This is very sad, what I mean is that it is sad to lose Knuckles. I understand why MB did what he did. After the ban, what preceeded should have stopped. Instead Knuckles decided he would make a point of it in his diary. The diary is his, but to continue bringing an issue up that should of otherwise been dealt with was silly, and could only lead to more animosity. Animosity is something none of us want.
It is nice to see people defending him, its nice to see support for a fellow member. Those however who continue to dance and make joy of his departure are in my opinion pretty low. It's so easy to point the finger and gloat, but it's much better to try and understand.
Knuckles had many friends and supporters here whom I feel encouraged his posts. Knuckles aint the only one to blame here. Those who took issue with him, should pretty much most of the time shut up. It's so much easier to make a post, and if others don't agree, then there is no need to continue posting and posting and posting. Make your point and leave it. Unfortunatly Knuckles and others seem to be unable to do this.
I'm sad that Knuckles has been banned, I would have liked to have seen an extended period of absence and a discussion on the issue that Knuckles could have read. Maybe a thread that he could have seen and taken some note from some of the great members here. I'm pretty sure he would have taken note from people, but I try to have as much faith in people as I can.
But anyway, I'll end my post simply by saying, unless your in Kuckles position, or MB's position, I simply would'nt bother trying to point the finger. It's far too easy, and generally is wrong.
