Bootie Wrote:Hmmmm I guess you are unaware of the work Randy has done for the Blitz in the background. To be honest if it wasnt for Randy the Blitz would have shut down a long time ago which is why we have always talked him out of stepping down. With Randy gone I hate to say it but the future of the Blitz as a website is now on tenderhooks. It only takes one thing to go wrong here and without Randy round to fix it the whole place will collapse like a house of cards.
Our only saving grace is the work Raz has been doing behind the scenes.
For now I fear the Blitz jacket is hanging on a shoogily peg.
What exactly is all this "background" work anyway? This seems to be the standard response from those challenge any criticisms of Mr R.D.
I've got friends who run websites (and ones much bigger than the Blitz), and they seem to run 'em pretty efficiently from day 2 day without too much activity going on behind the scenes or in the "background."
Anyway maybe I'm just an ignorant SOB but I still stand behind my statement -
The sheer amount of trouble, ill-feeling and agitation caused by Randy's "moderating" on this site (especially the CM forum), is out of all proportion to any good he has done both as a Blitz club officer or with any of the behind the scenes stuff IMHO.
If the future of the Blitz is in any doubt, then it more probably because of the puerile antics of people like RD and POS who
you have always been bosom buddies with and always supported.
Time you took a good long hard look at yourself I think my friend.
