All the best Archie, in what ever you decide to do. The best mod on here by a country mile, others should learn from you and follow your example. Good Luck enjoy your retirement.

probably mistaken..... but looking at the colour codes on another site it looked like you are a moderator on a very 'similar' site

I think all the mods do a good and tireless job, from my own experience of moderation its a job that cant please all the people all of the time and lets not forget it a job that is 'unpaid' so as well as actually coming on the site to enjoy it these moderators have to deal with the other issues whilst again trying to do the same as the regular members which is read and talk pigeons.

I agree Vallance, but the one topic that is dominating the site is the "For's and against's" couriers, and IS the one dominant thing that is causing most of the arguments. Just my observations of the past 3 months. Apologies for deviating off topic, just my response to your point about what we are all here for, to talk PIGEONS not who the best or worst courier is, or more to the point who thinks they are the best.

Just wish ARCHIE would come on and let us know the reason for leaving I for one had a few disagreaments with him but at least he was man enough to try and explain his reasons for whatever he did not like some on here, any answer is better than being ignored and thats what ARCHIE normaly did gave his view on why he did it. GOOD LUCK ARCHIE

i had a couple of posts pulled by him and when i pm ed him he explained and was nice and friendly, one or two mods i can name could do with taking a leaf out of fifers book and stop trying to rule with an iron fist

Just to start with I would like to thank all for their posts very much appreciated, I think the above quote sums up the position of mods, Now I and I alone decided to come off the Admin/Mods, and it has nothing to do with the Webmaster or my Fellow Mods, I just feel that the past few weeks have just been more Hassle on site than what it was intended for, which is talking Pigeons or any other acceptable topic, and lets face it, its all here, Notice Board, Fancy Pigeons, Chit Chat, New Members, etc etc, there is a board for all, to sum up, A Great site, and as for the Webmaster I have always found him to be fair in dealing with every matter, I dont always agree with him when he puts back a post I or another Mod moves, But we accept it, as he is the WEBMASTER and keeps the site on top, but he has another life, and thats why mods try to keep the site going as it should while he is off, but as said I think the above sums the mods part up, the last part on mods is if you think a mod has done something you dont agree with by all means Pm the webmaster and he will deal with it , dont put up posts which just turns into arguments and gets moved ,(and yes the mods get telling off so to speak by weby as well ) what we need is more support just now for the site and Webmaster, and once more thank you all, and its a interesting thread so please dont turn it into anything else, thanks I look forward to joining in with your pigeon and chit chat postings, Many thanks.
