odeathoflife - I'm not saying I'm unhappy here, just worried. I've been here quite a while and don't just want to "bail" when things get tough. I'd like to see resolution and find out exactly what's going on. I know a site like this needs money to run the way it needs to be run. I understand that from a business standpoint he needs to at least cover his costs per month running. However, he does NOT need to start banning people and throwing slanderous rumors around about members/former members like Penguinisto stated he did. "Then Tim claims that Mehndi and Co. were only going to post things that would destroy R'osity and mislead merchants. When challenged to come up with proof, there was none." If that's the way he wants to run his business, he's going to run into more problems than helpful solutions. If he is worried about "trade secrets" getting out to the general public, then site topics such as the store SET UP needs to be in an admin forum, not anywhere else. If, as has been stated, the merchant forum contained no site secrets and was all about merchants and vendors being in contact with each other and helping one another out, there should be NO worries whatsoever about that. If part of a contract is breached, and someone leaked personal or private information I can see the need to change things, but going back on what is in a signed contract is actually illegal. As per, "don't let the door hit you on the way out" that statement is quite out of place in this thread. Not to mention, it makes you sound like a petty child that has nothing useful to say. And in reply to you, I say this. "If you have nothing nice to say, don't say it at all." Then again, that's just my 2 cents. Kymm
