Bigg!'s blog post - Having watched chat going downhill

Friday, May 30, 2008, 2:12:10 AM
over recent weeks, and seen the members room populated by people using bullying and intimidating tactics to engineer political and racist arguments, I was stunned at the action of a mod tonight. Rather than warn or remove the person causing trouble, we were warned that the 'next one will be removed'. Earlier, someone else who responded to a rude and agressive statement was also warned,but not the aggressor making the original inflammatory statement. Is it any wonder that long standing members are seen less and less in chat? Over the last 2 weeks, 5 members on my 'friends list' have deleted their accounts, and at this time, I'm not at all sure that I will renew my premium membership. It's very disheartening.

It's spreading... the forums have calmed down, so the trouble is back to chat.

And just as I've been in chat more, too.

*sigh*
