    For crying out loud. This has clearly become a case of the anecdotal million dollar ink pen vs the pencil. This whole situation blew up because there has been a rash of debatably unnecessary thread moves, many of which were from the "Traditional Kilt" subforum (in fact, for a time there it seemed like every thread started in the traditional sub-forum was being moved). The pattern became noticeable, the threads became buried elsewhere, complaints were voiced, sticky posts regarding "THCD" were unstuck, and things descended into a swirl of accusations and several bizarre, incomplete forum changes. Over moderation and excessive fragmentation are slowly ruining my experience on this site. I like having the subforums as it appears they more historically were when you look through older threads. Historical for the really old styles, Traditional for the "THCD" type folks (for lack of a better word), and Modern for those that want to wear something more approximating the latest fashions. Clean, simple, and if the members pay attention, they can quickly find the discussions appropriate to what they want to discuss.

    As a sidenote, I am thankful for all the information I have gotten from XMTS about kilting in general, and for the many wonderful people I have interacted with here. I hope to continue using this site and interacting with other enthusiasts of this wonderful, versatile, historical garment... the kilt.
