but i cant take it anymore i now know how kipax felt when he packed it in
i have really enjoyed it on here and have made a lot of friends but there are a few that just push things to far and this has happend once to often for me.
I have been sworn at, threatened with violence threatened to be sued and a lot of other things.
I have tried to help members and they just give sarcastic comments and try to stir things on site
and i can do without it and i am tired of it we used to have fun but cant do that these days .

I will stay until Roy gets back then have a word i will not leave him short of staff
But i really have had enough.
As a relative newcomer to the site I have put my foot in it on more than one occasion, and been quickly brought to book for it. I heartily respect that we all have different opinions on a variety of subjects, but when it gets personal, it can hurt. Stick with it, Mick, as by far the majority of subscribers clearly respect you for all that you have done in maintaining the site, much to the betterment of all reasonable thinking people who take part.

accyweb has had good and bad times, Mick has always been here for the rest of us.





Keep Mick, stop giving him hassle, and enjoy accyweb, you know it makes sense.
think that sums things very well,failing that happening i suggest BOOT EM into touch period.

Re: Had Enough

Neil, while you are right about Mick being the one to decide whether to stay or go, those of us who have asked Mick to re-think are doing so because he is a good and fair moderator......and Mick needs to be told how much we value his work on the forum......all too often the work that is done behind the scenes gets no recognition.

Mick is worth a lot to this site......someone said in a previous post that Mick is the face of Accyweb.....and I believe that to be true.

Re: Had Enough

I agree wholeheartedly with Margaret and others.

Mick says he's been abused and insulted, even physically threatened, and I believe him. There comes a point where real unpleasantness gets under the thickest of skins.

I hope, Mick, that the testimony of many of us that you're a nice guy and a very good Mod, makes up a little for the abuse. You don't have to put up with that sort of thing from bullies who hide behind a keyboard. Throw your weight about, too, for a change; ban them.

Mick, if you decide to "hand in your notice", who would keep the rowdies on the straight and narrow in the Railway at lunchtimes, also, if i turn up in Accy unannounced and my daughter is not at home, i know i can come down to the Railway and find her in there being looked after by all of you "elders" of Accyweb.

Excuse me?

He may be threatening to hang up his keyboard but, he can't possibly stop the research, nobody in the Railway does anything except abuse his liver!

Re: Had Enough

Just think if Mick does decide to call it a day he could spend more time moderating in the Railway.
