I have to say this Justin, please dont take this the wrong way, but I think you could have handled the situation alot better. I know you were upset with the drama but I think we really needed to talk things out instead of getting mad and making a big deal out of the whole thing. We are all adults here, we can put our minds together and come up with a solution to any problem thrown at us on this forum. I think the stress of life has gotten to everyone here and the drama in the forum lately is a direct result and it just kinda snowballed from there. We are trying to get rid of the drama on this forum, get it back to the way things used to be. Remeber, there are only 5 moderators on this site and we could use the help of any member willing to lend a hand. This is to everyone, not just you Justin. If you see something that offends or upsets you or there is any question as to whether something is inappropriate on the site, PLEASE bring it to our attention and let us know how you feel. We can all work together to make things right. Its hard as a moderator to find a solution to a problem when we dont know peoples views on a certain subject. For a while Justin, I thought you were leaving MCF to spend more time with your family and focus on what is more important in life. I had no idea that the goings on in the forum were upsetting you as much as they were. I would have been MORE than happy to work towards a solution had I know exactly how you felt. Im sure if I could have gone back and read every post in the daily blogs, I could have gotten an understanding, but I and I know the other moderators as well have more than just the forum to deal with. We have to worry about work and family and other things as well as MCF so sometimes its difficult to get a grasp on exaclty what is going on in the forum. We are finally getting a handle on the views of the members on this forum about the direction MCF was taking. The banning of robyn was our first step to getting the forum back on track, but certainly it isnt the last. We are trying to make things right here and hopefully we can all get past the problems we were having and get the forum back into that family atmosphere we are striving for. I hope you know that and I am glad you are back and JJ is back and hopefully more members will find their way back to MCF that had left. If anyone has any questions, concerns, problems or you just want to vent, PLEASE feel free to PM me or another moderator and we will be glad to help out any way we can. That goes to any member.

The hardest part about getting a meet together is the fact that everyone is so spread out on the forum. Its hard to get a general meet together because with the economy, its tough to get people to spend the money on gas to drive a long distance to meet up. We end up having to do small area meets, which limits the amount of people who can attend. Thats not a BIG problem if you plan in advance, give everyone time to work their schedule around the meet. Its not bad if only a few people show up though, its still a meet nonetheless. Im still trying to get people together from the pittsburgh area, and anyone else who wants to attend, this summer for either our car club's show or super cruise. Ill be sure to post the date in the events section as soon as I get them. Hopefully a few people can attend.

I'm glad to welcome people back. I'm glad you've come back.

We know how people feel about the situation, and we know what needs to happen.

This topic needs to end NOW!

Nothing personal against anyone, but I'm closing this thread.

I'm asking people to please move on from this topic. Duane was right. Continuing to open the wounds isn't helping.

Thank you.
