Geez maybe they want the form to them selfs or/and thier buddies?????
god bless this form (home) and the people who reside.
Might as well add a card modeling section
Not that I've been that active over there, but that lunacy was the last straw... I'm outta there.
apparently ive either been banned or they have made my account inactive. Its saying i dont have sufficient access to view the thread that was posted above by Gus nor do i have sufficient access to make a post in a thread over there LOL
ehhhh who cares, that place has really gone down hill, and its no big deal that my account has been tampered with. It was probably because my thread of saying goodbye when the new gauge opened created such a fuss LOL. Today was the first time i tried to go back there since i left.... lol
what thread? I am confused. It says I am kicked out and can't read it? Someone care to fill me in?
Same with me. Got kicked out, too. Not that I would care ...
The thread has been deleted.. It's in the trash pile (Viewable by Mod's only).. the last post says:

Yep, along with Catt's and the other card modeler admin, who was "demoted" by Sanjay. A real pity about what's happening there, but it's a good idea to let them sort things out for themselves. We all care, but things are starting to get a bit out of hand and we want to stay out of the fray if we can.
Thank Don and Mikey for getting us out of there before the stuff really hit the fan. Thanks guys

I don't even want to look. It once was a good place but that changed a long time ago. I probably don't exist over there either. The invite to come here was quite welcome , The Admins and mods here are a special group, who do an excellent gob and deserve all the credit for what this site is today.
I did a quick check, and those whose fate has been to "become guests", still doesn't include removal of all their posts. They are no longer on the member list. I did not try to click on the name to see what info came up, and I don't know if a search for posts will work. I also don't know if any of their attachments are still in place, I'll have to go back and test these things.
Not a member, clicking on name no longer works.
Photos are linked from a photo hosting site, and are still there. Still can't verify uploaded attachments.

I am able to log in again, fwiw.
Kevin,
They haven't been deleting everyone, just the few that have spoken up. Once you are deleted, your posts remain, but you appear as "guest" and your post count goes to "N/A". You no longer show up on the member list either.
Two things, I'd advise not to speak up too harshly there in anticipation that you could get "deleted" as a member, and secondly, I strongly advise you not to try to get anyone to come here by posting a link or even mentioning our forum name. You will be dealt with swiftly there if you do. If you want someone to know where we are, you should contact them by email only. I think most of the members that count know about us anyway.
Boy, those guys are a hoot to watch sometimes...they need to get a hobby or something.
