Mud-Club Issue

You're kidding me, right? :-s
Option three: we can happily point out that if you really object to how the forum is run, the internet is a big enough place for you to find somewhere else to post your desired brand of 'banter' :?
The issue here isn't with the Mods and Admins, it's with two posters in particular. The place is ours, not yours. :wink:
Being totally serious for moment, we've stated our case, it's up to you to accept it and stay, or to argue it and leave (you won't change us). You have been empowered with that decision. Make it.
Cheers

I've flown around the globe to make customers happy - however - what you haven't done is helped to MANUFACTURE the product. Don't you see it's not the delivery that is the issue, it is the MAKING of the CUSTOM product.
If you want to be the one that brought down mud-club and had it switched off - feel free. I'm sure the other posting members wouldn't mind.

Good stuff, will you do it for a £3.50 sticker too ? when you have laryngitis, that is dedication ...

datalas - its your call, to be fair. i've seen and used bigger forums that have closed down in exactly that manner.

Hmm... I wonder why they were closed down .. :roll:

im not objecting to how the forums run, i was objecting to datalas' attitude in the reply he made. it was out of order - sorry, but thats just a fact.
what you're saying is that its the admins and moderators that make a forum, not its members. i dont think thats a great outlook on things. at the end of the day, im not going to do either of the two options you gave me... because i've got more to worry about. however, if you want to decide for me, feel free.

always one better. you asked a question, and i answered it... i can see exactly what the issue is with this guys stickers, tshirt, whatever it was... im not disputing what has actually caused the problem. all i was saying (and im saying it again) is that datalas was out of order to have a go at keri, just because she was basically trying to suggest a way to ease the workload on the "shop".
i wouldnt mind an explaination as to how im bringing mud-club down though? i stated a fact, datalas replied to it asking where the off button is... all i did after that was say its your call. after all, its your forum ;) you just said that yourself!

no, i wouldnt do that for a £3.50 sticker. i think that much goes without saying... however, i dont think anyone was suggesting that you jump in piglet and deliver everybodies £3.50 stickers. the suggestion was that some extra help might, well... help.
as far as the other forum being closed (im thinking of one in particular, that im sure you're probably not familiar with), i believe the reason was that the admin couldnt be arsed with it any more. he'd set it up, run it, it got very big, very successful, and then he decided to move onto something else... simple really.
behind the curtains though, it was just two particular members that brought it down.... :twisted:
Wanderer:
Unfortunatley Abyssdj you appear to be constantly admin/moderator baiting and it does prove difficult sometimes to work out which one of the two you are posting.
I trust that you aren't one and the same posting from the same IP address.
Come to think of it there's a hint of Laurel and Hardy about the intrepid duo that you've become.
Give it a rest and wind your neck in.
Methinks there'd be queue of people upset should the Admin decide that enough is enough. They aren't here to be openly baited.
The above are my own personal views that I rarely give in open forum due to my status of moderator. I/We like to give everybody the benefit of the doubt but you seem able to push that envelope more than most.
Anyone got any doubts.
Click on profile in one of either Keri r Abyssdj's posts and then click on show all posts and have a look at them You'll soon see a pattern.
