announcement has been made in plumbing forum and the arms

System3 is no longer a moderator or member of the forum due to personal differences
 
Can you elaborate further? Or is it a private matter?

Such a shame :/
 
a good choir is only good if everyone is singing from the same hymn sheet - my opinion not of any other mods/admin
 
Im a little gutted ! Dont know why ! Well infact i do. Its strange coming on here you speak to people get involved with the banter and talks and you feel like you know that person. You could sit in the pub and talk all day or of you where stuck on a job message one of the lads locally ! When really you dont know that person !

For example keefy im hos friend on here but wouldnt meet up or want to be seen dead with that scouser !

Sorry to hear system has left ! He was a top asset to the forum ! Always helped where he could ! Like other mods i shall add.
 
Is there a specific thread to announce this? Because I can't find it :-(

what actually happened with him them? Did he just disagree with something and get chucked off?
 
Its at the very top ! Before the threads actually starts ! Above the stickys
 
At top you closed 3 threads and kept us waiting for that small statement why couldnt of just said it 2 hrs ago or expand on it
 
there were many things tom , most of which were not seen out of the mod/admin section like i tried to explain to him there are two sides to every stroy

Correct ! I think its very silly ! After all they where in the arms AND the 'Speculation' was correct !

the decision was not taking lightly , believe me and its not just one incident . WE had to wait untill all the admin/mod team had read through some stuff first
 
Just explain what the ban is for and stop all the stories floating round then, its in the arms to stop public view other wise it will keep going in various threads
 
It's unfortunate but a decision had to be made and carried through. I'm sure you'll hear plenty of speculation over the next few days but soon enough we'll all put this behind us and carry on.

It wouldn't be fair to Colin as you'd only be getting the one side. Needless to say it wasn't a decision that was taken lightly.
 
So was he pushed or did he jump. The announcement 'infers' he jumped.
 
So is the basic jist of it, if you disagree with the people in charge then you get your account deleted?
 
do you honestly believe that ?

No not really, but it does look a bit odd that two moderators have left because of "artistic differences"

im not here to make arguments or fall out with people or for any of that "he said, she said" nonsense, but it just seems strange to me.

Sometimes ignorance is bliss & the less we know the better. With no disrespect to anyone directly involved we all have enough of our own stuff going on.
 
well ill tell you this , like the arms theres a mod section with restricted access and even i dont know to this day why puddle is no longer here. having known puddle a bit i don't believe he and colin have been removed for the reasons. if that makes sense

Two ? If you are referring to puddle then as far as I am aware he left with out any reason being given....oh and before my time too.
As for Colin, The running of the forum by the mods and admin is like a business ...but without a pay cheque ! If there is friction in the office or on site all the time then tension builds up. Thats no good for anyone. I have always asked the mods to work as a team but sadly this clearly wasnt happening. I can only speculate now what would have happened if Colin had not been removed...maybe we would be asking were other had gone !
All I ask is that we all work together and as has been said already , "it wasnt a decision taken lightly" hence the time it has taken to get to this point.

Well to be honest Mr D, if the announcement had contained what you have said here then I would have thought about it differently.
 
Isnt everything built off the back of a discussion though? Sometimes its good to have a different set of views and opinions thrown in the mix otherwise it just becomes a dictatorship.
 
Well ive spoke to colin and have heard his side am i allowed to paste it in here or os that gonna get me in trouble ?
 
The decision has been made and personally I don't wanna read what he's said I can see it all in the global heating on face book, unfortunately he started the post and has barred me so I can't reply.
Which says it all for me

I don't see the need. We don't need bad feeling and negative vibes.

I already think theres a vibe ! The lads want to know whats gone on ! To nearly everyone its a shock and cane from out of the blue

and now that people dont want it talked about and mods seem to be shushing it ! Well closing threads etc before hand just seems odd ? If all this has happend in past where you guys waiting for us to say oh wheres system3 ?
 
I would like to know, Colin is obviously a very knowledgeable guy and was very helpful in the forum, it is just a forum to discuss and be open.

I dont see the need. If you are ok with Colins words then thats fine but repeating them here is only going to cause a fuss. Surely there are plumbing matters that need hearing rather than tell taleing.
If anyone feels the need to know then I suggest they contact Colin direct, I would rather the mods and everyone else keep this civil. I have explained this has come about and its already starting to eat into my time.

But colins words aside how long was it gonna be before we were told ? Like i said just waiting for us all to ask ? Closed 3 threads for specualating just a) looks a bit guilty of somthing and b) is bull**** ! If we took all the specualtion out of this forum half the threads in the arms wouldnt exist ! For example i bet you hes an engineer ? ?
 
Personally any issues I had with Colin were between me and him. out of respect for the guy not being able to answer now I won't be airing those issues!

Rest assured though that there will be no changes in the way the UKPF is run, there's no secret police, spetnatz, reds in the bed or anything else that concerns you. No one needs to watch their backs.
