    I must have missed something too. I just reviewed posts for the last month and I can't find anything.
    You've summed up the problem in a nutshell.

    The controversial threads have been removed.

    It's not just about whacking or flaming. It's about being able to discuss really important issues.

    There are social issues, gender-politics issues, legal issues, and rights issues among others that affect us as daily kilt-wearers and we can't discuss those issues here.

    Discussions about matching kilt hose to shirts are great, but I'm more interested in whether it's socially, politically, culturally, legally safe for men to wear kilts when and where we want to.

    That puts me at odds with this forum's policies (and the sensibilities of many, if not most of this forum's participants) and so I have to move on.

    Well, maybe I am a bit more hard nosed than some, but if you're leaving, leave already. Don't post a thread notifying the world that you are leaving, then keep checking back on said post to see how many people are going to miss you and wanting to know why you are leaving. That is just childish and trying to call attention to yourelf.

    ... hey... what carajo is hapening here?
    sorry to say but......this seems someway disappointing to me,... never wanted to see a mate leaving this thread, but I'd accept the reasons for it... what is difficult to understand is the feeling that this post reflects!...If some day I decide to leave a club or even the company I work for,... I'd love to have the chance to farewell my friends, whatever it may be the reason for leaving... I simply can't see nothing negative on that... maybe I am also childish for thinking that way?,...

    I agree with the usual line of moderator's work, but I couldn't get the way this one expressed so easily,... sorry to say!

    ¡Salud!
