It can also have its own spin off threads that can emerge elsewhere, like general, repair and main TE sections, if needed. --- End quote --- I offered to move it to it's own section with it's own moderator, but nobody involved has expressed interest in that. There was just talk on the other TEA forum how wonderful it is having different threads instead of one big long thread. Why on earth didn't someone just ask me to create a forum section for them where they could have done exactly that? :-// --- End quote --- EEVBlog Forum is much more than the therapy thread. The therapy thread shouldn't have its own separate section, rules, and moderator. If it needs those, that is a good reason for it to be separate and not a forum-within-a-forum. |

It’s entirely reasonable (and somewhat common) to have different moderators for different parts of a forum. If the rules (or interpretation of those rules) is slightly stricter or more relaxed in different parts of the forum, that also feels fine to me. If those choices result in a better outcome overall, I’d say they were pragmatic choices. I don’t see a need to have some Platonic ideally set of perfectly consistent rules, if variation and adaptation will yield a better result. |

Sorry to hear, but that's fine, I wish them luck on their new forum. The TEA thread continues here without a bunch of regulars. I've offered solutions and they remain open if they want to take me up on it, but I won't be spending any more time on this topic. |

There are faults on both "sides" as a result of some long-standing and deeply rooted differences. Let's get over it, and "just be friends". BTW, there was also a schism from TekScopes causing TekScopes2 to be formed. From the little I know, similar causes and consequences were involved. Schisms happen; 'tis the way of the world. |

I don't know about the rest of the users here, but I would leave the thread open for 24 hours more and after that close it and off we go with our live. Both sides gave their reasons, explained their grudges and gave solutions trying to reach and agreement. Doors are open in both sides, so probably the best to let things take his course and time to make his work. |
