At the risk of getting banned myself, of which I couldn't really care less, I assume Jacob was banned for making accusations without foundation in that thread and I defended my position as part of it, my position being one of those he was attacking.
Why he got banned or the thread removed is down to the moderators, Newbie Neil I think.
I have already asked why the thread was removed and the posting from Neil states it will be edited and reposted. This is a complete wste of time in my eyes, it doesn't give any other reader an opportunity to form an opinion based on half a story.
Incidentally, I agreed with that posting - I thought the pictures we published were the most dangerous we have ever done, and made that clear on that thread, I've also informed my Editor about my concerns as well. I'm not prepared to dscuss it further, I know its dangerous, I know we shouldn't have published it, but we have.
I rejoined the forum to defend a slur against myself and others, and have been attacked since, again without foundation.
I have offered advice freely and honestly over the years, both through the forum, and off line, but now I seem to defending myself or my magazine from unsubstantiated accusations more regularly.
