To all of you who have bad mouthed Bill all the time, Do you get a thrill or a high out of driving people away? People who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones! You need to get a life and start repenting for all the meaness that oozes out of your fingers onto this board! All I can say to you is... SHAME ON YOU!!!

I honestly don't know what is the reason for this decision on Serpent's part, but perhaps the people you are shaming had reasons of which you are unaware. It is easy to cast stones at people who are willing to take risks and speak unpleasant opinions.ravensdream wrote:All I can say to you is... SHAME ON YOU!!!

I just read Serp's last ten posts or so.
Nothing in them gives a clue as to why he is leaving. So whatever it was, it was personal. So let's stop blaming the board. Some people didn't like Serpent. They had a right to say so. Serp didn't seem to take it personally anyways. We sure do like starting fires on this board.

Completely taking away the issue of repeated violations of commercial posting rules, many of the reasons may have to do with various board members (myself included) being repeatedly harrased by serpent in chat and in PMs. Many of us have contacted admin over the issue, and tried our best to ignore him and his messages (although that gets difficult).
What most people who only visit the board don't see is the way serpent treated so many members in chat, which was inexcusable. It completely drove at least 3 people from chat all together.
Serpent, not us, started that.
At any rate, serpent is gone. There's not much point in further speculation, so I'm dropping it at this point.

I don't see where's the claimed risk. On any side.Walden wrote:It is easy to cast stones at people who are willing to take risks and speak unpleasant opinions.
Also, I wonder about this dialectic : [them bad guys] cast stones, while [us the good side] are willing to take risks...
Although David did cast stones against some bully.
See, you wield an axe with two edges... for

I'll give this an oh hell yeah and sh*t!! I'm glad the guy is gone. Cran, and anybody else in the chatroom knows the guy is an ass!
All I hope is that the guy actually stays gone, and this isn't just a temporary thing.
And I'm not to sorry to see a "maker" leave, I've tried two of his whistles and........ well I'm sure you can imagine... and it's not complementry.

If we wanted those whistle makers to return, wouldn't the logical action be to drive them from their safe haven at Gaelic Crossings, ie. make that place too hot for them too. Then, with nowhere else to hide, they might just end up here again (although I hear hiding in dark holes is becoming fashionable).
Just kidding, of course. Guys, do behave yourselves when chatting.
