Re: My final thoughts So, respecting your first wish of not wanting to rehash the past, I am not going to link to threads elsewhere, because firstly, my post would be moderated for linking to the only place that I could show the older stuff (yes, we know mentioning our site by name is offensive to some here), and secondly, because I do actually believe that ultimately, things need to be allowed to rest, but that doesn't mean I think things should be ignored, hence my bothering to post. I'm of the opinion that you know where to look, both here and elsewhere if you were actually concerned about the truth of the whole situation, but I know that you have your own beliefs about the situation and therefore we are in a situation that the best outcome would be an agreement to disagree and leave everything out in the open for others to see and then make up their own minds.
Recent stuff, well, you could ask B52GUNR why he felt the need to be inflammatory in the enquiry thread that ended up locked recently, that thread is a milder example of the symptoms of the whole problem. It was enough to get the attention of the people you don't like posting here now though, so GUNR gets a thumbs up for attracting yet more attention to the problem(s). I could also suggest you ask your moderators why they have made some of the decisions they did and ask them what they said to others in IM's too, but I know that questioning your mods is an easy way to a warning or suspension, so you may be better off not doing that.
As for the email being sent out, yes, I do remember the team founder list being used. Just one question though, how do you know that all former members have actually even seen that mail? It is more than likely that there are people who have never seen or read that mail due to expired email accounts etc, and if they are returning to DC after a long absence, they are invariably going to be curious about what happened.
Lets face it, there have been things said and done by both sides that have been upsetting to the other. I would just like to see enquiries handled in a mature meaningful manner rather than it becoming an issue over and over due to a few of your posters who know they can be venomous and get away with it because as long as it's not again bbr/dslr or it's members, it's acceptable. |
