More than welcome Flint. Pull up a seat - tea or coffee, or something stronger? So what brings you here? Refugee from TOP - t'other place aka prune perhaps.

I'll second that welcome. Even if you're a lefty or a remainer, as long as you can disagree without snarky condescending remarks!

Yeah, I quit the other place a few years ago. Last straw for me was when, as a mod, I bollocked a member for doing something another mod had already told him not to do. It was nothing serious but he was just being a dickhead. Someone behind the scenes then told that member not only my non-mod username but also my real, proper, out-in-the-world identity.
I wasn't all that precious about my details but either Danny or Rob wanted to do anything about it and that got me wondering what else they'd 'let slip'. So I quietly quit. I think it was two months before my forum deterirated into a deep enough shitfight for them to ask where I was.
Fukkem.
aaaaaaanyway. I recognise a few names here from the good old days, thanks for the welcome.

We started off nearly four years ago as "pprunned", a place for those who had been prunned from pprune. I would suspect that 80-90% of our members have at some time been members of the other place. It's very rare for me to have to intervene in some petty squabble. Discovered if I ignore any such they will go away.
My own membership of TOP went back to 2005. Corresponded at some length with PPRuNe Pop in 2009. They won't let me back these days on account I set up in opposition.
I post as Admin on admin issues, and Alison when joining in the affray.

I identify as a brontosaurus you sexist bastard.
And it's okay, I'm not stalking Alison. I used to live in NSW/Qld. (The NT too but I think I'm over that now).
