For a while I got forum burnout so I missed the reasons for your departures. I've spent weeks wondering where you were. Finally somebody at the other place started a thread about your absence. Somebody mentioned you were at this site, then that thread got locked. I've missed all of you. And since you left, things there haven't been the same. No new Corsair builds every other week. A lot less gratuitous aircraft porn. And a lot less wit. I've got no hard-on against anyone, so I'm not looking to say anything bad about anyone. Hopefully you won't mind that I've followed you here. Gaz I had a similar experience. I also have no problems. When I think how patient people were with me when I was on all those drugs, I can be nothing but grateful. I plan to visit both sites. Happily, my brain has finally cleared. It took two years! 4

You KNOW you shouldn't look, and you really, REALLY don't want to, but you just can't help yourself so you look anyway. So I read the entire thread, and it was interesting, to say the least. Kagamusha's initial response was classic disingenuous I'd say, but what do I know. Brian was classy as always as well. My take away was as such: They say we have aliases over there. I never have had, nor will I ever have an alias over there. Ever. Period. End of discussion. And I'm sure that applies to a few others I know as well, although what they do is their decision, not mine. I do look from time to time as a public visitor, same as I look at ebay, or any other public site. I expect the net loss is greater on their end, but I do have an extremely high opinion of myself. LOL. (OK, everyone who knows me knows I'm joking here.) I hope they succeed, but seriously, Ron really needs to take a long hard look in the mirror of self analysis. I tend to disagree a little Ernie. I think it's a great resource, filled for the most part with talented Modellers and good people. However there's never any excuse for profanity sent in a private message by Moderators or Administrators of a website, no matter the perceived or actual transgression. And as far as I'm concerned; anyone else who condones those actions, whether Staff or General Membership, is tarred with the same brush. Had I wished them harm, I could have shown Ron's PM to me (or a copy of the one you received Ernie) to all of their Site Sponsors. Or they would have woken one morning to find the Kit Database full of profanity or missing altogether, as I was one of the original 9 contibutors with a log-in (most of the Fw190 entries were mine for instance.) But I don't wish them harm. I just want them to exercise the same self control they expect of others. 2

I tried not to look, I seriously told myself I wouldn't, but in the end, I couldn't stop myself... I wholeheartedly agree with the talent that's there. There's a bunch, that's for sure. I certainly don't wish them harm. I've said a million times that it's a great resource, and I'll continue to use it until the figure out a way to block me or my ISP, I guess. 2
harv Posted October 25, 2018 Author Posted October 25, 2018 I agree with Ern and you. I wish no harm to anyone. Thats yesterday, this is today........Harv Oh look, a shinny new model !!!!!! 1
