I don't post here because I want to keep a neutral position on anything going here so that when I do have to take moderator actions I can't be blamed to be moderating to backup my viewpoint. However, I will post here on subjects such at this that involve members. I agree with others that the forum is markedly quieter with Porcia83 and Chris P. Bacon not here now. Both of those members were given ample chances to correct their actions before they were banned, yet they choose to continue with their actions and that resulted in them being banned. When members as dynamic as Porcia and Chris P. get banned I start watching the forums for them to return under a new username. So far I haven't seen them return. To be honest I am totally shocked that at least Porcia hasn't tried to come back considering all the waves he would create in this forum. One thing I do have in my favor is that when members such as Porcia and Chris P. try to come back into the forums a lot of times it will be the members that actually spot their return and then notify me they are back. Considering how active those two were in this forum I doubt either one of them could return with a new username and then simply lay silent and not post. I guess since they have returned over on Flying Giants they make a return here. However, neither one will be granted renewed access to RCU and if they are discovered they will be banned again.
I know that they caused huge waves here in the forums and that the forums were more active when they were here. However, that will not be enough to get them back into RCU. They have both burned their bridges here and will not be allowed back. Even if it meant that there were no more posts here in the AMA Forum they will still stay banned.
