RE: Goodbye all
Just so everyone knows where I stand,,, I know this forum is a private enterprise, I think it should be run at the discretion of the owners/management, and whatever is done to make the forum work like management thinks itshouldwork is all part of business,but from my point of view I just think that this decision sucks. Just so I don't get banned, I will say that I have said about everything I want to regarding this subject,,, (unless provoked)..

seriously, who cares about the staff? Is this forum for you? I realize decisions need to be made but you are going about it in thre wrong manner

RE: Goodbye all
god i hope i dont get in trouble for posting things said in the mod section, but here goes....
these are parts of posts made recently by glen, in a discussion started by staff asking him to not crap on other moderators in open forums
"I didn/t pick JamesW as my assistant. I do not like the guy and I have seen his car up close. I am also a volunteer. Get the hell out of my face."
and
"Come into my world, and I will teach you something, Otherwise, shut the **** up."
that is the attitude the admins here got fed up with dealing with. that is also the way conversations have gone between glen and the staff here for as long as i have been a moderator and have had access to that section.
again, admins please dont bust my ***** for posting that stuff but maybe it will help people understand why its happening.

glenn started this thread knowing full well his nut swingers would bad mouth and trash talk the mods and admins, and back him up to stay. glenn's going to wake up tomorrow, open his windows, and see there's a whole new world out there.

We got to know him in this section and appreciate him, minus a few ***holes that don't. The real Glen in here is fine by me. this a forum for discussion not for politics... and politics are what this has become.
I like the way this thread was setup like you moderators actually care.

too bad you never got to see the REAL glenn in the mod room

That is what America is all about today, suppression of "drastic views", don't have any of your own do you?

Thanks for your efforts Glen. It's too bad your opinions and views were so drastic. I'm sure your knowledge and insight to the classic community will be missed.

RE: Goodbye all
oh and btw,
he was asked if he could just cool down and play ball and he basically said no. that was his decision
he was given the opportunity to make a post stating that he would be resigning and he choose to word it in a way to intentionally stir up trouble.
66 obviously the mods knew about this before any of the regulars on the site, thats how things work (glen was very active in the decision to be removed, as can be seen by some of his qoutes i posted above)

I haven't been here long but have to admit I've made a habit of scrolling past his posts - and it's a shame because I'm sure he does have a wealth of knowledge. Maybe this can be a lesson learned for all - stick to the subject and take the opinions, jabs and sarcasm somewhere else. I'm sure there are many like myself here who are looking for facts and knowledge, and simply don't have the time to scroll through the crap. I tip my hat to those in charge for keeping control of such a fine website.

RE: Goodbye all
quit it with the conspiracy theories guys
simple fact - Glen sh*t the bed now he has to lie in it. We dont have to like the decision, butGlen can still contribute as a member if he chooses to do so. If he sees the support and chooses not to contribute, that's his loss as much as ours.
