I remember the fear when we implemented the new board and I do have a vague memory of a couple of people actually leaving because of it. I liked the old way of posting until we made the switch. I knew instantly that this was much, much better. Some may not remember why we did the switch, but it had nothing to do with technology and being with it - it had to do with a person who was stalking someone and posting under a whole slew of names (one didn't need to register then to post), posting terrible things, and having the new board gave me complete control and the ability to ban someone. Since then, it's only happened twice, where someone came on purposely trying to disrupt things - same person, two names, someone who followed me to almost every site on which I was posting. I banned them, which meant they could not reregister from the same computer, so they did go to some trouble the second time.
