And spare me the managerial mumbo jumbo, I've a degree in it! :D None of this 'stream-lining', 'outsourcing', 'back-office' crap.

In plain terms, can you guys please explain what will change? Because by Dragon's own admission, his announcement doesn't reflect the facts of the situation.

Can we please keep this thread constructive too everyone? Thanks.
 
I'm afraid we're all about to start getting a lot of spam at the email addresses we signed up with....

Just a bad feeling that I hope is wrong :(

I doubt that very much. That is one way to kill a forum stone dead.

Agreed. It's just the vague wording and general mysteriousness of what is actually happening that gives me the feeling that something fishy is going on.
 
Whatever happens unless it is done such that it is supported by the existing active membership it will result in them stopping taking part here. That is the reality. The reality also as far as I'm concerned is that if it was my decision the first thing I would do is consult with them!

This obviously hasn't happened so we shall just have to sit on our hands until the proposed changes take place and make a judgment on whether they are of benefit to us as individuals or to the community as a whole.

I just hope Dragon manages to implement the changes he views as important while maintaining the ethos and feel of site while maximising his return on it because that as I see it is the real agenda here.

Fo shizzle - if it was me, I'd implement some php that turns random words in posts into links that are actually ads. Tricksy...

....nobody would come to my forum, though. :D
 
Hi all,

Dragon, Evil Twin and I are going to give you more explanations very soon.

Anyway :
- Don't worry: nobody is going to spam you or something like that. Actually reading this surprises me, but I can understand this because you don't actually know us yet...
- We totally agree that we ("we" means all of us: members, Dragon, Evil Twin and I) have to discuss so the changes make everybody happy

So, please be patient and we keep in touch very soon! :)
 
I wish I knew why everyone was being called Scooter now...

Google returns a bunch of pansies riding retard-wannabe-motorcycle looking things...which is funny in itself - but somehow I doubt that's the joke. :(

I don't know how to handle this level of professionalism. You're not gonna put pictures of testicles or anything, huh? In all my combined years of lurking and participating on this forum (about 6 total now), I've never seen a moderator or any other authority figure post anything - I've heard rumors of this "Dragon" character...

I'm impressed....honestly....but I still don't know how to handle it. :o I'm kinda excited. I still think you're gonna spam my email, though:p - I got my eye on you ;)

I joined 8 years ago. I seem to recall this Dragon character posting back then. So he must exist.
