Where Did Croppie Go?

[Crinkmeister]

Not been on the forum for quite a while. Has Croppie retired? Didn't see any comments from him on any of the threads I looked at.

 

[ShaunCorbs]

He moved on with a few others

Just been thinking seems he has been the most missed ex member as there has been a lot of folk coming on here asking about Croppie.

As you said "He was a character", some liked him whilst others didn`t 😉 Having spent an evening with him and a few beers I enjoyed his company and wit.

Oh bl00dy hell. Are you saying we are all effectively threatened with the old 'conform or be banished' ?

He pops up on Facebook now and then.

Step out of line enough and your account could be suspended, that is all I`m saying. 😛
Same as any other forum really.

Is that first hand experience there?

 

[Best]

Pls expand...

Croppie (John) was a moderator of the old forum.
Although he could be strict against posts that were seeking advice on dangerous work, illegal gas, etc.
He along with some others added a lot humour here.
He left when forum was changed

Another forum.

 

[Welder]

😉😉😉 me thinks...

Nobody left. They were ushered out. Some cracking screenshots of all the bull that went on.

 

[Welder]

Hey ho. **** happens.
Its very rare that people who start things together stay together. People grow in different ways and so do their opinions and needs.
Just look at all the great couples in computing! Even, dare I say, in the world of taps! THE John Guest of Guest & Chrimes, the guys in Rotherham who originally patented the high pressure tap in 1845, parted company soon after due to business disagreements. It aint new!

I missed the fallout at the time and wouldn’t mind viewing that.
I hadn’t been on the forum for a while and when I came back, - most of the guys had gone and it was the aftermath of the clear-out. 🙁

Alas that wasn't posted here mate, it would of been censored if it was, very interesting though.
