Yes, another good member deleted again. My bet is that is has to do with the moran that sent them abusive PM;s just recently.
To gutless to say it in public so use the PM to do so, this kind need to be exposed instead of good people leaving, this just gives an easy win to faceless morans that cant discuss a topic in a civilized manner.

At a guess I would say that Cindy gave the abusive member the flick JC, so although sad to lose a good member at least the abusive moron won't be able to send anymore.
Maybe if anyone is in touch with the good member they can entice them to rejoin, even under another username etc.

I believe Cindy doesn't delete members lightly and always does her own research before making any moves...
The other point I would like to make is that sometimes new member come here thinking they can take over the place and force their opinion on others...
This forum, like all other forums, is for offering your opinion while accepting others opinion.. and accepting that sometime there is more than one way to look at things..

The reason this is such a good forum is Cindy does penalize abusive morans, unlike some other forums I have posted on. Her rules make it run well.In my opinion, we don,t need abusive members. Thanks Cindy, Bill

Spot on Bill, and she has acted on a number of occasions to dump those who deserve it.
That is not to say all, some are given a warning or told to tone their posts/pm's down depending on the circumstances.
Thanks Cindy from me also.

Hope whoever it is JC they have a rethink and come back soon. This forum is way too good to let people upset you. I just don't read curtain posts and I'm sure there are people that don't read mine, all good. I realise PM's were the problem in this case as you mentioned. Just let Cindy know about them. I would just ignore after that.
Lifes way too short to let morons upset you.

Why not barrie? This is the real world where some need to insult others and they tend to gravitate across forums.
I left a popular forum after years of Cr** posts from some and they also move on. You can see their style as they reappear, and the same thing starts again on the new forum.
Yes Cindy does a good job on this forum.

I guess this may be the member who left, profile shows deleted membership.
Pity, I thought the matter may have been resolved.
Yes it is terrible that people are treated like this - when all said and done this is a friendly, informative site where, from my side, are a great bunch of like-minded people. This treatment happened to me on another site and I left. The person in question received some negative comments when it happened but I notice that he is still there and nothing was done to him. Congratulations Cindy for taking this on board and sorting it out - just hope the person that left can feel that they can come back as the bad egg has been sent packing!!

Every body is entirely free to their opinion whether they are new or old members.
It's just how low they they stoop. To get booted of must be pretty serious remarks can leave people open to defamation cases to. Cindy is within her rights to act as she feels with the posts.

I am a moderator on another sort of related forum to this one....and forum policy is ABSOLUTELY no abuse etc towards any other member. It usually starts just a little angst like but can grow real quick if not jumped on ASAP I find....but when the perpetrator sends ME an abusive PM....well lets just say the bus has come and gone at warp speed !
Have been a mod there for more n 6 years...and the forum mostly looks after itself....but every now and then a small incident will crop up to be dealt with.
So I have a pretty good idea of what Cindy can deal with...and my respect goes out to her !!!
Cheers Keith

I was away when all this happened and no it wasn't easy to find who MAY have been the abused member as per my post link, I will say after some time searching again tonight I noticed a particular member was banned on the same day as the post by a member asking how to report abuse on the forum by, so I guess it is reasonable to assume they may have been the person involved, but I don't know for sure if they were the person or why they were banned. And that was Native Pepper who was banned on 21st May, the day the other person said they would report it in the link. So if it was, good on Cindy for taking the appropriate action which would have been warranted whatever the circumstances of that particular banning.
As a help to newer members or others who may not have read the rules I will just repeat Cindy's comments in the previous link I provided;
"I would like to make it very clear that the abuse of the PM system will not be tolerated on this forum. As far as I am concerned, there are no exceptions and no excuses. It is a fundamental requirement for a successful and harmonious forum The PM system is basically a way for people to make friendly contact with each other and maybe exchange more personal comments or information than they would choose to share on the open forum. This is clearly stated in our forum rules. If anybody ever has any issue in this regard or - more widely - any concerns about a particular post or a particular poster, please do not hesitate to contact me and I will take what I consider to be the appropriate action. I hope that is clear enough. Thanks, everybody."
