If he had been made Mod of Environment that would be a board contributing to OzPol instead of the present drag on OzPol that is the toilet of a board that Environment now is.

Two good reason why he may have left.

Yes, well said.

As someone who considers themselves as intelligent
and well informed, I often wonder why there's so
much absurd bullshit, character assassinations, blatant
lies, childish squabbles, and off-topic crap posted on
these forums.

And I've mentioned it before, but I can only assume
it's due to poor and/or no moderation. OzPol would
have to one of the most incompetently administered
forums I've encountered in a long time.

Sad
