I am interested, but they are a little intimidating. I have been a part of CB for a while now (well before the PP/KG/Allen era), but always kind of felt that there were core members and then everyone else. While I don't have any plans of being a prominent member of CB, I do have quite a bit of experience in fantasy sports - starting with Yahoo! back in 1999.
As far as the 'latest forum topics' section goes, it is a little annoying, but when there isn't anything better going on, it doesn't really matter.
