Thanks Dave for your many efforts- and welcome new guys.

So, effective immediately! Finally some fresh leadership! Under Dave we swung from a font of unmitigated misinformation to rabid, unrestrained censorship- let’s hope the new guys can find the happy middle ground of responsible, sensible, fair & ethically consistent administration. Will they? We can only hope. Cheers and beers!

Delbert, has done a great job with Machineguns board and I know he will only make this board better.

Good luck David on this new venture. You will always have my support.

So you’d prefer having irresponsible, senseless, unfair, unethical and inconsistent administration. We’ll put you down as FOR that. Noted. I’d like to think and hope the new guys can certainly do better than that- but I’m an optimist... you do you!

Doubt anyone here would assess things as you have.

You do you.

I only stated facts and went out of my way to be civil, everyone can see you’re the one being nasty and creating conflict. It seems you’re fine with lies and unfairness as long as it’s skews towards your preferred ideology. Thanks for chiming I’m with the 100% expected and predictable authoritarian perspective, it is appreciated (even if tiresome and lame).

The fact is Rover Dave and other mods are still here and you can be banned. The way I see it rybread is you are starting trouble as usual. So go ahead and keep this thread off track. Your first post is a poke at Dave and any other mods on the website. You can always move on as well before getting the boot. The new owners won't put up with you either

You can't keep it civil go find another website that has all the political bullshit you want to be part of and hang there.

I’m sure they are and that’s why I went out of my way to be nice, and I was attacked. I was factual- I didn’t say anything untrue or disrespectful. It wasn’t a “poke” at anyone and I didn’t start anything. You guys shut down the political forum and specific discussions because of rampant misinformation. Since then, Many threads have been shut down and many Posts (Not mine) have just simply disappeared. Signatures were removed because someone perceived mine as being politically motivated (it wasn’t). Anyone denying these things is denying reality. I expressed hopefulness and optimism for a better experience for all users with new owners because I value this site. That is very much consistent with the theme of this thread.

The only one not having a good experience seems to be you. I dont get any other complaints. Your entire problem is saying anything at all you can't even welcome new owners with out causing problems.

We are done here keep it on track

LOL, I’m pretty sure you threw the first stone with this post

Thanks for the forum guys it’s been great. I do miss the political thread as I always had good laughs (when certain people would post, especially Rybread’s posts). I hope the new owners will be as good as the last one.

Again, big thanks.

When I read this post, I thought it must be "tongue-in-cheek." Surely, it had to be a joke. But apparently not. C'mon, man!

Rybread, it's the guys retirement post. C'mon.

Dave, I've been here about 8 years now and it's my favorite site because it's full of knowledgeable people and minimum drama. You've been a big part of why.

Thank you.
