I didn't see anything bad that should close a funny thread, but we wonder why people are leaving or not posting as much. Talk about grumpy.

Ya the spamer was dismissed from the forum, as far as the thread itself its in an appropriate forum. I'm not the one to decide the best use of someone else's time as long as the rules are followed.Quote:

Being publicly attacked by other mods is more than I can take.
I have submitted my resignation, but will continue to enjoy OOD and try to contribute positively.
Yes I closed this thread(or tried to) so it doesn't turn into an attack on mods.
