He's gone!
Hurt, humiliated, his site for a decade taken over by people who, in his opinion, didn't care.
I 'm privy to his feelings because evidently I was the only one to care enough to respond to his pm a while ago.
I know no more, but I miss him.
He and I had some old-fashioned up-and-downers on site (read my 'join' date) but we always got back on speaking terms and he was the energetic face of this forum for ever. Every time I came back, Twiggs would remind me why I liked 'CHEERS' and make me feel welcome.
I'm not going into the pros and cons, rights and wrongs or anything else because I'm sure there are things I don't know, but I wish I had my sparring partner back.
Love him or hate him, Twiggs was Mr. MOT for a decade. Whether he was the architect of his own downfall I know and care not but MOT is not the same without him.

Hmm, I would suggest his actions were fairly bullying, but oh well.

He is welcome back, he chooses not to come back for whatever reason.

He continued to post after issues regarding a certain subject were raised but he chose not to respond, to ignore them. As has been said in the past and on this thread the vast majority would welcome him back with open arms.

As for the site being taken over by people who did not care, his main gripe always seemed to be with mods which he appointed himself.

I'm not aware what happend but it is very sad twiggs isn't on the forum. A1 leeds fan, and very welcoming on this site. If he reads this thread I hope he realises the site is stronger and more fun to be a part of with him as a poster. N
Would like to say it's nice to see Jo back posting aswell, hope all is well.

Adam, I wasn't 2nd guessing or stating an opinion - merely relaying what I was told, i.e. being a post office (he never asked me to say anything by the way).
He certainly regretted some of his appointments and I don't think there's any dubiety about that.

As to the reasons and conflicts, they're not mine with which to deal.
You were with him from the very start of MOT so you should know him better than I.

I said that I don't know everything because I don't! I just think his sense of loss and betrayal is poignant.
I also said that I don't know his own part in a lot of the story so I'm not trying to pass judgement on anyone.

In fact, my only take on this whole situation is that I'd like to have him back and I'm not sure how that could be accomplished, given the circs. Hell I don't know if he'd want to come back, but if enough people want, I'll relay this thread to him by email attachment - evidently he can't access MOT at the moment for whatever reason.
