and who our dedicated mod gods are.
The best way to handle rumor is to stay away from gossip. Now who is in charge...
The Admins and Moderators who could make it this Saturday left the meeting with this one thought. We the moderators and administrators have a say or a vote on what we do and how we handle issues. Furthermore, it is our intention that we listen more that we act and that when we act, we act as a group.
Now who are the mod Gods? Is it really that important to label someone as a mod God?
Personally I have had the pleasure of working with many on this site and I can tell you that each and every person has something to offer regardless of what their perception is of themselves. True we do have those that are more versed in areas than others but still we need those people to balance the team. No one person can do everything.
Quote:Its all getting a bit confusing and would be a real shame to see our excellent mod teams fall apart and splinter into
factions, as someone who has made good use of and loves this site, it does appear that there is some internal strife, i hope i'm wrong about this but it's the impression i get from 'snippets' of information picked up from various posts. Perhaps someone could clear this up in one thread and squash
rumors with facts.
Splintering is something that happens in real life and this "hobby" group is not immune to the real world. Strife is something normal as is disagreements, empathy, hate, love and anger. Some might say he's the angry type others might say he's not angry, he's just passionate. Well both statements are true, when people are passionate the tendency is to scoff at people that do not agree with their passion.
Let's step back a bit, while we have had "surprises" they are not any different than when families get together at the holidays. Some eat at piece while others enjoy their meal in pieces during family reunions/eruptions.

As far as I can see things are ok.
Now getting to the original post.
What happened to the Westland Whirlwind, Lancaster, etc?
While it is not my business to explain the particulars and report a blow by blow I can be a bit general.
Tempers and stubbornness are traits not conducive to general well being in ANY situation. Unless one really needs to "burn that bridge" as we say here in the US.
Problem was that things were said by one that was not liked by another and as we all know this never turns out pretty. Now if you want the nitty gritty rather than listening to the gossip, I suggest to ask those that participated because I will not post private data on a public forums, period.
As to what happened to those mods is simple, the Author/Authors asked for them to be removed from this site as they will be available on other forum sites one being prime, the RAF 662 site.
The magister and all other mods will and could be included in the Unified installer once they feel the mods are complete and are willing to share with the communities.
I will ask that if you posts on this subject that decorum is adhered.
