A few months ago, I was stripped of all administrative rights that I possessed. This was done when I was offline, and when I logged in I had nothing, and no warning or discussion had commenced. I proceeded to resign from the forum, my reasons being that I was a co-administrator and co-owner since the very beginning, and I have cared for this forum with as much effort and time as the other co-admin, Alien Mind. Several days ago I was granted full administrative powers by him, and he has resigned as the co-administrator of this forum. I am surprised and pleased by this reaction, and I want to say that not only was that a smart decision, but it took guts and did not appear to me as any act of weakness.
I have decided, as sole administrator to move the forum so to speak. The empty topics and member less posts are a mark of the past problems we have had, and I do not want to continue on with those reminders here. Instead I have created another forum, one which is brand new and somewhat familiar to us. It has the same board structures, with a modification here and there, and as a warning to any who join it, I will ensure that Online Debate follows the Proboards TOS and does not deviate from the contract I agreed to when I received the forum.
This forum will not be deleted however. It contains our affiliates, and the entire archive of our discussions. I will leave it open for archiving purposes only. If you wish to import an interesting topic, you may by copying your post and if you wish to quote something that you want to address please feel free. I will post the board locations, and you will be able to access them through this post.
Philosophical Discussion
Societal Discussion
Spiritual Discussion
Global Affairs
Political Discussion
Science
Psychology
Speculations
I want to thank the moderation team for their efforts, you guys did a good job. I have taken staff positions into close consideration, and until I decide what the best structure would be there will be no staff besides me. You may hate me for it, but I assure you that trust is hard to give when it has already been trampled. Please be patient, as I am revamping the entire structure, due to its failure to work here.
May you all see this as a learning experience, one which does not have "Religious" or "Political" groups, but one where we as a community can rise through the ashes of this situation, and continue on.
