This thread really doesn't serve a purpose on these forums. It's all well and said, but what's past is past. Somebody needs to move this to the wasteland.

Some people have recently decided that they will be hopping from message board to message board. I hate hopping from board to board because it is very inconvenient. I'm very frustrated that MacOSX.com has split apart. I don't want to go to some new board, I want to stay home. And, you don't have to move, it is your choice. But since two of your friends are moving, you want to go with them, right? This starts a chain reaction. I want this board to be united again.

I also want to change the logo to "United MacOSX.com."

Trip - under the terms of the new truce i think threads like this are very important. EVERYTHING needs to be said openly. all sides need to have their voices heard. To remove this thread would be to thrust us back into the darkness again. So it won't be me that ends it.

at the moment we are involved in the healing process. this wound will not mend without exposure to the air.

Very well said evildan.

Trip, I agree, let's let bygones be bygones.

Let's learn from our mistakes and move forward. We could hold grudges, or we can ignore that it happened, but neither would do any good.

Ed, I also agree with you on this matter. Wounds need to be healed, and sometimes out in the open is the best way to do it.

Currently "behind the scenes" the new "mod team" or whatever you would like to call it has been having some pretty in depth discussions on what words (not posts) should, or shouldn't be censored, what should be moved, and left in place. These topics happen "behind the scenes" only to allow us to focus, without being interupted. Once we have formed something that could even be construed as a path towards a final decision, we will more than likely let you know how it's moving.

The cause of many failed relationships can be attributed to communication. How can one being know another if they are blind, deaf and dumb.

(and have no touch, or smell, 'cause Helen Keller could communicate with out the three... anyway, anyway )

It's natural to be angry, or nervous. It's okay to acknowledge a fault, an error, a mistake. However, what makes those feelings negative or positive is what exactly you do with those feelings.

evildan's example of the protestors tells us that message, you can be angry and you can do varying degrees to one side or another. You can riot with your anger or, you can show or you can turn your anger into compassion, and gently show someone your hurt.

I'll leave it at that. If you feel wronged, you can either riot or peacfully protest. Some of you have chosen both sides.

Admin has attempted to remove what people are protesting.

I've said it before, but like all things that are worth saying, say it twice.

"Let it Go."

Let's get back to being friends, let's not forget what happened, but instead move forward remembering what we've learned.
