Well, I'm sure that if Alex does not get some moderators and/or give back capabilities to those moderators who are sticking around that WP will not last much longer. Honestly, but this place can't be run without experienced moderators and people who are willing to dedicate their time and energy to WP and the AS community as a whole at the expense of loosing their personal sanity and getting flamed. :evil:

Maybe because he agreed that 'getting banned from WP shows strength of character'? So would that mean that not getting banned shows weakness of character? There have been so many negative comments on another site, about 3-4 threads worth, it's really hard to say. I've seen posts something like 'look at what I posted on WP, think I'll get banned?' Just asking for it or so it seems.

Just a thought, but I really don't know.

I do know that I support WrongPlanet. That's all.

Hmm, I belong to other sites as well as this one, but that doesn't mean I'll give up on this one. I believe the same goes for a lot of other people, banned or not.

I belong to other sites as well. Just answering your question, in my opinion only.

No one really knows why anyone is banned anymore, even those people who were banned, oddly enough. And I don't think anyone knows who is next in line to be banned, either. :evil:

I'm also on other sites as well. Board drama is a common occurrence, where people have left either through banning or on their own. On extremely rare occasions is a ban permanent, most of the time, people are suspended temporarily, like for a month until the drama cools down. In those cases, if the previously suspended person becomes an a**h*** again, the ban is permanent.

On the serious side, I'd be devistated if this site was to shut down. I rely on Wrong Planet to get me through my day. I spend an Hour and a Half here, in the Morning and two Hours here in the Evening. This is where I can be myself, joke around and talk about my troubles and still be understood.

I'll apologize to you, Laz.

I am truly, truly sorry. In fact, most forlorn and grieved at the way I have treated you.

Will you ever forgive me? I am begging.

There was a topic of Alex's saying his email had been spoofed. Could this be connected? I somehow think it is.
