Well I refuse to personalise this by naming anyone, but what I believe is the aim of some posters, and it is to un-make rules that have been made over recent times which they don't like.
Now rules/laws etc are evolutionary, and there was no punishment for murder until the first one was committed, and so these rules evolve to keep pace with events.
I suppose the first murderer complained that they'd made up the laws against killing just to spite him!
Personally I would like to go back to when petrol was 1/- a gallon, and beer was 10d a pint, but it ain't going to happen, so I either stay home thirsty, or I drive to the grocery store and buy the beer. The same is true of this hankering for Mudcat to be the way it was, it isn't going to happen. Either the Russians or the Chinese have a saying that goes like this.
'You can't put your foot in the same river twice'
Think about it!
