Where is SoulTYPE01?

[Scuba Pete]

Hey Maize,

You can't please everyone though you obviously try.

Everyone:

It's easy to make judgments about who did what and why. Unfortunately, we only see a small part of what Rex, Maize and all the rest of the mods have to deal with on a daily basis. Their job is to protect us (and the forum) from abuse so that we can have a great time here. They have done a WONDERFUL job. Steve indicated to me how unhappy he was at times since he could not seem to play by the rules. When that happens we all lose. I don't blame the forum for someone's inability to place nicely in the sandbox. I am just glad that the sandbox is as civil and productive as it is.

However, If I EVER decide to leave you won't find a public renouncement of the forum. I would probably tell at least one or two mods, but my departure would be non-melodramatic. It's their forum, their rules and I am just a guest here. The forum will continue with or without me.

Thanks for such a great forum. I have enjoyed it here, and will continue to enjoy it.

NetDoc;

You made me realize how little I think of the work the 'Mods' do; and you are right - it can't be easy 'keeping tabs on us'. I think this just goes to show how easy it is to forget the hard work 'behind the scenes'.

 

[Scuba Pete]

The mods work best when you don't see them work. As an owner of a HUGE forum (38,000+) I completely empathise with what they have to do. This forum is my happy place.

 

[Green Gaia]

If it is ok I will remain as a member here because I do enjoy many of the other psots and things that I have learned from each of you.

Of course it is OK.

 

[Green Gaia]

Thank you, NetDoc.

I hope everyone understands that the Mod Staff is here to ensure that the forum is a welcoming place to all who wish to follow the forum rules. We're not out to get anyone, quite frankly, we don't have time for nonsense like that, lol.

Please everyone remember that if you have a question or concern about ANYTHING you can PM me or Rex, or any of the moderators. That's what we're here for and we want to answer your questions so that you can enjoy the forum.

Now, let's go have some fun! :woohoo:

Thanks NetDoc! And I couldn't have said it better than Maize...

I am very happy you aren't leaving FBI !!!

 

[Lookingformeaning]

Well, even though I only joined RF about a month ago, I have gotten to know steve and I had the opportunity to read a few of his posts before he left and I have to say to me he is a nice guy and will be missed (Well, by me anywayz. )

 

[kreeden]

The way I see it , a forum is like an open house party . Anyone can stop by , and pretty much do as they please .... as long as they respect the rules of the house . And the Mods have the often thankless job of making sure that everyone does respect those rules .

As for Soul , I have always liked him . I hope that he is doing well .


BTW , if you didn't like this party , there is always another ....

 

[kreeden]

Oh , and it is good to see you back Druidus .

 

[FyreBrigidIce]

I am very happy you aren't leaving FBI !!!

Thank you Master Vigil. Honestly so am I.

Glad to see you're staying, FBI.

Nice to see a lack of melodrama here today too.

 

[fromthe heart]

It was his choioce to leave...and I think hujairo left too...It's hard to lose family members here but if they choose to leave because they are unhappy it's their right to do so. I don't think it's wise to gossip about them and their choice. It's best left alone.

Amen to that.... well said.

 

[Feathers in Hair]

FBI, you cannot imagine how relieved I was to tune in and see that you were staying! (Well, maybe you can, but it's an expression, hehee!)

I know that internet families move on, but I'm so happy that someone I consider a sister is continuing! *huge hugs*

Shall the happy pagan dancing commence?

Hello all, no, nothing bad..

I wasn't going to post here, . I think it is fair that the I help clear up this issue and post what the business is. .

REX feel free to delete this account, but all I ask is that this thread remains for a
small period as I do NOT want this sort ot thing to happen on your board.

Yes, Maize is right, I DID ask for my account to be disabled. Here is why I asked it to be.

I was going through a lot of stress and depression, right before I was booted. The reason I asked MZto disable my account, is so that I could take a break from here whilst I sort things out. Also I wanted it disabled so that during this depression, I could not log on to the board whilst I was in this state, and bring everyone else down with more negative postings, thus reducing the ability fo others to post in a
fun and friendly environment.

I kinda got over the silly thoughts of "This Mod hates me or Deut disliked me."
Instead, what I should have done is just accepted that everyone can't get along with
everyone. I still have friends here that I converse with, but Brandy(FBI) and Brooke (Watcher) have to be two of the best friends I have ever met. Of course there are others

I was not responsible for any hardships that took place from this thread
here and did not ask anyone for this thread to be started. Whence I had gone, I moved on, people come and go. And I did go. Sure, I made other accounts for RF, but didn't mean any harm by them, I came to PM a few people because I didn't want to lose the friends I had made here. I fully understand the accounts being deleted.

Things are looking alot better now
I have a forum (lol Rex, no ISO's or RAT tools), just a friendly one for people to hang out and chat.I met this wonderful lady that I really like (someone here knows her very well ) I make websites for an employment agency (from home) now and realized there ARE people that do care..I am
alot happier now (Bastet's posts are correct) , and I definitly am NOT lying at all. I am happier. Others on messenger have even told me, and I am obliged to agree.

So, you see. That may help people in understanding the story a little better. Rex, you may do your thing and delete this account. All that I ask is that this post remains so that these incidents do not happen again. Believe it or not I do not wish for such an ordeal to take place here.

I do not hate anyone here, or have a grudge against anyone. I mean no harm to any member here, or any ill of the board. I do not wish trouble for moderators and members here.

Hopefully this has cleared up some things and helped us all to move on. Best of luck to ALL of you.

Steve.

Best of luck, Steve! I enjoyed talking with you in chat. Frubals to you.
