It is certainly not the same place without Minty and her lesser half tb.
They were the catalyst for lots of discussion, especially Minty.
One of the founders has decided to throw his weight about and turn into a dictator.
Things may pick up ... but it seems very sanitised at the moment ... interesting characters have buggered off.
Are they still together? I sensed a break with the way tb had disappeared? But I can't read PEOPLE.
I think they may not want to be active on a forum with me. That makes me sad. I actually liked and respected them both, in spite of my nasty insults towards them.
He has turned into a dictator, but only on one thread. If you go wrong on there you know it. The guys he's left on, he could have banned them. But he let their posts slide like he has for me for about 16 years. I think I'm safe on that thread. The funny thing is I suspect he's been busy and won't see my posts until it's too late. Story of my life, story of my life.
I think LGJM is a interesting character. I think he's toxic to this place though. He needed to respect the AUP rather than laugh at it. I think he's off soon and things will be better. Less truthful, but nicer.
