it was replaced by the moderated Independent Research forum, about four years ago.

Why was it? Is it because that people can easily take others ideas?
 
It was full of crackpots.

Hmm thanks, what about the new forum Independent Research?

What I saw was, in essence, the same thing as a theory development forum-- people posting their theories while others arguing to see if it holds up or not.

It's a much more closely moderated version that requires more effort on the part of the member.
