It was only a suggestion. Over my few months here I've changed my view of SD. I hope I'm allowed to? I used to be a fan, now I think it's toxic. I wanted to register my views here.
I'm not getting territorial or controlling, Brillo, don't be silly. How could I? I'm just an ordinary member like you.
Why you didn't tell me earlier I was easy-going and pleasant?
Anyway, I said my bit and leave it at that. Attacks of trolling and heat stroke already started so there's no point in further debate.
Btw, Kirk, thank you for your non-judgmental reply.

As Cherie says; 'Put it on ignore' and stay off there if you dislike it so much.
I’ve never understood this ‘get rid of this, that or the other forum mentality. There are lots of forums on here I never go in but I’m not suggesting they are removed because they don’t interest me. It’s ridiculous - there is other motivation at play here in my opinion.

SD won't be getting deleted tbh. Off season its probably the busiest subforum. However, I do still disagree with the merge.

Do you think it shows collusion of our Admin with Chat and Games?

Au contraire, love debating different opinions. But when you start posting superfluous images to inflame a thread or dont provide links where it does not suit you, I draw a line. Simple as.

If it's so liked then there's nothing to be afraid of, Brillo.

Best thing to do is just keep the forum how it is..

N just use the todays new posts link at the top, that way you dont really look at what forum you are going to.

Just pick the right forum for your thread topic, if making one!

It can be, but to be totally honest, there are threads in the BB sections during most seasons that are much, MUCH worse than anything I've ever seen in SD. Some seriously nasty stuff that goes way beyond simple ignorance or difference of opinion
