Sorry Nick, My point would be that such threads die quickly enough anyway, once everybody affected has had a chance to let go of some steam. People lost money, and I can not look into their wallets. I can understand some folks here get upset over Ray’s latest offer and some of them gave good and useful advice. Not to mention the entertaining remarks about drives containing pending orders got zapped and the drives containing design files were saved. Sure I’m harsh, but I can’t help being allergic to moderation. The yahoo days make no difference. Cheers, Frank

Even in the Yahoo! days, outright commercial threads were closed/not encouraged and personal attacks and venting of gripes, however valid, were also curtailed (and sometimes deleted). In the few years I've been a mod, I've closed a couple of threads (out of nearly 1300) and encouraged commercial, rather than private, vendors to consider a more appropriate forum - the previous thread I closed related to personal comments as well (as you will remember). Enough has been said on the Ray issue - this is a technical forum, so emphatically not a place to settle scores. The point has been made.
