Your warning about ditching the Uzumlu forum seems a bit drastic to me Scunner,we are all aware that the Uzumlu forum,along with the Ovacik,Hisaronu,and all the other,for want of a better description,minor forums,are on CBF through your kind indulgence,and we all appreciate that fact.
I directed the question to the gentleman who seems to have been the cause of all the unrest as to whether his views were endorsed by the rest of the members in Uzumlu,did'nt get a reply,might have been because the topic was locked.
Without wishing to drag the issue up again,my spin on the situation was that he considered that the Uzumlu forum had taken unfair flak from people who did'nt live their,or indeed people who did'nt live in Turkey,and,rightly,or wrongly,decided to take up the cudgels on their behalf.
I believe that a lot of members from Uzumlu were a bit retiscent about joining the fray,from making comments that might be construed as being being inflammatory. I believe that only one member was knocking the manner in which the team runs it.As you so rightly point out you have'nt deleted it because of the good people who live there.The good people are in the majority,so why should these good people suffer for the actions of a few.
I,and probably a lot of the silent majority of members am frankly taken aback by your threat,sorry mate,that's how I read it,to be honest bully boy tacticts.I'me gobsmacked.
