Here is the inside scoop. Fox put a bunch of money in the site and expect to see growth. New business plans calls for major upgrades to all games. You are already seeing some of the upgrades. Hoops just got a big upgrade, this game just got a pretty big upgrade with more on the way, and the forums just got a face lift. To increase enrollment, Fox has been putting up advertising and also wants the game more new user friendly. Part of that is getting rid of what they have identified as a problem element within certain games. The new favs and blocks charting system is a tool for the admins to use as justification for muzzling and/or removing this element. Like I said, just wait and people like MikeT23 will soon be gone from the forums for sure and possibly from the site altogether.
