Completely off topic, but I went onto the BBC Leeds page the other day for the first time in ages, and noticed that the messageboard link had gone.Anyone know what happened there? Did they just get fed up of the endless political discussions??

The message boards are still there and active but it looks like the link has moved or gone. I know there was some debate as to whether the boards were being targeted and flooded by one particular political party.

Oh yeah, so they are, if you search via Google. How odd.Still, having had a quick flick through them, I don't seem to have missed much......
