Hello all, please do not misrepresent AnswerMug. AnswerMug is a site that was created by an AB member called Weylon, who eventually passed it on to another AB member called Just Asking. The site is entirely run by ABers. All of the people on their mod team are former ABers. No one is annoyed for ABers coming there, because that is their main target group. It was designed for us as an alternative to AB. Others are welcome also, of course… *
Anyway, yes, Answerbag closed down permanently.
And AnswerMug is good enough for AB-Joel, Answerbag’s founder… that says a lot.
**Added:
The Debate Room was made so that there was a place for people to ask serious questions. Not questions like “Do you like cookies?” or fill in the blank ones.
All topics are welcome and they do not recklessly ban people or delete things in the way that AB did. There are different places designed for specific things, but if you look around, you can likely find appropriate places to post what you’d like to talk about.
As for the interface, it might take some getting used to.. but it is easy on the eye and gives a very welcoming feel when you give the community a chance.
Just some thoughts.
