When Mark bought the board, JP was supposedly not going to be part of it anymore. Just like what was said now.

Then, when Mark was gone at a show JP supposedly stepped in to help out because Mark was away. Like the camel getting his nose under the tent, JP became more and more involved. I don't think that when Mark first bought the board JP was considered a "moderator" but he still seemed to have total control when he wanted to, even changing the board and changing displays. Some were so off-color I probably would have disabled his access and moved servers so it would never happen again. Despite numerous events that would caused most people to shut out JP, Mark did not reign him in.

It is a good thing that there is now a new moderator. However, unless JP no longer has any access or moderator privileges, the effort will be moot in my opinion.

I left GMS for what I felt was a good reason. At this time I do not plan to increase the number of boards I monitor or post on as the return on investment is not worth the additional time. That is the danger of pissing off customers -- if they go somewhere else, you may not get them back.
