1. Too many lawsuits from people getting flamed or threatened, etc.
Serious. They blamed it all on Yahoo.

5. Do you mean the news boards?
They got rid of those about a year and a half ago.

I think there was too much anti-Bush sentiment, and they werent happy about it.

If you mean the Yahoo Groups boards I heard they closed those down almost a year ago, supposedly to bring them back with a redesign that they never completed.

And Yahoo wonders why Google has taken their place........

6. a large part of that is that they censored way too much
that at least is the reason most of the adult groups are fleeing to google or ning.
