Ok, I think the back-and-forth sniping in this thread needs to stop. Some people are upset by this, some are amused, and some are just trolls. Either way, anything before this post is under amnesty, however, continue doing it afterwards and I'll crack skulls. Zero tolerance policy, so if you want to try the "I WASN'T FLAMING!" approach go for it, because you've now been clearly warned so you only have yourself to blame if you don't like the consequences.

This is has been a farce, no doubt about it. However, this is not the be-all end-all. EoFF needs new forums staff, and indeed, a change in staff policy for more transparency and less of a clubhouse mentality.

For those of you who are genuinely concerned or disheartened, we ask for your patience while we work out a solution that will make everyone apart from the "Drama? On the internet? *RUBS HANDS GLEEFULLY*" crowd happy. Thank you!
