I am now locking it down due to reasons stated above. While it appears there is significant interest in survivors, it also appears that this discussion has been ground down to dust.
It would be my suggestion that further discussion, if it were to take place, wouild have two elements in place to try to avoid this in the future:
1. Survivor Thread Topics should be clearly stated and somewhat narrowly focued. Good: Did any romanovs believe Anna Anderson and if so, why? Bad: one thing I find odd.
2. Discussion Rules - we should come up with "rules of engagement" that are as specific as possible so that topics can get discuseed without members feeling as though they are being disrespected.
As your Moderator, I will try to shut down non productive threads faster. And, if anyone has constructive suggestions for me, please let me know.
