Hahahahahaha. Attribution of contribution of knowledge is no small thing. I guess times change . . .

Their goal is to watch the site fade to black, not take it over. Some of the YouTube comments kind of gave away their MO and plans months ago.

Well, I just found this, for example: viewtopic.php?f=35&t=89578. His posts are still here.

I still find it off-putting that someone with less than 100 posts here, and another with less than 300, has now the authority to dump users who have contributed here for a couple of decades and who have thousands of posts.

See ya. I’ll check in from time to time to see if these heavy handed practices change. ‘Til then, bye; I’ll miss the interactions.

doubtful. We have a new moderating team that pretty much affected a forum takeover, apparently "for the common good" but given how much they posted about it on Facebook and reddit, it seems to be much more for self-edification and possibly self-aggrandizement.

Bring the Elephant back. As a member of one of your "disadvantaged" communities, I have found all of my interactions with Wade to be cordial and supportive. There are a handful of forum members that I would say are Tubenet, and he's one of them.

If he doesn't want to come back, I would understand it, based on some other information that I have seen.

Dr. Ige said that he had banned 2 people. I wonder who the other one is.

I'm glad to see that TubeNet is stlll 'alive'. Sean and Farah have done a remarkable job keeping things on an 'even keel' the nearly twenty years I've been hanging around here.
