    it was answered in the second post. People are just looking for gossip now, tbh.

    The reason to as to why the thread was deleted? I don't see it in the 2nd post tbh.

    I suppose I'II just have to get on with things as best I can :pac: Sure there was a good reason for it though...

    Hey buddy all i want to know is why he left, or see his leaving post, nothing more
    Has it struck you that if Watty wanted to answer that question here, there's nothing to stop him doing so?

    And that if he doesn't want to, it's no-one else's business to do so on his behalf?

    ive never heard of watty, so by default that makes him irrelevant in my little universe.

    Hagar on the other hand was the best moderator on boards*.. i see hes stepped down.

    well, bollox to that. icon13.gif




    *opinion not in one way influenced by the fact he lived in athlone once
    I made him leave.
    I was against him being made an AH mod from the beginning and I pushed to have him taken away from AH. He saw the posts that were supposed to be deleted and went nuts.

    The above is a lie. I missed the whole thing. Let's pretend that's what happened though.

    You're doing it wrong.

    Here's how you do it:

    Women are inferior to men in all fields and are unable to carry out the same tasks as men.

    Also, Cork sucks.

    It wouldn't be sensible to do that, seeing as it was quickly deleted.


    Some Facts:
    1. I was planning to step down as moderator and curtail time spent on Boards anyway.
    2. Boards is fantastic at keeping out Abuse, Porn, Shills, Trolls, spam and Numpties/Muppets. There is however no clear resolution mechanism for serious differences of opinion not related to the above.

    3. Dav thought it was a good Idea to give me an Infraction in Mod Forum (AFAIK, the 1st such). It has now expired. But as I regard it as unjust, I'm gone. Boards relies on volunteer Moderators and regular high quality posters to build it. It's unpaid user generated content.
    4. I don't wish to generate the content any longer. Even if somehow I was to return, it would be only to post, not as a Moderator. Returning seems unlikely as Dav obviously believes it was correct to infract me.

    The original post went into the detail of the background, but really that's not the reason I left. Many people on boards know what the nature of the disagreement was, it's not appropriate to to discuss it here.

    I really appreciate the thanks shown here.: http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2055678589

    Goodbye and thanks for all the fish.
