I would suspect this debate has shifted up a gear over the last few days only now that we finally have more information about VRCT. Maybe this is why VRCT promoters are suprised and in some cases offended by this sudden reaction. It was in no way a personal attack on anyone or group and i see no validity in the racial accusations made.
I think a lot of good has come out of this debate because there are many of us who were/are ill informed and i would guess many of those have joined VRCT (just in case) without hearing both sides of the coin. At least now many can make a more informed choice and that any individual will realise they are not alone in their opinion for or against Regulation. I personally crave as much information as possible because although i am against Regulation and VRCT (for reasons i have outlined), it still has the potential to affect me. So keep it coming!

Maybe as EBME techs we should adopt the Yin Yang symbol as our logo?

Yes, the Force is indeed strong with Lucy (not to mention Huw)!

That's a good idea, Mate. It's as good a symbol as any, I reckon. smile

That's all very well, Huw (I suppose), but now I see that all Richards' earlier posts are tagged:-

Mr R J Ling
Unregistered

... or even:-

Anonymous
Unregistered

And replies (from other posters) are tagged:- [Re: ]

As my good old jousting partner was so prolific a poster himself, I'm wondering if you can arrange things somewhat differently? This makes some threads look a bit ridiculous, unless you have the time to work it all out (ie, who is replying to who). Also we cannot review Richard's posts, as you can for other posters.

May I suggest that deletion of membership should not be permitted! If one of the gang simply wishes to stop coming on to the forum, and stop posting, then that's up to them!

Are you decided on this issue (or should we have a poll about it)? smile

I'm afraid what's done is done.
Membership is deleted the posts remain. That's the way it works.

I've not been asked to delete a membership before, but I saw no reason why I shouldn't. He asked, I said ok. No big deal.

I'm surprised there are anonymous posts - that should'nt have happened.

Speaking personally I am uncomfortable with the fact Richard has seen fit withdraw from the website. Taking part in a debate the result of which is someone withdrawing like this reflects on everyone taking part in it, not just Richard. It raises for me the question, of what quality was the debate in the first place?

In my opinion the site will be the poorer without his input, so I think he should be at least be invited to reconsider his decision.

Best wishes

Paul
