Topic: Should George resign

[livo]

Certainly not Naga. I am just surprised that within a forum such as this, the normal membership level contributor even has the ability to implement a formal Forum Poll, obviously using a function designed to do it.

I am also astonished that a member would take it upon themselves to initiate such a blatant attack on the appointed moderator. ( Now reposted in 2 forms - resignation and sacking))

This is not to say that I agree with all that George has done or not. I don't agree with all that other members have done either, I am simply discussing the methods and levels used in this whole sorry situation.

Ouch, Now I'm really hurt by that.   Some of my good friends are of the other persuasion, but I'm afraid your wrong about me on both counts.

All I'm saying is this. I am a member of several other internet forums and I'm trying to imagine this type of vendetta against a moderator on any of the others and what would happen.  I can probably quite safely say that it would not be the moderator who ended up on the outside.

Obviously I'm just being light hearted
But I have shared a meal with George and he is a pleasant chap
But not a pleasant mod surly you can see that
Enough is enough

Yes, I knew that MT. 

I'm not worried about who is or isn't a nice chap, an absolute point head, or a good or bad mod.  It is the approach and methods being used that I call into question.  To any outsider, newcomer or one of the many members who remain in the background, it must be a very poor look.  This is tantamount to airing ones soiled linens in public.  It's just not a good look in my opinion.

But livo
This has not happened over night
It has been painful for a couple of years
And you starting another poll       well join the gang

Replied in the "polls?" thread. More relevant over there.

Anyway just heard the sad news
Richie Benaud has passed away
Very sad and puts things in perspective
Mt

He had been unwell recently and was looking very aged.  I love the 12th man versions of Sir Richie. So unPC but I can't help laughing my heart out.

Another sad day for cricket, eh what!

Livo, with all due respect to yourself, I'm not sure how much time you spend reading this particular forum and how aware toy might be of George's pattern of behaviour and how harmful it is to the other users of this site.

The fact is, people have ignored and ostracised him for a long time and it's only resulted in more and more blatant provocation.. With admin not being around for the majority of the time, he has had free rein - people speaking out (as Gav did with his poll) is entirely the right way to deal with it, preferably followed up with a PM from each concerned member to Admin.
