Anyway. You seem like a very smart and intelligent guy from the time I've known you on these boards and it honestly seems like your a bit wound up on emotions. I would be in your case as well. You may just want to take a healthy step back, chill out, then talk to Danny privately. There's no use in this thread, at this point. Talking to someone one on one can make a big difference.
It's not you I am annoyed at Kody, you have conducted yourself very well during all of this and if it seemed like I was taking it out on you I do apologize. I could talk to Danny one on one, but so far i have the distinct impression he does not care, he considered what I did a betrayal, and if thats the case i probably did betray him, because it was the right thing to do. He was quite happy to let picking on a member continue, and take part in it himself, I don't trust him and I have no faith in his management of the forums. The fact he thinks himself to be perfect, beyond criticism and that whatever he does is right makes this place sound like a dictatorship. I say again that under no circumstance should we have to resort to bullying because someone won't listen, we can be better then that, there is another better way. It's true James did not listen, but then we all began to act like kids and began to take everything out on him, it speaks volumes for us. I've admitted my shame and I stand by my decisions, I am sorry for attacking James, I wanted to try and do things properly, I don't regret re locking that topic, because it was bullying someone, if Daryl had done it Danny would have instantly shut it. I stand by decision to leave unless things will change, but i won't say what until I know he is prepared to listen and take into consideration whats happened, the way something should be done.
