As smart as Min is, he is going to leave because he realized they wouldn't listen.

RE: As smart as Min is, he is going to leave because he realized they wouldn't listen.
Look I'm sorry, but the staff have a long history of listening to our members and removing new rules if they generate complaints.

If Minimalist wanted to object to the new rule he could have done it publicly, stated his case, etc. He didn't do that. He just left.

If you want to object to rules you can, openly, but what I won't stand for is pure bullshit that the staff don't listen.

Malestrom Logic ™ ain't the greatest, lol.

He was wronged by being told to actually follow the rules, see?

Makes perfect sense.

Oh, and obviously we cannot talk about warnings etc received by members but I don't think that was what OP was referring to. So in case it isn't clear:

We did not ever tell Minimalist that he would have to leave the forums or even warn him about that kind of thing.

I feel bad he's gone. Who's gonna give us the "Fudging X" threads?

Carry on thinking we're some kind of clandestine Illuminati though, it's quite amusing.

But really, is there no better usage of your time, Kit?

Oh, it's time for another thread about this?

The staff made their decision. So be it.

I agree and it was a surprise when I noticed he wasn't posting here anymore, especially as I had just sent him a long PM trying to explain how he could easily change his subjects to abide by the new rule.

However we don't just change the rule because one person leaves. We've received mixed feedback on the rule, and in fact I'd say most people seem to approve of it.

I've known Min for something like ten years now, over several forae. He's probably my oldest friend from those days. It's because of him that I'm even here, after the dramas at previous places. Do you think I for one take any satisfaction that he chose to leave? I'm actually trying to make overtures to persuade him to come back; if he wants to, obviously.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
