What is happening? Seriously... Everybody on this blog is so quick to start arguments lately. KC you are absolutely right, this is a blog and you can say what you want to say, Amendment 1 in the Bill of Rights protects your ability to do just that. However, just because you are allowed to say something doesn't mean you should say it.
ACF was a great poster and he deserves a thread like this, whether the thread itself is self-serving or not. ACF should not have to see remarks like yours if he comes back to this thread when he signs on in a couple of weeks to check his PMs. What he should see is that plenty of people on this blog care about him and are saddened by his departure.
Many posters on this blog have become increasingly hostile as of late. I can see why people are leaving and/or becoming irritated. Let's face the facts, CB has changed, whether we like it or not, and people need to stop blaming that on the mods and the inner circle. There is an inner circle on this blog, no doubt, but is it harmful to the other posters who choose to post here?... No. The inner circle is simply a group of posters who post often, have many tommy points, and stars and all of these other little badges of merit. For some reason people see these symbols and think those posters are awesome. They are only people on a blog trying to make the blog better, just like you. They don't hinder us from talking on here. Seeing people complain about the mods and the inner circle is just ridiculous. You are ruining the blog by constantly complaining about non-issues like goodbye threads and tps, not the other way around.
