    The Explanation

    Well, this one is kinda tricky. People have apologised but half the people don't know what went on or why... and I don't believe we will satisfactorily get to the motivations of some members.

    I guess I could liken it to this famous parable

    or here is the shorter poetic version

    There is now a better understanding all round. The management actions would nary have caused a ripple at any other forum, however Windrivers is peculiar... you all care and I want to make sure you know that I know, that they know, that we know... well you get the picture.

    Pgg... you wanted to start the group hug?
    Never, ever approach a computer saying or even thinking "I will just do this quickly."

    So that's it??? Just like that, back to being a normal dysfunctional community again???

    I guess we pushed too hard, I was getting to enjoy all of the rants and ramblings over the past two days...next time, maybe we shouldn’t try so hard to get our point across, maybe we can make the fun last a full week…

    Oh well, on to the group hugs I guess. I want to get next the Trip and I need to be able to touch Cleetus. Iceman, I'll go one on one with you boy...

    I lied, the last wasn't my last post, this is.

    I don't see it as being "all good" I will not visit the #windrivers channel on IRC. It is too much of a pain to assist folk in two rooms, and I'm not changing the room I visit just because someone got their panties in a bunch over at jupiter.

    WinDrivers is still burning, and I ain't peeing on it.

    Wouldn't you? I mean really, he knew there would be some flack, but the fallout was immense. I know my feelings would be hurt, hopefully he's got a good look at things, and understands, he's got some very tight shoes to fill...

    so trip gets to mod case mods and hot deals.

    Ok I can live with that. that is essentially modding nothing since those areas never got much traffic when this site WAS something. now that it's not I doubt there is going to be hardly any posts in there at all.

    I think RRR is pretty well contained all things considered. now we just have to keep him from getting airborne
