I don't delete accounts from the forum that have more than 0 posts, though, because it reverts all your previous posts to "Guest" and can cause errors with previous quotes, links, etc. I'll just leave your account as is and you can choose not to post again, should that be what you decide. I can only hope that, in time, you'll choose to return. You've been a great member of the community and will be sorely missed | This is interesting, though I do not fully understand your reasoning, since I am a technical numpty as enny fule kno. However it occurs to me that advertising revenue may be related to claimed membership and that this might have financial implications. Of course the size of the membership may be entirely irrelevant to whether advertisers choose to place adverts here; and the fees may not vary with the size of the board. But it worries me. I would like to have your assurance that the size of the membership has no financial effect at all, and if you can do that I am content to leave quietly. Otherwise I must insist since I would not like to be party to any financial impropriety |

| |  I find this all very, very ironic. A few months ago, all of you people making such a huge deal out of this nonsense were at my throats about what I said when I left. Now I was asked to come back to make things more bearable, and everyone has a hissy fit, throws public tantrums regarding private subject matter and leaves. For the same reasons I did no less.  Oh, the slow folk always lag behind.

Assumptions make people look like idiots.

| | Fiona,
The technical implications seem reasonable to me, but since I've never run a forum others would be able to support/debunk the reason given better.
But quoting someone's PM isn't generally polite. Maybe if you removed it and just paraphrased the technical reason given instead? It's up to you but I wouldn't want you to be rude without intending it. http://www.gamebanshee.com/forums/884656-post66.html
And this forum will be weakened by your absence. |
