I wasn't aware it had been moved. I was about to request it be moved to the main forum as it has nothing to do with clone discussions. This is about Junior's EULA, which just happens to mention the robbo family.
This seems to be the typical knee-jerk reaction when someone sees the string "robo" or "ipp"...
Well you can always blame me again, but unfortunately I was sleeping.

I blame "the moderators" since only they can perform this action. Place has turned into a lousy place to discuss anything of substance, however. Hopefully it will be fixed in a few months...

Blaming is all well and good, but 2 of the 3 CCC mods have no idea what happened here and we're trying to piece it together. I agree with you that moving posts around sucks, so please accept my apologies on behalf of whoever did this, and hopefully we'll get it worked out. In the meantime, we've replaced the thread to its correct location, and no one got hurt.

Irrespectible of the origins of Ippolot & CO, this just blows my mind....
And most likely it is not enforceable either...
Not only that, but disgraceful to say the least. What audacity! You have to be kidding me. I thought WWII was over...

You are a do nothing mod. Others are not. That's just life.

Cheers,

Yes, but at least you left shadow of the original so that people know what happened. I wish all moves were done this way-- it's a lot clearer and would avoid a great deal of "what happened" type posts.

before everyone gets all worked up, its completely possible amir & shay will gladly give consent, & they just enjoy receiving letters & haven't been getting many lately.

There's a lesson to be learned there, if you just think about it for a bit. Being "heavy-handed" does _not_ equate to "being a good moderator".

Correct. Just the same as doing nothing does not equate to being a good moderator.

You're both right,the truth is somewhere between by the way....
Even more frustrating is locking a certain thread while there is a personal attack included and the user,me, n this example,can't answer or even complain to the moderators because the damn thread is locked....
If you mind to react Graham,just notify me....
