Hi kids!

More flotsam from the RDF meltdown blowing in...

Just after spending a year cultivating the persona of a bitter, Angry-Old-Man-on-the-Internet™ I'm back to square one! Sheesh!

Good to see some old RDF faces and looking forward to meeting some new folk!

I suggest doing it now, before they turn the Avatars off.

I'm very upset that they have completely wiped me off the forum. All of my posts are gone. :nono:

About me: If I had my way I'd buy a few acres of land and an old tractor. I'd drive the old tractor around the land and passers-by would stop to ask me what kind of crop I was farming. "Crop?" I'd say, "Crops are work, I'm planting ideas."

I would, but it would seem they did unregister (or banned) me
Hah, I had you all beat. I was already on vacation for violating the sacred FUA. It was Gallstones, the mod who was forced to send me on vacation (I was not what you might call innocent :biggrin: ), who let me know what was going on.

I probably have enough in the boilerplate to get something useful, but I'm not really sure I have the heart for it now. This has taken the wind out of my sails a bit. I'll mull it over for a few days.

Another person betrayed and shat upon, after huge amounts of work. Does Dawkins actually know what is going on though? :(

As I said on another post, one could see Josh as a Wormtongue to RD's aging Theoden...

Or another analogy is Josh as Cardinal Richlieu...

Or RD (pissed of at a forum that has grown beyond his control) saying "who will rid me of this turbulent forum" :hehe:

I iz in a literary analogy mood... :shifty:
Wormtongue! Right-on. I thought he was a snivelling arsehole the last time things blew up, but at least the provocation was clear & the Admin hand was definitely forced. This is a whole other thing & maybe Richard will get wind of how appallingly people think he has acted in this instance. He needs to understand that you never send a boy to do a mans job. The least he owed the forum community was a direct communique (like last time) and the opportunity to finish things with some grace. Certainly people would have been angry, but with a rational explanation from his desk about this move, I think people could have made appropriate departures. To treat the mods the way they have is nothing short of despicable.

Jim, I assume you'll be there on the Sunday of the Convention. Will you join me in a silent protest when Richard takes the stage, greeted by the backs of his disenfranchised community?
