I find it odd that everyone is speaking what they think but the admins. I thought this post was supposed to be dialogue but seems they people running the site dont care 
.
Are the admins too busy infighting themselves to care what is happening to the OOF ?
As looknee says above about when he was darth looknee he was banned for no real reason and then kicked off as an admin which seems to have left a bitter taste in everyones mouth. Why wasnt we told the real reason, as he wouldnt have been banned for typing terribly sorry old boy, I am a little tired. If we are expected to say wot we think is wrong with the OOF then the admins should have the decency to at least join in . Will we get a reply from the boy or his gang? Doubt it
I think you should go back through the thread Mike, they've commented earlier
This was more to get our opinions anyway AFAICT
And if you read his posts, he asked not to be a moderator any more
It's a huge shame that DLK has decided the actions he has and I will be very sad not to see him at the meets. He's one of the people I've met through OOF over the last 4 years or so that I class as a friend (instead of an acquaintance) but I respect his decision
I
know that he and I will still meet up whenever our paths cross and it can be arranged and I'm sure I'll hear his voice over the phone reasonably frequently
Unfortunately the whole sorry incident is going to be hanging over this forum for a while. This is a big shame because (however you feel about the situation) there was no real "good" outcome when there was such ill feeling
I know Jimbob made a decision based on what he perceived to be the right course of action. Perhaps it was, perhaps it wasn't. But it has highlighted that having your partner as a member when you are moderating is an awkward and uncomfortable position to find yourself in
That situation has now been resolved with the unfortunate loss of a member
Ljay and I may not have always seen eye to eye but it's still sad to lose a member
Personally I didn't see anything wrong with the comment that sparked it all
After all, Ljay has posted similar many times in the past
But it sparked a dreadful sequence of events that has ended as it has. Perhaps the whole thing could have been handled differently but this is the real world and we need to move forwards... The past cannot be changed
At the risk of repeating myself, I do find that the membership base has changed dramatically and that there are more and more posts that I open and then ignore or just ignore it in full
That's just like real life though... There are always people/conversations that don't interest you
I hope that it's just the seasonal lull, but I have noticed it's been getting quieter and more "aggressive" lately
We should all have a big kiss and cuddle and move on
