I locked it because I said it's not open for discussion.

I'm trying to make this a better place for people to visit and all I get from you lot is fucking criticism. A bunch of noobs turn up and say it's all shit and why not do this, that and the other and don't actually realise how bloody hard it is to make changes to a website.

I'd love to have this place perfectly tailored to suit all our needs but it's never gonna happen and you just can't please everyone.

It's a known fact that people don't accept change very well even if the change will be beneficial. How many times have you had a change at work and thought "oh no, this is gonna be crap" and it turns out alright.

It's not a big deal that the classifieds have been changed so why don't people just get used to it. If we don't moderate enough then we end up with a forum which is a total mess and if we try and moderate to a higher degree then we get accused of being heavy handed and I'm sick of it.

Just put up with the changes and if you don't like them it's tough, just accept it and put it down to personal opinions differing. At the end of the day, someone around here has to stop pussyfootting around and make some firm decisions and that person is me.

Now I'm closing this thread too because it will turn into a continuation of the previous thread, any problems with this then PM me.
