There is an very easy solution for this. Stop deleting posts and threads. I for once will not participate as long as thread I am in are in danger of being locked. basicwiz, no matter how likable he was/is in private was completely unfit as moderator. He acted far too often- I don't understand what is wrong with the Poser forum management, apparently they agreed with his style as moderator! basicwiz actually asked me, who works with Poser 14 to 16 hours 7 days a week what I was doing in the forum! Both in public and in private mail. But at the Marvelous Designer forum, which have been unmoderated for 3 years I was choosen as one of their evangelists. I notice that two posts have been deleted already, from this very thread. The only result of all this will just be an empty forum.
