Thanks Zorba Firstly i apologize for some of the following content , as said in initial post , a clever person would do it differently and my reasons are selfish . From my recent observations it helped me to see that Keith has probably lost all interest . I apologize for going about it this way , in my defence , i only have the best of intentions and i agree with what you said to yourself when you first read the post . I needed to ask the questions to find if there`s any interest . I know i have no right or control , etc to be doing so . Your work is much appreciated and i have been aware of it . I wasn`t sure how much control you had however . I appreciate the way you don`t intervene as i feel one of the things that has always set this place apart is the self regulation and in this way every member has a say in the way it is run or the etiquette that is acceptable . As for the dissenters , i have no problem with their having an opionion but do have a problem with the way and form of their opinion . I did have the thought of taking them on at their own game but felt i didn`t have the right to do so and also it may have backfired and the gains would not outweigh the destruction of what we still have and they`d have no qualms in doing so , i feel . I had little regard for any so i feel no loss . I was proud to be a member here to see the responces they didn`t get . ................................... If you cannot contact Keith please let me know as i am pretty sure i can or will able to with a bit more discovery , although i`m not at all comfortable doing what i`ve done thus far . Cheers .......................................... Thankyou , Peter and Ned for your interest . ............................................. --Previous Message-- : G'day Peter : For the last three years or so I've : been keeping this site clear of spam : whenever I am able.
