Well.. To be honest. A company named Vertical Scope. Who for the most part dont care about any of their users, as long as they are providing traffic to their SPAM, err, I mean ads!
Everyone that made this site what it is/was is long gone. Only a shadow of its members remain.
I would like to reference you to the new site, but some Admin will come in and edit my post, removing any links that could take you to the new home of this sites old members. And once thats done, they might ban me. So I cant..
So I invite you, and every other member here to use a google search engine, and find the new home to the people that were here, that no longer are, and their new site.
To any Admin that happens to come along, I invite you, to a open forum discussion, inbetween you, and I, showing that what you say is going to happen, is. To prove to me, and to any other member that happens along, that this site is anything more than just a revenue stream for Vertical Scope.
From what I have seen, you talk a big game (Stew), but from what I have seen, its just that, a game. I will admit that you took away that annoying Jaq/Ota.. However, much more work remains. And from what I can tell, you locking the other thread where both legitamit and il-legitamit comments were made, means that your time with this forum is done, and much of the problems that were, are going to be back because no one is here to, well, give a damn..
What the members of this site are owed will never come because you cant do it. What they are owed is a ad free site for 1 year, to overcome the ads that we were never ment to see. What the users of this site are owed is a flat unbanning of all members. What the members of this site are owed is a flat removal of all post moderation.
I own 4 forums. I charge none of my members any fee, and treat everyone as equals. I have 1 ad per forum, to pay for the bandwidth, and that is all.
I just cant fathom why you, VS/Stew think that because you are now showering this forum with all this attention (which seems to have disappeared), that the previous damage is just going to magicly disappear. I also cant fathom why, when all of the members try to tell you whats wrong, from what I can tell, you provide them lip service, a finger, and maybe bother with a reach around, when all we really wanted was some vasaline.
Please get with the program. We begged and pleaded, hell, even the site admins (that are now Banned) begged and pleaded for help, for a glint of something better, for the dust to be removed from the "Super Admins" keyboard. But alas, only after the keys were pounded out by the loud marching of 500+ members leaving was a thought even placed to what may be happening. But even that was missed by almost a week.
Show us, your remaining members that your word means anything more than just a ad/revenue stream. Dont wait a week for some meeting to happen for permission, get it done. Prove to me, and anyone else with a hinkering of a thought of staying here that its a good idea.
