Ahem, ok, at the risk of being the straw....
I Don't think anyone here DOESN'T Appreciate the effort of what you did, my question is.......was it nessessary? Now, after months of keeping up on posts, I have to sort through these monsters (some over 20 pages long) to find what I was looking for. So, where was the gain in search time? Agreed, we had a Lot of posts that were so close to one another that they needed to be combined, but to do this throughout the forum and turn it from 200 pages of small threads to 15 threads that have 7-20 pages.....I fail to see the effeciency. I think combining posts should be on a by-post basis.

And was this nessessary? Rich was just stating what many here feel. Is this site a colaboration of individuals or one person's project? You took it upon YOURSELF to do this, and then act like you're a Martyr if someone disagrees with what you have done.
Why is it you can belittle someone here for them stating how they feel and voicing THEIR thoughts, but NO ONE can do the same to you. Did you ever think that it is this "Do as I say, not as I do" kind of thinking that has gotten you the label you keep throwing in everyones face, that supposedly everyone thinks of you? Now, not only can you speak you mind and I can't, I'm told BY YOU what I THINK of you and if I disagree, you have the right to ban me.....??
Put the shoe on the other foot. Someone Volunteers of their own free will to do something, then dares anyone to disagree with them and when they do, that person is TOLD by the authority what they think about the authority.

I think maybe you do. First off, it's not just YOUR Forum. It's a collaboration. If we wanna make it a matter of ownership, it's Mr. Fel's Forum and he has provided it to us to share a common hobby.
A Moderator is a word from the base word "Moderate" which means
" 1 a: avoiding extremes of behavior or expression : observing reasonable limits
b: calm, temperate"
That is NOT you! You fly off the handle way too easily. You take things to personally and you have no ability to take criticism. Sorry. Not meaning to belitle , but if you can "voice [your] thoughts" then so can I!
I'm sorry it has come to this, but I am getting sick of you playing the martyr and using that to justify your heavy handed tactics. It is a vicious cycle....you do someting others don't agree with, argue you're being picked on because everyone doesn't agree with you, then make another unpopular decision, knowing that it will bolster your self fulfilling prophecy.
