"Some things are best left buried, and not dragged back up from the grave. We fought that fight several months ago." That fight isn't over for many of us. Many people are still very angry about the complete unfairness of it. Long time members of rosity either quit or were banned over the issue. As far as claiming all the problems, well, we all created our own board to discuss exactly the same things, and both dems and repubs are there. The exact same people who loved the OT forum here and considered it home. And you know, we don't seem to be having huge arguments or flaming or any of the problems that were claimed here. The entire brouhaha was caused by one or two people using several names with the specific intention of shutting down the forum and causing trouble. The OT forum was my home on the net. It was where I went every day. Its loss has made me feel alienated here at rosity, which I've been a member of almost since the beginning. With my life and health swiftly falling apart, I feel that loss deeply. I can remember when this site had barely 40 pages in the gallery, and not more than a hundred members. But, evidently it threatens or offends people fpr others to express opinions they don't agree with, and they want only shiny, happy people who don't think at all. The monster of political correctness bowed to a couple of troublemakers who are probably now sitting back and laughing because of what they did. But the fight over? Never.
