It is with considerable regret that we have to make the following announcement. As some of you may, or may not, know, the Moderators of Atari-Forum have banned our entire group and have also been editing posts from people who have posted about this. We have apparently been banned for suggesting that some of their recent releases have games which are "not very good". Now, people regularly point out that our current and past releases are "not very good" (as is their right) but we never, ever, see any moderator action against these posts. How is it ok to slag us without reprimand, but when we fight back we get shit? Moderators should moderate, not dictate. Recently we've been having tongue in cheek old-school flame-parties with our good buddies the Pompey Pirates. I'm sure Juggler didn't take any offence with our banter and neither did we with his comments. Even the co-founder of Automation stated that the 'English humour' was often mis-understood. However this was the other main contributing factor in us been banned. With this in mind, please read the following link for more information. The hypocritical nature of the bannings, and the editing of posts by other users has driven us to make this public instead of settling it in a quiet discreet way like we originally intended. AF/AL: As per your last email. Can you please carry out our requests.
