Opinion of Banned Posters: Adam Griffin

[Simfan34]

By banning AG the moderators completely shattered whatever momentum or good-will they may have generated over the past day that would have allowed the forum to move forwards. On those grounds alone it was a terrible call, go say nothing of the flimsiness of the "reasons" behind his banning.

And I am obviously not someone who complains about the moderation on this site.

Yes. Dave must come down and address this himself. If there was something that could make me leave, it would be the kind of show of such immense apathy that him not doing so would be.

I can imagine the mods felt tired, betrayed, irritated, and probably angry after yesterday, but I think it can be said that not all pieces were looked at or looked at as well as they should have been. Hopefully you have a bigger picture now and can look at it in that light.

Dave generally is unresponsive, but he has been very active lately, and is quite concerned about all that has transpired - and very much saddened by it. So I would give a PM a try Train.

Why does he refuse to talk to us? At this point it is mere common courtesy, even if to publicly say "I have been following events" or something simple like that. It feels a bit like being an abandoned child.
