Nothing has been done to address any of the real problems on the forum, nor can anything be done in the current environment of discord, deliberate sabotage, and deceptive manipulation, so I'm returning to duty as forum administrator and implementing the following changes immediately.
Membership is temporarily frozen. No new members until the forum is repaired.
All accounts registered with anything but regular IP addresses are suspended.
All confirmed or suspected sockpuppet accounts are suspended.
All accounts of members acting in a manner contrary to the stated goals of the forum may be suspended at my option.
All accounts of members acting in a manner blatantly disrespectful of others may be suspended at my option.
After observing the shameful behavior of many new members here, it is clear that a completely planar power system is too easily undermined by destructive personalities. We see the same thing in the outside world where a few sociopaths rule the roost, much to the detriment of the vast majority.
As seen in the organization of autonomous cells into simple multi-cellular life forms, a minimum level of hierarchy is required to allow a functioning organism. I'm not sure how nature managed that critical step when single cells united to form the first "collectives", but that is still the goal of this forum, and all efforts from me have been directed towards that goal, and all efforts from members will be directed towards that goal as well in the future. Individuals that are not conducive to that process will be excluded.

Re: Returned to duty
Chico....stop it.
Follow through on the poll, delete the known sock puppets and we can keep working towards "not" having the kind of forum you are now speaking about.
Come on...
Good to see you back though!

The vague and biased poll from Canzirka to remove private information is null and void.
All subsequent polls are also null and void until the forum is repaired.

Re: Returned to duty
This is not for you to decide.
The vote was taken. Execute the mandate
You are self destructing.
You are behaving like a dictator
Please be clear
Is this a member's forum or Chico's forum.

Re: Returned to duty
Shameful behaviour of "new member's ". ?
Where have you been in the last few months and the behaviour of the old member's. ?
That was acceptable?

Re: Returned to duty
You wouldn't give up this easily Chico...unless your intention is for it not to work.
Seriously.. Lee

Re: Returned to duty
Good folks, you are returning the worst possible interpretations (WPI) on Chico's actions.
He's trying to fix this thing ... let's give him some space to do so.
I thank you all kindly.

Welcome back...
Can you stop sock puppetry completely?

Re: Returned to duty
Zook, aren't we supposed to try and fix this thing together?
He keeps dictating. You're o.k. with that, some aren't.
At the end of the day he has the control...and with that he creates the space himself.
Back to bed... Lee
