Time to go it is :)

Lately there seems to be a anti-me feeling in the forum, and one moderator thinks im acting like a moderator, god knows why they think that but thats his opinion.

Ive been around here for a long time (as you can see from the date to the left), I have tried to help people, I have tried to help keep undiserables out (not as a mod of course or act like one) as in trying to do what any other person would do and thats help protect a place where people enjoy coming to, and if that somehow makes me an acting mod as per say then that just proves a point im making.

And of course try to help people make their own trainers, nice to see some people benefit, shame it wasnt a bigger success than I hoped, but it did good which as it was intended.

I come here to enjoy the forum, the members, the atmosphere, the laughs, the highs and the lows. And I always enjoyed a good catch the naughty people out, which I have done for some years now, but only recently this seems to be unacceptable (some of my posts mysteriously venturing into the twilight zone) funny that other people who do the exact same as me seem to be ok, funny aint it. And one person who did the same as me for the same amount of time (and perhaps even longer) is now a Moderator. Even funnier. But that person is a great guy and he deserves it, long may the reign run.

So now its become a chore so to speak to just come on and read things, and over the last few months things have gotten lax as im sure Empire would agree partly with. And a couple of moderators cant even distinguish what people are actually writing/posting or what they intended to talk about. For example, someone being derogatory to people from Pakistan, now I dont know how all people feel about that, but seeing something like that in a forum not only would annoy people of said country, but other users too. Strange it wasnt really dealt with.

Then only after that I made a fact about Germans, there was no racism involved, but of course the point that some people dont read what has been said fully is an example here, I was labelled racists by some and a moderator closed the thread and I was made to look the aggressor.

Its not only that instance that has made me decide to leave here there is many others.

Anyways wish the regulars well, and ill hang about for a couple of days to read the farewell's and of course no doubt some moans from people who have nothing better to do with their times, and hope the regulars have a good time and that some things can be changed to improve the forums reputation a bit (there is a bit of talk that it has become less and less helpfull - some people seeking help and following the rules are now greeted with "check the FAQ", they had the nice thought to write out a message they should have the similar respect and have a decent answer.)

So on that note, I shall say cheerio! and wish you well. (funny this all started essentially over my disagreement over a country's copyright law in a way).

Oh and ill leave the tuts as is for learning to train games, perhaps others will learn and become good trainer makers in the future
