i'm sorry to see people leave this forum, all people. Well not all.
But save the drama for the drama forum,
If you want real control over a forum, make people one that you have to be invited to, and don't invite the unwanted. Problem solved.

I agree.
Drama queens are such a bore. If I decided that I just couldn't take here any more, I'd just not log on. Big deal.
Yawn.

And the above 2 posts say it all, if I do not like it well I will quit logging in , stop in to lurk and do not post , actually if there were less posts with nothing to contribute there would be more bandwidth for casting, any way why do not we all start more mentoring and helping and less bickering . Please let us all work towards more information about the hobby we like and less dissension among us . I lurked here long before joining as I am not a joiner and I do not post all the time , but I want the information to passed back and forth , to each their own and your mileage may vary , but let us abide by the terms of service and the site owners policies , and in that same vein , let us try to not post to cause drama or rain on someones profession or thoughts , thank you for being a site where I could find lube recipes , flux ideas , alloys , sizing , annealing and even some humor , swapping and selling , the reason I stopped lurking and joined .I too miss Jim from floyd , always enjoyed his posts , and some others , o.k. my 2 cents have a nice night .
So you start a thread that will be nothing but more of the same ?
Fine!!! That's it, I've had enough and I am leaving.
See you tomorrow
It's tomorrow. Yea!!!!!!! I'm back. Man, that was a long time to be without the forum. It is fortunate that I do not view the owners right to control what is posted here as an infringement of my rights. Otherwise what would I do? The withdrawal symptoms would be terrible

Makes like a detective novel to try and find out what all the cryptic rants are about.

Montana Charlie and Foesgth; Men with a sense of humor !!! I like it
Being a newer member myself (relatively speaking), I do not "know" our member who has expressed such dissatisfaction as to announce his leaving. So I won't miss him, as I never knew him.
But I do know what he will be missing if he leaves, he will be missing out on the camaraderie with a great bunch of people; He will be missing the opportunity to teach, the opportunity to learn. He will be missing out on the satisfaction of helping others on their journey. He will take away my opportunity to know him, and that of all the others still to join.
Why? Because of misplaced anger with a Mod who was only doing the job he is honor bound to do.
Seems sad to me.
I urge him to reconsider, as I feel he will later regret this decision. But if he will not, then I wish him the best of luck down whatever roads life holds for him.
Montana Charlie, how are you going to celebrate your 15,000th post ?
hey, watch where ya point that thing!
Uhh ... gee!
I was unaware that I was about to reach that milestone.
I suppose I'll brag about it a little while I'm out among the cows.
They always enjoy unusual news when chewing their morning cuds.
On the other hand, maybe I'll use it to log on and say that I'm leaving forever ... er sumpthin'.

Some of the the "Drama Queens" were long term members that contributed a lot to this board. I believe that they felt for the good of the board they would explain why they left and not just fade into the night. Before you attack them too much think about what you will do when your ox is being gored.
Drama is like a train wreak, no one wants it to happen. But when it does, everybody stops by to have a look. All the action and commotion is interesting and , for lack of a better word - entertaining. Jay
Threads like this in my opinion is the reason the old guys are leaving. We used to be a forum who cared for others and acted as such. With all the new people t seems everyone is on guard any more. I believe a forum has to evolve to survive but evolution does not mean change.
