    Yeah, and I will miss fuscia, too.

    I don't care that he has a new nickname, the old fuscia is dead.

    This only led me to the same conclusion fuscia ('s persona) came to: maybe the UF are not for me, afterall.

    I am sorry Rav Tux has gone, he was one of my favourites. It just shows you have to be really careful what you post. Even one of my threads ended up in the jail, it's easily done.

    I hope this gets sorted out, sooner or later, and he is readmitted into the forums. It won't be the same without him.

    AND Fuscia, too.

    Yes, I gathered that from the related posts I've quickly gone through, and know I do not have enough information on both sides to make any sort of judgement.

    Or as I like to say about any conflict (not sure where I've gotten it from, but it works)
    In any conflict there are 3 sides:
    • his
    • hers
    • the Truth
    And never shall any be identical.

    Hmm!! Don't know the background, don't really want to know, but I find it odd and sad that Rav has been kicked. I found most of his threads had to be either indulged or ignored (not in a harsh way but in a way that meant just glide over it if you don't have time, they could be addictive). And that was the best way to take them. He had a view on life similar to my own, somewhat at 23 degrees to head on.

    I was going to rant, but I guess i'll leave that for another day!

    I've followed the links above and still can't find where he has broke the rules of conduct. I'm sure the UF council has good reason, but I wish the reasons could be cited.

    What is worst is that you can't talk about it because admins closing the thread. What kind of freedom is there if a community cant talk about this kind of things.

    I liked some of his threads and some i din't like but you have a choose if you want to read them our not.

    Mods close good threads because someone did some spam threads in the past, and after some complains it was reopend. I think its getting to strickt and to trigger happy on a personal feeling of a mod/admin ( not from tux but someone else)

    The Forum Council spent a lot of time making their decision, and it wasn't a light decision. If the parties involved wish to contest that decision, the course of action I believe is to add it to the agenda and bring it before the Forum Council. It was not an action of a single person or mod.

    This thread is not supposed to be about such things. If you have a problem, post it in the Resolution Centre. Keep the thread on topic.
