Any poster who does not agree with the way the place is being run does not have to continue being a poster.

Does that also apply to those who feel themselves qualified to impose their judgement on their fellow posters but who are still constantly complaining that they cannot impose the peace they require? And who propose to futher change our forum into member's only posting?

What hope is there when those who you would consider are now running it - admit their failure, do not like what they have created but show no sign of changing this failed approach - or of leaving?   

This 'like or lump it' approach is not one that would have attracted me to posting on our forum - it is an intolerant, mean-sprited and fairly recent approach. Had I just arrived - it would be a case of 'lumping it'.

But I an not a recent arrival - I know that there is a better way and as long as I remain a poster here - I will do what I can to see if we can return to this.
