It seems my post over there in the thread announcing the unorthodox election was not taken very well. 

The post that got the thread removed;

I need to set the record straight here.
I will most likely be taking that one way trip to the moon StuDaBaka.

The completely unorthodox fashion of the bi-annual elections this year, along with their ironic knack for bad timing came a strange unprecedented mutiny.

A mutiny to disarm administration through the power of vote givin by Admin, although easily taken care of in just a few minutes if I was crazy enough, tells me something completely different then what I had originally thought of some staff.

Yes Randy Black and I legally owned the board and the registered trademark, but we’ve always worked with a government sorta speak which consisted of the moderators and the other prostaff, allowing them to dictate through voting what took place….within reason.

My position was not up for election, nor was it even nominated on when I declined to have any part of what I was seeing unfold. I am simply leaving because I am completely opposed to what I am seeing back there.

I have given my word I would hang around to teach some of the ins and outs of the controls and inner workings and then…
I will be, instead of arguing, or turning the lights completely off… on my own behalf, and my own free will…be leaving the website in attempt to not be affiliated with anything that takes place from this point on, due to me completely disagreeing with the new positions and the agenda.

Nobody could ask for a better membership then what you guys have shown to be. I appreciate the support.

Any tannery clientele that I may have accumulated during my time over there knows where to find me, and I will conduct business the same as I did for 7 years before PM came into my life.
You members of that site have been incomparable in your loyalty, dedication, and support. To describe it any other way would be a gross understatement.
I’ve appreciated it…all of it ;)

I’m disgusted how now that the election thread is put back out into the general forums, it mentions, “As in any election, not everyone is always pleased with the results”.

I can’t reiterate enough to the people reading this that I am not sore for losing any election.

I didn’t lose any election, I’m not running around like a psychotic looking for revenge.
I was never in the running, my position was never in the running. I was expected to retain my position and allow this complete unorthodox over-throwing of my staff, the people around me.

The Moderators of the site made it VERY CLEAR that they were extremely unhappy with the fact that two people, Randy and myself, legally owned that board.

In attempt to disarm the administration, and get more of the opposing moderators on the inside… the mutiny against admin was formed, the elections held and the positions were filled with certain opposing individuals in attempt to place themselves in administration, thus placing more power against the two sole owners, with the very power of voting, which we had given them.

I simply refused to be associated with that, and obviously did not like my government being completely replaced by individuals that totally opposed myself and the rest of administration during the election, but beg me to stay afterwards.
