I can save this site and turn it around.

And now you as a new member insult us as well? Save your own site first mate, then look at saving what needs no saving...

umm... mine does not need saving...

Well neither do this one...

If you have this attitude on your new forum, good luck...

Adding to swipe,as I'm typing too slow!

I have really had very little time to spend time on the site as the @#$%*& recession has really hit me hard and have been having enough trouble just keeping my head above water without having to worry about stuff on here I'm afraid.

Providing things take a turn for the better for me in real life soon, I will probably be in a better frame of mind

I do understand but real life happens to all of us. If you can't get to/have the patience for your duties, it is unfair to the loyal people on this site. Let's face it, there is only one active moderator...that's it. No admins, no other moderators. Maybe the time has come to appoint people who can do the job (and is up for it) AND are active, as admins and mods. I'm not suggesting that you delete yourself, just get people to help you in your admin responsibilities.

And so starts the downfall of tarantulas.co.za that Ive been predicting since the beginning of the year.

This is a sad day indeed...

If you say so!

Thanks to all! This has been a lively discussion!

I say so yes. This site has been around before you knew what a Tarantula was. It's been through dips like this, yet we are still here and growing. You have a long way to go mate... beleive me.

I am done wasting my energy on dipshits that have no loyalty nor ethics, and that is a general statement, not a personal one.

I wouldn't declare war on the heavy weights in the hobby Stefan,

Bear in mind, that a lot of us have been in this for a long long time, and have grown with the forum.

Respect here is key.

We have a high regard for honor. Yes you've overstepped your boundaries, but it should not be the be all and end all.



Question we should all ask ourselves is this - does our actions expand or shrink the hobby?
