I've fought long and hard to keep this place going in the right direction. Up until recently, I feel I have done that. Sadly, despite my best efforts, I have ultimately failed. It's to do with principles I can't compromise on. Unfortunately this means I can no longer stand by the forum, and being here only makes me sad. Apparently there is something coming about this issue so I will say more about it then.
That's not at all a reflection on the wonderful membership here. I think of many of you as friends, and I've been honoured to have been part of the community. You're welcome to keep in contact with me by email or Skype, both [email protected].
If things ever change, I might return. But sadly it's not looking like that's ever going to happen. Thank you all, and goodbye
Oh camon Rob, if there are divergences, fight with reason, do not give up
If you are not carrying weight with the rest of the rest of staff, then gain more metaphorical weight.
Honestly, this makes me sad because:
1: you are leaving
2: as someone that worked hard to keep this forum and made an effort to improve it, you quitting in face of adversity and the way you worded this hurts me.
Oh well, hope you find your place somewhere. Thanks for all, despite that, and I have to be honest, I feel a bit disapointed. Farewell.
