    Well, you obviously can't count the 2 points you gave to yourself (from wellydeckhand to mayfly). The other 3 points were given with 1 vote on this post: http://boatdesign.net/forums/showthread.php?postid=83393#post83393

    Again, I know I said this when you said you were leaving for good two weeks ago, but again, farewell Trouty. Thank you for the on-topic posts over the years, and may you find a forum that better fits your views. Since you have done your best to drive other members away from the forum including blatent insults and namecalling, I suppose it is only fitting that your ship has now sailed.

    Is this for real? Most fourms I've ever been too don't take too kindly to having multiple profiles, and I don't think it's cool myself. What are you trying to prove? We get it, people are biased. Well I hope your proud of proving nothing we didnt already know.

    Dont worry I dont like doing Split personality, it destroy my scheduled eating session by the PC and does make me too professional. I will now only stick to wellydeckhand.

    Jeff is kind to let me by on this case of mutiple personality in one forum. It better to have many same personality in various different forum....... more heathly and sane.

    Wellysanenow.

    P.S. It is so painful to destroy the 2 character I have developed........... It is almost apart of myself. Do understand I suffer in the end also.:(

    The problem is, before the reputation system, nothing happened until things reached a boiling point. Most people don't want to confront another member when they feel they are "slightly over the line" so nothing is said until things are way over the line. Or we simply lose members who have a lot of valuable information because it is not worth the hassle and time to either:
    1.) try to read through bickering, off-topic, insulting, or non-substantitive junk posts, or
    2.) spend their time confronting other posters

    Why are you defending yourself Jeff? I,personally don't think you need to. Its your site, do what you want. You gave us your reasons and it should be good enough. If any of us dont like it we can leave. I'm going to stay, this site is a great resource! How did it seem to get so petty...

    yup, I think people should respect one another and more for the resources and time had been taken to make this forum possible. It would be a shame if we lose this paradise of neutrality to some thead and individual or groupy wills.

    Well, many of the points raised do have validity and I'm happy to get the input even though I do believe the benefits do outweigh the drawbacks at the current time. I sincerely thank everyone for their thoughts on both sides of the issue.

    Actually, I'm grateful that the trial has been "prolonged". If it were only a fortnight, it would have been "for good". At least this way we get to at least give some input before it is "for real".

    Even if that means a fortnight more of purgatory.

    I wont comment on the other things you say, but I will say this, that there were enough people bitching (excuse me), that Jeff had to take some sort of action. I don't agree with the choice of action, but, well - then it's my turn to ***** to counter the first.

    I know, this is a bit pedantic, but since very few is attacking him, he isn't defending himself. We are having a difference of opinions. A discussion. And it means a lot to me, and I am sure others, that he is willing to do so. We are all aware that it is his place, but if he merely shut up and ignored us then that wouldn't make a good host, so to speak.

    I'll say it again, I'm grateful that Jeff is taking this discussion in stride.
