Hey Glocks,
Thanks for the suggestions. I'd be happy to make any positive changes possible, but as you're well aware, my ability to make most of the changes needed are out of my control. I'd appreciate hearing from you, privately if required to better explain your recommendations. I would agree to clean up threads, provided there isn't the risk of a First Amendment violation. If there aren't any violations of our TOS or ROC, the posts shouldn't be removed. Back in the "Day" when we actually had a Webmaster, he let me know in no uncertain terms that he wouldn't tolerate removing posts ( I had done so) unless there were blatant violations of our rules and regs. That's one reason we had/have many of the members we do. They appreciate a forum that allows people to speak their mind without the nit-picking rules of so many other forums. That's why we were on top of the mountain for a year or two! This place was the GO TO forum for fast, accurate responses to questions. It's continues to be a favorite of many people, but the old timers are leaving and the new comers don't know our history. I do my best to provide the answers to both groups, while trying to keep it personalized, fun to visit and share experiences that make our sport enjoyable. It's damn hard to do alone. I'd love to get our Webmaster back in the loop but for all I know he's on a respirator somewhere and his attorney is paying his domain fee's!! If AF is reading these posts, I'd like to tell you you've been as useful as the proverbial tits on a boar. I have no idea what you're gaining from this type of behavior, so as cruel as it sounds, I hope you actually are on a respirator. That would be reason enough to explain your abandonment of this website, while allowing it to crawl along untended! You owe every member an explanation and apology for the blatant neglect you have exhibited. Sorry to spank you in public, but you need to right all of your wrongs if you ever plan to make the forum whole again. Even then, I doubt we'll ever regain the interest of all the great staff and members we have lost., because of your lack of proper attention to necessary detail. I hope you've enjoyed wasting so many people's efforts to make you look good. Just so you know, you didn't make anyone look good here, we all did it by ourself and you have ended up looking like the fool. Before you can me from the forum, I'd just like to tell you to PISS off. We've tried entirely too many times to work with you, only to get bent over the bar and either made to look like the fool or unable to perform what we promised to do. I can't imagine living your life, one full of deception! Have fun with it, you've probably milked all you want out of us.
