I understand that it creates a fuss when two members suddenly decides to leave the site, but all this speculation isn't going to help. The reason for why they left have been given, and they both left of their own free will.

Seb left because he didn't want to follow the rules set by the admins of this site, and decided to leave completely - instead of just giving up his Mod posistion and continue with being an updater and a member.

What was the rule he didn't want to follow?
That posting smiley only posts are considered mild spam.
He didn't want to agree to that, so he deleted every single game on his computer that he had planned to upload to the site, and literally ditched the site and his fellow updaters.

Some might say that this was a spitefull move from his side...

Tiki left simply because Seb left.
And just like Seb, he gave no warning of this beforehand. He simply left. So another updater just ditching the rest of the updating crew.

Something I personally find highly unprofessional.


I have a huge respect for the work they have done, but not for the way they left.



And ranting about them leaving - and what have we done to keep them? - and why did they leave? - and why didn't we stop them? - and why did they lea.... isn't going to change the fact that they left. And what could we do to stop or keep them? They left in the blink of an eye.

Listening to all this reminds me of being in a college class, and having a couple people whine and rant in the middle of class about two of their friends dropping the course. It doesn't do the rest of the class anything good, and it makes it 100 times more difficult to concentrate about the work needing to be done.

If this topic is so fascinating, then please take the debate outside the classroom. There are people here that need to work, and who need to move on.


It's closing time.
