RE: The Newly Departed thread: announcements (departures)
ok I remember back in the day I didn't like shell at all. Absolutely hated Tongue. totally not true, although I didn't like her at first she grew on me. Now Void and Min... that pair..
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post

Regardless, I'm out, at least for now. Anyone who wishes to maintain contact can reach me at [email protected]. No, I'm not doxing myself. It's a new account for no other purpose than this seeing as I am not a member of any of the popular social media sites.

Ciao all...

Another one of my favourites, The Galactic Bus Driver, right from my first few days here.
It sounds like you really mean it, but I'm hoping you'll change your mind and come back later.
Take it easy, man.

I'm sure Violet is ruling some place in another dimension.
She was good.
What about Thundercunt and Psychoslice? (Kidding)  :-)

We've had a rough time recently but we're going to settle down.

Take a break if you feel the need but please come back to us.

Be well, all.

Can anyone give an instance of moderators being high handed? I’m not saying we aren’t I’m just saying I’d like to see times that we are so we can improve.

I don't think it's necessarily that people have been heavy handed, but more that there is possibly a perception of it.

In the past couple of days many things have been said by multiple people and we've seen the level of conflict that boils under the surface.

We've already seen three popular members, three of my favourites, leave over the past few days.

What we need to do, in my opinion, is to allow time for the dust to settle, for us to mend fences, and to get the boards running as they were.
