//Rant on to all folks that fit it....

I'm tired of people making assumptions and jumping to conclusions and trying to mislead people about Mr. Lester and BrainTalk. Some of the stuff said here at Braintalk2 could be construed as libel.

None of you (nor I for that matter) have any proof of any wrong doing, with the exception of his lack of communication and participation. I find this (lack of communication) very disturbing, highly offensive, quite rude, and definately not at all like the Mr. Lester I thought I knew.

So how about you find (and post) some facts before making statements that may or may not be true? Or at the very least take the easy way out and say it's your opinion. That way people won't think what you say is fact.

//Rant off

As for the comments regarding the moderators....I have not had to deal with any of them so I can't say anything about them other than this....

Being a moderator of a community with 50K+ members is not an easy job. Especially when the community deals with health issues. While actions the moderators take may seem uncalled for, they are more often than not justified. Being members at BrainTalk in particular, we will not be privy (most of the time) to the why's of the moderators actions.

lol everything I say is my opinion ZS.

I do think JL has sufficiently been removed from his pedestal and it's time to put that puppy to rest.

i wonder how many funerals it will take?

speaking of puppies....i didn't know you had a boxer? my grandpuppy is a boxer. this is his 1 yr old picture taken a few weeks ago.


i agree with you zs. i think enough has been said in all the old posts. time to let bt1 go from this board. IF it does come back...good luck to it and it's members. i'm sorry you had such posts to come back to after not feeling well. but there are some good funny ones scattered around. and many many helpful supportive ones.

I love your dog and your photography!!!!!!!!!!!!

That is such a good picture I wondered for awhile if it was an illustration in a book, or for some ... I don't know... some web site or something.

Well, time to go make more coffee.

ie moving on rather than talking about that old forum.

there is quite enough hurt going round by everything related to BT crashing and the silence etc etc etc.
let's not perpetuate the hurt here!

Supersized!!

Is there some reason that every thread on this forum here has postings about cookies, dogs, or other totally unrelated things. It seems pretty rude to keep injecting these non-sequitors. How about starting a cookie and dog thread so those who are interested can stick to the subject of the thread. Several pages of cookie stuff is annoying to have to wade through.

ZS,

I totally agree with you.

It seems childish and ridiculous to jump all over someone who has done so much for BT for many years.

How DARE the man have a private life, go on vacation, and not respond to emails when the senders demand????? And.... he was seen going into a restaurant? How dare he do that when if he got carryout he could keep working on our forum.

The fact that he doesn't get paid should have nothing to do with his OBLIGATIONS to us. He OWES us.

If I were him and saw this forum, I would just say to hell with the whole thing and drop BT forever.

If this forum is going to be anything other than a bash BT forum, then perhaps BT one should be dropped from being the main topic of discussion around here.

As to the moderators, like everyone else, I don't always agree with what they say, but on the occasions I have seen them ban people, it was for violating the TOS. Anyone who doesn't like the TOS can choose to follow them or go somewhere else.

The TOS are posted and you have to agree to follow them to join. People seem to think that once they have agreed to follow them and don't, that somehow they are entitled not to be required to follow them.

Yeah, I would have liked the notice updated more often and the forum not down for so long, but that is different than making up unsubstantiated allegations about people's motives and actions.
