Yeah, that's sad. The forum needed the kind of commitment you brought, and new ideas to improve the forum, etc. It also offloaded David's workload as sole moderator for the whole forum, I think. Alex mostly moderate, and post, in the
Skeptiko Show-thread, if I'm not mistaken?
I haven't really kept up with the whole moderation-debate that has been going on for a while, I just hope it sorts out.
Well anyway, I hope you stick around as a "normal" poster.
