    Question What is the situation?

    Looking through several forums, I see that Ming's name has been removed, and both he and Rah are missing from the list of Off Topic Mods.

    Have they been dismissed?
    Suspended?

    I ask not just out of curiosity, but as a long standing member of Apolyton, I would like to know what the situation is.

    If they have been removed as a result of the Friday Chicago meet, then I wish to lodge a protest, both men have devoted countless hours of their free time to making Apolyton a site worth visiting, and have shown unswerving loyalty and ability to this site.
    To be removed for a temporary laspe in judgement would seem far to severe, and would reflect adversly on the ACS.

    Dan and Mark, I respectfully ask for you to clarify the situation.

    What? When did that happen?

    Ming is an integral part of Apolyton, he's like the Apolyton logo, we cant live without it.

    Is this because of that Chicago meeting and the Ming account spamming?

    Mark and Dan face a tricky situation. Doing nothing will inevitably (and quite fairly) lead to allegations of double standards, but Chris' point is a fair one........taking severe measures is equally inappropriate. The balance must be struck.........not a nice christmas present to have.

    Or the Canadian one either.

    Seriously, it would be foolish to loose Ming and Rah over this although a period of penance (well silence at least) appears to be in progress...

    I'd guess I'd raise a glass to the good old days, forget the minor hard times, and enjoy Ming as a regular poster again.

    Rah? was he a mod while I was away? Did I know that?

    Actually he hasn't been a mod for long so you may not have noticed yet Lancer. It's a moot point now, as he isn't a mod any more. I am afraid, we are at the mercy of MtG and no one else
