Owners?

Good luck with that Cairnsey.

Recall a couple of years back I caused a big stir (most unlike me) on here by suggesting a democratic form of ownership of the forum. Was howled down mercilessly for suggesting it.

With the benefit of hindsight, would we have been any worse of for following that suggestion? The dictatorship we are operating under now, albeit a benign one, does not appear to be progressing the forum.

It's a good idea GO. A co-op style of ownership could work well.

essentially...Posters are whining about the current state of Saintsational ..but...they don't want to act themselves...it's far easier to whine

Any other interpretation is just glossing reality, which is a Saintsational strong point....
