Morals?, double standards?....do me a favor.

No he never he asked to leave the site, just before i was about to ban him for telling me and everyone who didnt like the way he was speaking to them, somthing to the effect of "tuff shit", what he didnt no was the people he told that to where also the people he then called mates in the next sentence and who also expressed a problem with the way he was talking to people, what do you know?

And just to put the facts on the table, that Jazz is well aware of!, Routout have never advertised on this site and never will. They sent me an email suggesting that they would be intrested in advertising but wouldnt unless i removed the thread in question. So that is the truth on that!

If you want to believe gossip because you trust the person spreading it then thats fine by me, BUT DONT EVER! BRING MY NAME OR MORAL CREDIBILITY INTO IT.

The way Jonathan worded it makes it sound as though Zapp should never be used. I'm all for alternatives being suggested, but to say "don't buy from" sounds as though there's some major reason not to use that supplier.
That's because interpretation of the sentence isn't what was intended or meant, if you go and read the thread you can clearly see that JB's comment is in the context of the discussion. You will also note that he never used the word Never, you have. In the same amount of time it has taken some of you to post, you could have just as easy asked JB what he meant by his comment, then made your own judgement.

Its to easy to think the worst of people, second guess them, then hold them at fault. When its just as easy to speak to them first.

Right, but JB hasn't said A is better than B, look i dont want to drag this on any more then it needs to. I've reviewed JB's comment and im fine with it, i dont want to see you or any one leave the site John - but i will, that's just the nature of what i'm doing here.

100% on the money with that Andy, you will notice that our moderator's have a small statement below their post's. It's their for a reason.

There is somthing else here that keeps poping up, i think i've said this to some of you before but i think it keeps falling on deaf ears, i'll try again. What being a Moderator means to one person isn't the same as what it means to me, JB and the others do a Job for me and they do that Job exactly how i've asked them to do it. That job, title and/or meaning has nothing to do with any opinions they express when representing themselves as members of the forum.

No one cares more about the success of this site/forum and what is to come more than me, so please, let me do the worrying and make the decisions on what is right and not right for the site, just like i have so far and in gettting us this far.

You just enjoy the site, if i cant please you all and every time, sorry but it's just tuff there is nothing i can do about it.
