Some of you may have spotted that i am back
...well i never really went away with all the times i logged on since my "Flounce"
so lets just say i
wasn't actively posting/contributing on the forum for the last several days or so and genuinely had
no intention of coming back until i felt things had changed for the better...
Just a few things i want to address before i get back into forum life..
I know that the word "flounce" was banded about by certain people, but I didnt "announce my departure on the forum...

He was online last night, must have been some posts in the Louise thread
...in a post that was then removed he offered up "flounce" as a possible explanation as to why i might have left.!
He didnt use my name but most regular posters were aware of who
Sm©'s and gazfc's posts related to (If not at that point, they certainly were later on in this thread)

I only told a few people, via twitter (DM's before anyone says twitter isnt private) so had no intention
of making a "flounce" type thread or any other post announcing my departure. The above post and the one that was
edited or removed was one i felt the need to respond to, to clarify my side of the story.

fair point, but my leaving was not due to burnout or boredom of the channels as i actually
quite enjoy contributing and have done for the last 3+ years but IT IS and has been getting
increasingly more frustrating being able to get ones opinion across without being censored..

NO
Moving on to my final point...

..Until things improve i no longer want to contribute, i may be back, may not...call it semi-retirement!
Its been brought to my attention that one of the main "issues" that i mentioned in my PM to Skateguy & Admin with this forum
has now been addressed so at this point im happy to return.....for now!
thanks
