Thank you. No apology needed, regarding me anyways.

This is just your, as you say 'distinct impression'. Have you approached him via a private message? Have you tried to contact him on Google talk or one of his other IM's?
You can think anything you'd like, but until you speak to him one on one, it's speculation. (This is just fact in my eyes, not an attempt to speak down to you in any manner at all.)

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.

You keep mentioning 'Daryl'.. maybe it's just me, but I honestly don't know who that is. Must have been way before my time here. Is there a point you keep mentioning him or is it to stir up old things?
Do you want all of us to admit our 'shame' and openly apologize? Will this magically fix your issues with what happened to James? Many of us have already pointed, for one, back to his intro thread to show the effort that was put into welcoming him.
Oh, re-quoting something..

Did Danny ever say that? From all I know of him, he's perfectly open to criticism. But when it comes to the website, what he was trying to stress is that he owns it, runs it and dislikes people going against something he said without even consulting him. I know it's a tricky subject to word. Danny is reacting to a breach in trust / respect.
Ayia.. at this point, I'm really not sure what else to say. Good luck and happiness to you Chris, if you do end up leaving, but I really would like to see everyone stay.
