Your "observation" IS ridiculous and disingenous.

I have no idea why "Gaz" chose to leave this forum forever. But animosity between members didn't begin at Chiefsplanet, they began at the old Star forum.

The reason this forum was created was due to heavy moderation of the Star forum. It was no long "fun" and Chiefsplanet and Kyle rose up and took it's place. It's not as if this place began without built-in animosities between members.

So, with that being case, that's hardly a leg to stand on in Gaz's defense. Furthermore, there is an obscenity filter and there is an ignore feature. So IMO, there was no reason to Gaz to leave under the circumstances you've postulated because it would be easy to ignore the language and the offending members.

What?

"First came on here". What? I joined in 2000, just after the forum was created and I was on the Star forum beginning in 1996. Furthermore, I had very few argumentative posts before the Herm era, which was the breaking point for many people.
