Like akule said, it will be removed soon. I see no problem with it atm. And it is true, i myself went to BF for the hacks through google. I found a topic i liked and decided to sign up to add to the discussion.
All i want by the pop up is to get a basis for what our community will be founded on. And WhiteAngel is right, this forum was started on people coming from BF, people in the graphics section who were looking for an alternative.
