twinstar_ca Posted April 15, 2024 Report Posted April 15, 2024 That's quite the bombshell to see unleashed today. I had no idea this was even in the works!! For all the members, I have no idea what has brought this about nor was I made aware... I think it's safe to say that I am the moderator who has had the most involvement here and I WILL miss those friendships I have made. If anyone wants to stay in touch, send me a message before the rug is pulled, I mean the forums cease operations. Grant🙁 4 1
atari Posted April 16, 2024 Report Posted April 16, 2024 If I had to put my finger on it, it would be because of the BC ambulance post… 1 1
GrayHorizons Posted April 16, 2024 Report Posted April 16, 2024 Im as surprised to see this as anyone else...or maybe not surprised?
CM119 Posted April 16, 2024 Report Posted April 16, 2024 Probably because they’re getting tired of companies demanding content be redacted or pulled. 1
CM119 Posted April 16, 2024 Report Posted April 16, 2024 “If you are interested in taking over this Forum, please contact us prior to July 1.”. This is an interesting catch, they are offering for someone else to pick up the torch. I wonder how much headache would be involved in maintaining this forum. Moderating and filtering libellous and offensive posts is almost certainly one thing that has to get old fast. Answering to companies threatening litigation is another risk. Will the forum be allowed to stay affiliated with vertical or not is another thing I’d wonder. It is probably for the best interest of companies exclusively that the forum shut down. There have been several warnings to contributors this would happen should the risky content continue, now here we are. 4
Razorback Posted April 16, 2024 Report Posted April 16, 2024 And I just signed back up not that long ago. Can’t really blame them from some of the garbage being posted on here these days. 1 1
Tripod Posted April 16, 2024 Report Posted April 16, 2024 wtf, literally just signed up a few weeks ago.
helimech1234 Posted April 16, 2024 Report Posted April 16, 2024 Maybe the six or eight grumpy regulars that probably lead to 95% of complaints could run it from a perch at A&W during seniors discount coffee hours. 2 7
