Unfortunately I now view Richard Dawkins, Josh Timonen and Andrew Chalkly in the same group, complete morons when it comes to management.
Yep. And for Richard, though, I had a higher standard, thinking he valued and appreciated the members of that community that had formed under his name and banner. I never had any such illusions about Josh, having seen in the past how he was willing to throw someone else under the bus to spare taking responsibility himself, but the scales have most definitely fallen in regard to Richard.

No guess about the timeframe, but I agree with the rest of it, Psychoserenity. They can do what they want with the site, I'm done with it.

Sorry, what're we on about?

I want to see it happen, because it feels like the end of a story yet to be completed.

You people aren't paying attention, I see. :nono:

The new forum IS open. However, there have been a few rule changes. Now, to see the forum you need to have 1,000 posts. And to post there, you need 2,000 posts. So, simply accumulate 1,000 posts and you'll be able to follow the stimulating debates and enjoy the bon homme of fellow atheists.

You can piss off the staff at RatzSkep easily by referring to them collectively as "Josh". :hehe:

The post counts mentions are on the NEW forum, not the old one. You have to have 1,000 posts on a forum you can't see in order to see the forum, and 2,000 posts on a forum you can't post on in order to post on the forum.

Sheesh, it's spelled out clearly in the new FUA, as posted in the new forum. :read:

Gee Gawd, I think what you're saying is too subtle, I don't understand it at all.
