    People set up websites and maintain forums because they choose to do. If the guys make lots of cash even better.

    Think of it as a charity, a little like care in the community. God knows what the senior posters would be up to if they weren't posting here!!

    Can't really argue with that. I don't think there was much of a change more a knee jerk reaction that went a little wrong but not for want of the right people trying to do the right thing. Kinda of relate it to most big upsets, small core start something, some tries to stop it, angers the mob and anarchy rules for a short time I guess.

    To be fair things have gotten a little skewed here. Bullied off in the true sense isn't the issue, sick of trolls and crap and not enjoying the forum is more what it was about.
    OK, that's different. I tire of the trolls as much as the next poster, and when they inevitably get banned (And they do, though the actual troll - troll seems to have mastered the art of walking the fine line) things usualy lighten up for a while. And inevitably a new one comes along.

    Of course not. The rivers are made of wine and the streets are paved with gold, theres no crime and managers and workers hold hands and dance around the office all day singing. Why do we need unions?

    So you got one person, hardly the majority as you claimed, and that was on LR where you want all the banter to go as well.

    Well ask him for us and report back, cause unless the comments have been deleted I've got NFI what you're talking about judging from the posts and threads prior to him leaving.
