Pedlya claims not to be the 'former member'.
I think the post however is total !@#$%. If someone doesn't have the balls to come and tell us personally what they think, how can the post be taken as valid? Needless to say Limey and Fissure did have their impact on the forum (Limey had a positive one during his modship) and Fissure always proved a point to me. But to say that 'letting them go is the road to tyranny and destruction'. One cannot stop a member from leaving the forum, one cannot also stop a member from breaking the rules and getting banned. Everyone takes their own paths in life, and they will impact everyone else around them, but its far fetched to say that this is our reason for decline, our reason for decline is not the loss of three members who may or may not have all had an impact on this forum, our reason for decline is discussions like this, we worry so much about everything, rather than focusing on the main subject, this is our reason for decline. We will continue to worry about the main subject, until I get my !@#$% together and push the ball down the hill and let it roll on its own. There are a few more things that need done for improvement, and I'm working on making it happen (through my !@#$% for internet service). So give myself and kirby time.
