The fuss for the most part is not over factions.. its over the fact that members on this forum manipulated vulnerable people.. by directing them to other sites / blogs.. one of these people was a man who was terminally ill and very afraid, another was Lucy and I have examples of numerous others who don't want to be public identified.

Admin were made aware a number of times and chose to do nothing.. these people were intimidated on this forum via PM.. they were hounded and ridiculed on other forums by members on this forum and again nothing was done by the admin here... the ONLY time something was done was when legal action was threatened by one of the individuals against the primary forum in question.


Now we can all sit and argue over diets... that I have no problem with.. the bottom line however is that there are people who regularly post on here; one of whom is a moderator that were complicit in directing and cohering new vulnerable people on this forum so that they could be manipulated.

This has been raised time and time again and nothing is done.. certain groups of people on this forum now feel like they are being victimised when these individuals remain yet they get PMs and threats of life time bans from the forum administrators about relatively minor offenses.. indeed Defran's ban reason was for a comment she had made months ago... not even for a comment she made in the post yesterday... how is that even reasonable? So people now feel like they need to do something to get herd and I don't blame them.. two moderators have resigned today myself included over the whole hypocrisy of the situation.. I suspect another couple may follow..

This is much more serious that a stupid argument over a number of carbs to eat.. and it defiles a memory of a good friend of a number of us to suggest as such... a man who unfortunately went to his grave being hounded whilst DCUK sat by and done nothing.. That's got to stink in anyone's book no matter which side of the carb line you sit..

Then the KGB got at his post and reduced it to this.

Ah yes the person who had to threaten legal action against other members due to their vile treatment is disgraceful for expecting a response from the forum admin after numerous PMs / requests that something be done..
