Thanks for not calling me a Nazi like a few others have. I like Godfather much better.

As others have said, if you don't like the forum just don't visit. I will disable your login and remove you from the Members List if that's what you want but all that will do is prevent you from logging in and posting in the future if you find that you want to chime in on a topic. Since you post so much I would think you'd want to leave that option open.

However, I won't delete your entire membership. That would mean deleting all 1183 posts you made over a 4 year period. Those posts are parts of conversations, many people responded to them and some of them were thread starters. To remove all those posts would disrupt countless threads. When you post on an Internet forum you should assume that your posts will remain for the benefit of other forum visitors.

I have never marketed the advertising on this site in any way and I certainly have never used your username as a selling point. The advertisers contact me because they want exposure to thousands of Lakes Region visitors and residents. I doubt most of them even know how many members we have and that number has never, ever come up when new advertisers contact me. The number of members is not that significant anyway since guests usually outnumber members on the site by 10-1 at any given time.

You've posted 17 times since May 1st including your last post at 7:34 last night. You posted on May 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 10, 12 and 13. If you really want out why do you post almost daily?

The only discussion I've ever put a lid on was the Speed Limit topic, and that was after many months and thousands of posts. I've received some criticism for that decision but I did what I thought was best for this forum after much deliberation.

I'm sorry to see anyone leave the forum but people come and go all the time. I do appreciate all the contributions you've made since joining in 2006.
