Default Ben Crosland ?

just curious if any one has spoken with Ben lately?
(I know he hasn't been on the forum since it went down earlier this year).

It was definitely good having him on here - he helped me out quite a bit (especially in the TI 1.02 - 1.09 days)

I'm pretty sure him and the other Access boys stay only on the other forum, as many members vented their anger about the faulty TIs. Not good for a company to acknowedge a site when there's so much bad press on it.

It's a great shame. It was a dark era. =/

Ben was a good chap!

True, but they were just venting their frustration. It's just sad they decided to vent it towards the wrong guy alot of the time.

Nothing we can do about that now.....

In addition to that, this forum wasnt being moderated properly at that time and alot of the shit that was being thrown...STUCK. I dont blame Ben or Mark cutting their ties here...

I emailed Mark a while ago about this very topic. I got a good reply explaining their reasons (as described above) and saying that there was no hard feelings. They will continue to post to the AMPFEA mailing list and the other forum as they don't want to keep moving around.

They also did it in their spare time and any post weren't necessarily made as Access employees but more out of a personal interest... It was a sad day when we lost their support but I doubt they will be back.

Like I said the email was good and we were wished luck but as DS says, "once burned".


Such a shame...

Drammy
