I suspect that this is the reason why Rentech has now banned me from the site: To prevent my consulting with him and participating in his forums. Since that would just mean the site becomes the "Twojeffs Forums", instead of the "Pecado Forums" (sic). Unfortunately, as a result, our original plans to compile a single definitive "Critical Fix Patch" are currently on hold until the fallout settles. Since I have it on good authority that Rentech holds even completely pointless and irrational grudges forever, that would mean that Jeffy would probably have to defect to someplace not run by Rentech.
Ooh, ooh, I know just the place! :o

Exactly, I agree with you and with Motoki on that point. If you want a site for downloads only, don't put forums up. If a thread deteriorates into name-calling and other idiotic actions, by all means, lock it, but don't shrug of people with valid points, issues,and concerns. The thing with the avatar disturbed me very much the minute it started, especially since it had nothing even remotely obscene in it. It left things to the imagination, and unfortunately those very few with the "dirtiest" imagination beat RenTech into submission. (I put dirty in quotation marks because I don't find sensuality or sexuality dirty in the least)
So now I'm doing what you are doing. I posted a few times, mainly to ask other posters some questions, but I mainly just browse through TJ's and Carrigon's forums and then leave. You are right, that is after all what RenTech wanted, no?

Speaking of Motoki, where is Motoki, anyway? He might like it here, you know, with the lack of hysterically histrionic people in the chain of command, combined with the glaring lack of Rentechs, which I know he doesn't like very much. And I haven't kicked him in awhile.

Well, you're welcome to make the suggestion. I certainly can't, I seem to be banned at the moment, and rerouting through Vietnam = 5 minute lags.

I like this forum better than variousimmers, mostly because I like it when the administrator(s) of the site are very involved with the community. It might have been because of the threads I read, but I never got that impression on VS. Same thing with MTS2, although the main reason there is that it's just too big. Here, JMPescado is a visible presence everywhere on the site. Which I think is a good thing, although that may just be because I'm crazy.
Twojeffs needs to come over here, or something. He and JMPescado seem to work well togethor, and there's no point in them duplicating each others work. I'm drifting into incoherency here.

Last time I saw Motoki was in the "f***ing MTS2" (or however Rentech edited the subject) thread. He got the "if you don't like it here go someplace else" response and that's exactly what he did. Hopefully the peeing nanny will mysteriously appear on this site someday.
