly message board!!!
Its also just apples and oranges when you compare this sort of community centered message forum with pure content driven business enterprises like SI and Maven.
The bottom line of businesses is profit and providing services to the community may be part of it, I think it is with Maven, but that has to fit within the model and scope of the business bottom line.
Driving their traffic to other sites is a very different thing than it is for a pure community board.
Great community forums like this can also generate profit but profit is not the first focus.
