I've certainly not been here as long as many people, never been to a Planet function at Joes or anywhere else either... but it sure seems like many of the people who have are no longer wanted, by that I mean that their complaints are no longer heard and if they are they're discounted in a big way.
"hey you guys chose to leave, oh well see ya" doesn't seem like a very friendly or loyal proposition to people who've been so good for this site... me, I'm something of an outsider anyway so its not a personal matter, but the fact is that it seems like many solid vets are leaving and no one gives a damn, maybe because "we have the traffic, your loss means little".
FTR... Flop has never been anything but cool to me, honest answers to private questions, many pos rep messages etc... that's why I think he should stay on, he might let emotion get the better of him but so do I and I'm 43... I'd like to think I'm above that at 43, but all too often I find that I'm not and get drawn into things. We're all human.
Phil... there is all too often a cool arrogance in his dealings with others... "hey take it or leave it, not gonna cuss ya or whatever, just gonna jack you up and/or ignore you in any other number of ways, been here a long time? show up to the functions? don't care we got plenty of traffic without ya"
Dudes never done anything to me, but I do notice that beefs with longtime members don't seem to mean much to him.. all of the time, money and memories ought to count for more than they do, with certain people, than they do with Phil... IMO.
Maybe I'm white knighting a bit, but it sure seems like personal feelings and pride play a larger role than they should sometimes... "I'm not gonna beg" sounds like another way of saying "I don't care" sometimes.
