Unfortunately that's what generally happens, be a shame to lose this place.Last mod visit was Nov 27 2015. Last admin visit was sl Oct 2015.
I know, his pictures were the reason I got my A. Versicolor.Martin Oosthuysen (mod) used to be on a lot. It was his wonderful photos that really hooked me and I have wondered what happened to him.
Just out of curiosity, which posts were harmful to the hobby? I don't remember them..there's always some silliness and joking around, there's been a few blowups, but harmful to the hobby? I'm honestly curious which posts you're referring to.Clearly no moderation is not working. The shipping topic.keeps popping up, even though we all know, or should know, this is not something we speak of publicly. A mod would have swooped in and ended the discussion and deleted posts.
There have also been a few posts that sbould have been edited due to their harmful effects on the hobby.
I volunteered to help mod this forum back at its inception, I was ignored.
I had no idea the shipping topic was a no no. I deleted my post in that thread. I hope it didn't do any damage. I think the fact that I had no clue (and doubt Casey did) is a clear indication that this forum does need moderators (they wouldn't have to be rude). I don't know how the process works (vote, volunteer?) but I bet Schoolman would be a good choice for a moderator. I am not very active but I log in every day, read and learn every day. I don't want to lose this site. If I can help (donate, vote, send a message to have passwords passed on...) please let me know. Again apologies for my ignorance I'll have to be more cautious.Clearly no moderation is not working.

You don't need to apologize. And I don't think we need moderators either. I'm sorry, I think the forum is doing great without moderation. It's one of the things I love about this forum. I'm sure it won't last, but I'm enjoying it while I can.I had no idea the shipping topic was a no no. I deleted my post in that thread. I hope it didn't do any damage.
