Are you suggesting that the post I made was not true?
As administrators (and owners) of this fourm, we work very hard to make it successful and enjoyable. We receive emails every single day from people complaining about one thing or another, one person or another, what they have said, how they have said it. We get dozens of requests from people to block other people. We have members who never post, but read every day. We have members who post every day about every subject. Every day we receive emails from people wanting us to ban certain regular posters.
There will always be people who disagree with the actions of the administrators (owners). There are a couple of members here who have a build-in dislike for the administrators. (me particularly). There are even members who think that we, as administrators, should not try to stimulate conversation. (I have been in this business my whole adult life, and it has always been like this.)
We cannot put ourselves in a postion of discussing every decision we make with the membership. When we feel that something has undermined the good of the forum, we sometimes have to an take action. Not everybody will like those decisions, but when has that ever been any different. Occasionally, people post things that serve so good purpose and the only way to maintain stablility is to delete the whole thread. I deleted the thread, and that's that.
We have a significant financial investment in this forum (over $10,000). It is our intention to protect our investment and someday, have a return on our money.
