Discussing the usage of the TEA thread

<< < (96/105) > >>

pcprogrammer:
I think there are still plenty members left that like and use the thread, but if the name TEA means so much to put theft on the table, a simple solution is to rename both the new sub section and the thread to something else.

The members who left can then enjoy their TEA on groups.io and the members who stay can enjoy the "EEVBlog Pub" in the new section.

Because what is in a name, whilst it is just a place to have conversations. Then it also does not need to be only about test equipment anymore. As long as it is mostly electronics related, as that is the nature of the forum in its roots.

That's kind of pointless.

Just lock the thread and use the rest of the forum as it was.

Not helpful, nor even right.

There's no justifiable reason for anybody to feel the need to prove I/we are right and you/them are wrong.

Let it go; return to normality.

Now for something completely different, I'll chip in my opinion:

1. TEA thread should be locked and at the top and bottom a link placed to the TEA groups.io group.
2. There should be no TEA subforum.

EEVblog owner, moderators and patrons need to just let it go. You screwed it and the community moved on. As someone else elegantly said, this is trying to squeeze the toothpaste back into the tube. Don't dilute what is left because the majority of major contributors are gone and to retain it in name or concept is pretty much just plain old theft.

For exactly this kind of behaviour I will never join TEA@groups.io: you moved, don't claim ownership on what you left behind.
Edit: I was expected a happier 300th post :--

Oh an human sed execution. How slashdot.

Here's a reminder of what happened: https://www.eevblog.com/forum/chat/discussing-the-usage-of-the-tea-thread/msg4378564/#msg4378564

Not only that we are more than just the TEA thread. We help people. We design critique. Some of us are even actual engineers! Some of us make new things for people to use.
