Ginger, I have to both agree & disagree.
I agree, there is a difference between Mel's decision and the one made here; but ultimately the result is the same. I'm not going to get into a fight here about why it was done, I was sleeping in a tent w/o electricity much less Internet when it occurred.
The current conflict was re-raised by people that don't post here, about something that the majority of the membership here has moved past or never knew about.
I don't know of ANY site, CF or otherwise, where a thread openly attacking the site, it's premise, it's ownership and it's purpose would be allowed. Thus if the members of cf2 (and I have been one since last summer) feel the discussion is worthwhile and beneficial, then that is the logical place for it to occur.
I go to both sites, and will continue as long as I am welcome; but I can't think of an instance in real-life where a business owner would tolerate personal insults in their own business so I can't defend the opinion that the thread as it currently stands belongs here.
