Well everyone... it seems that it's perhaps well past time to decide what to do with this forum. I realize that many members have un-resolved issues with Rob. Consequently I am hesitant to cut off communications completely... although it seems that Rob has already done that himself... :ironic: However I think we are all at a point where we do not want to give even the slightest implication that we support and/or condone such actions and business practices as have been displayed here by Orb.
So what should we do with this forum? Close it to further posts while leaving an archive for future reference? Ban Rob? Limit his access to CPF? Leave things alone?
Two things I cannot and will not do:
1. I cannot move any of the threads here to the MarketPlace 'Hall of Shame'.
2. I will not get involved in any transactions that have taken place between individuals and Orb. Those issues should be pursued privately off the board. I will allow discussion and coordination of punitive action to take place in the 'Hall of Shame' at the MarketPlace. Let me know if you want me to start a thread there. If you want to go that route, I will close this forum and post a link to the 'Hall of Shame'. Likewise, I can post a link over there back to this forum.
It is sad that we all have to have discussions like this but let's keep it civil and rational. It will not do any of us any good to just start posting impractical suggestions or to just vent. That has been done.
