Hmmm... I liked the idea of serious compacts. My preferred type of camera and a place where I knew I could discuss them. Amin, what about a Serious Compacts forum within this site for us serious compact types. And why not just start a new forum instead of changing Serious Compacts? Presumably you still own the domain for Serious Compacts? I'm not necessarily a creature of habit, but I'll still come here for serious and not so serious discussion re: compact, capable cameras. I'm very, um, focused on that topic. And I never felt inhibited about discussing other cameras.
