Ahhh, gotcha.I'm saying it is healthy. Then again there is a point arrived at when "benevolent" administrators might decide dissent in unhealthy as the current situation exhibits. As usual, it is necessary to find the middle way.
And the community comment was for anyone who might think their participation here is virtual.
It goes without saying I agree.

I owned a forum once (I was the original owner). Let me tell ya, I was discussing matters with a fellow admin, because he was making decisions without my consultation. He went around raising hell, trying to make me look like an authoritarian dictator, simply because I tried to put my foot down. It not only ruined my reputation as the owner, but now the community and forum no longer exists.
I don't know whats been happening lately, I really have no clue. There have been many changes. Sure it can feel a little unsettling. But all I know is that I'd really hate to see people go when it is unnecessary.

I can't speak for standing_alone, FFH, but I'm very much dealing with it. I'm dealing with it by refusing to put up with it anymore.
Indeed.

Exactly, and that's my true intent for this thread; for people to air their gripes. Since the thread for questions was closed, people need a place to say what they need, hence I created this.

Sorry, but if all we've been given is one side of the story who's fault is that?
And Danisty clearly isn't/wasn't the only one upset. She's just the one who was most vocal about it.

From what I have heard, it is VERY bad behind the scenes. There has always been some rather bad stuff behind the scenes here, but it seems to have gotten worse. Loosing several mods this fast is a good indicator.
It seems the only things that have changed is features lost, owners that rarely interact, loss of staff, and worse of all, loss of members.
Thus far, I have been most displeased with the new owners. I have not noticed anything positive from the new owners initial upgrade. Features were lost, and despite an upgrade, the site was still hacked into.
I'm not saying there aren't problems Luke, it's just that most of what I'm hearing from people is, "I'm upset over people leaving...so I'm leaving".
that doesn't make any sense to me.

I personally feel that it's the members that make this forum great. If enough members wish to stay on and preserve the greatness of this forum by being powerful voices against what they perceive as a threat, it will remain what it is.
A resounding amen to that! :bow:
Let's not let this wonderful forum go down in flames without at least putting up a good fight. Knockout Remember, a "house divided against itself cannot stand." We, the great people of RF, are what truly make this forum special. Let's stick together and make this thing work.

Ditto. Especially to the walls. That could be fun.
Should I get out my wallpapering supplies then?

I think everyone needs a break. We should do something fun together, like this: http://www.religiousforums.com/forum/games/57642-anyone-want-join-my-dunder-mifflin.html.

That was shameless, Jonny, shameless.
Come stick to the walls with us. We're just hanging around, after all.

Yeah. I better be careful or I might get banned for spamming the forums.

I don't think Spam sticks as well as gum, though...

It doesn't make any since to me either. If people complain and desire change, leaving will never bring it about.

It's not the size that counts. It's how many you can stuff in a can.
(Perhaps this is a post that should be removed? If so, I will gladly do so.
