    No, this thread was about the member who recently left after I tried to get him to stay and after he shared his PM bullying with me.

    You haven't addressed any issues raised and have only attacked the messenger while producing no facts of your own. Again, why so defensive? Does, Vendor, Senor Moderator mean attack dog for the forum?

    I explained what your problem was

    You simply have decided that "Everyone" is against you, which honestly seems to be true, but that could mean that everyone else is picking on you for no reason, or perhaps you might want to look at what you are doing to cause it

    I am trying to help you here but you refuse to even consider that, you are a long time member which is the only reason why I am even attempting to explain that the problem is you..


    You really might want to consider that you are causing your own Trend here...

    See now you crossed a line in the post I just deleted

    Don't call out other members, this seems to be an issue for you

    That is a real Warning as a Senior Mod now

    I think that it is important to help guys that want to learn what we do on this forum. I dislike when problems unrelated to the purpose of this forum are thrown into the mix for no other purpose than to show "what a good guy I am and you are chasing people away."
    I have not seen any evidence of the complained trend. Admittedly I have not seen every post or response written. But I have seen members extend patience and courtesy of greater measure than the "Trend" herein complained.
    Proper prior planning prevents piss poor performance.

    My two coppers worth:
    I can't speak to anything that was present for other individuals. I have however been welcomed warmly. The pm messages I have received do show this continued niceness. I appreciate everything this community brings to my day and the diversity of people here.

    I find that all social platforms bring out the best and the worst in people. And more often than not forum groups always have a dynamic of elitism. My thoughts as one of the new guys here is sometimes we fly off. It really is our responsibility to own it and simply say sorry. Arguments won amongst friends usually loses the friend. I consider you guys online friends/acquaintances and would hope if I said something hurtful, right or wrong, would be willing to apologize.

    There was no "trend", only an attempt at trolling, or at best rudeness, which will not be tolerated.
    In this case thread closure should be considered a warning.
    The white gleam of swords, not the black ink of books, clears doubts and uncertainties and bleak outlooks.
