I am saddened......

I know I am going to catch hell for this from many and praise from others but what I do know is the difference between right and wrong.

THIS FORUM IS WRONG!

When I created BladeForums, and Spark implemented the plan I put in place, I in know way expected nor anticipated this. Yes I love the idea of a password protected forum so I can come in here and tell you what a worthless piece of **** Greg Moony of Benchmade is. I would further love to tell you all the dirty inside secrets behind my lawsuit with Microtech as well as the inside scoop from Walter Brend, Big John of Texas and others. I am well known for speaking my mind, as Kevin "Mad Dog" McClung is clearly aware of, but this is just plain WRONG!

If I want porn, I know where to look. You want FREE porn? Go find it or post here where to find it BUT DON'T ACTUALLY POST THE **** HERE! This is NOT what BladeForums is about. I enjoy looking at a nice piece of ass just as much as the next guy in here but I DO NOT COME HERE TO LOOK FOR IT.

When S¤¤ ! took over I told him to run it as I would have. Well folks, I would have NEVER done this. I know some of you enjoy this and in another light I might enjoy this but this is just not right. The inmates are now running the asylum.

Blast me if you want, but deep down inside, each and everyone of you know this is not the place. Don't give me that "I can click on something else" **** either. That is not the point. What is the point is that this is a place people come to talk about knives. We have plenty of traffic and this forum is not going to make this a better place. This brings BFC to the same level as that of some porn site. Heck even Maxxum or Stuff has guidelines on what is appropriate. I would let this slide if we had at least those guidelines but what I have seen here is nothing more than smut. I am sorry for those who disagree and you all know I like to please as many as possible but I know that this is just wrong, plain wrong.

Spark,

Think of this for a moment. You have just opened Pandora's box. You know as well as I do that this forum uses cookies. If I log on the cookie is served. Then no matter when or who uses my computer next they have access to this forum, unabated. This will also happen with other members. What are you going to tell them? There is no actual log off feature that is readily accessible. The forum is an extension of your personality. Do the right thing, please.

You will be shutting down the forum for maintenance tonight at midnight. Shut down this forum and make W&C this forum if you like but the porn crap is just too much. Again, Do it, Do It Right, Do It RIGHT NOW!
 
Spark, can you guarantee that minors can't get into this forum? If not, BF is still at risk of getting into trouble. I don't have to like it so I don't have to look at it, but what I especially don't want is for BF to get slammed by outsiders for running an unregulated porn site that kids can get into. This could drive more folks to KF than charging for admission.
 
Mike's self serving sanctimonius post aside, I've been doing some hard thinking lately about the nature of the forums and W&C / Super Exclusive in particular.

I'll post my thoughts on these after the forums come back up later tonight. In the meantime, I'm locking this one down as it's not going to serve any productive good.

Kevin
