There is another OWC scheduled (not sure exactly when but soon).   Should be an interesting one from what I've heard.

Meh, I'm sorry Michael. I'm at the point where I'm ready to leave too. We lost Led, Phil, Jeff threatened. The boards will always be hostile. I'm sory for the mess I may create in the near future because I respect you, Bert, and Don for the challenging tasks you have here... But if I'm going, I'm getting deleted.

My time here, I've given people my best advice. They've taught me how to write screenplays. Whether you like or dislike my work, its time for me to move to features, or give it up all together.

And I think its time someone takes a bite out of the so-called "elephant in the room" - and I'm just the lad to do it...

Cheers everyone!!!
James

Quoted from greg

The problem is, as Bert stated, there's a small percentage who could care less about that and are constantly disrespecting other board members, the mods, and even Don.  And the level of tolerance for that disrespect has been pushed further and further.  Or maybe it's not tolerance; maybe it's just dealing with it and hoping it'll work itself out on its own.  But it never does because these people don't seem to care.  It's always the same crap over and over and no amount of "please be respectful" warnings ever seem to fix it.


And the mods and Don are trying to deal with that.  As you've probably noticed the mods are taking a more active role in trying to solve these issues but it's not going to change overnight.  It isn't always easy to say someone is wrong and someone is right in a lot of cases, it's not always black and white.

We lost Kevin as well, and he was a new member who was contributing like crazy, in terms of posting scripts, reading and providing meaningful feedback, and getting involved in various debates, in which he threw out loads of interesting information, that he was obviously well versed on.

We all have our own personality, and when its online, it tends to be a bit different than it probably is ion real life.  People need to keep that in mind...and try to understand.

If you're gonna go down, go down swinging, James.  That's what I believe at least.

Everyone leaves for their own reasons.  And all of these people leave for different reasons.  People have been leaving the site since it started for every reason under the sun.  There isn't any one reason or any easy solution.   Nor is it likely that we'll ever stop people from leaving.  

However, being civil to and having respect for your fellow members is a good way to ensure that you aren't their reason.

Yes I confess. Phil has gone because I promised him that it would present Isabel, a beautiful and special young carioca of Copacabana beach. That’s it! Sorry!

Now I'll make an appeal:

Please, Phillip Clark Jr, return for the welfare of SimplyScripts poor wanabe like me!

I thought Kevin gave his reasons...maybe he didn't.  I have been asked not to go into any detail about his exit.

Ray has been on and off the boards lately...mostly off.  Not sure why.

I think Shawn made it quite clear, but then again, most of his posts that final night were deleted, so maybe many didn't actually see what the deal was.

Khamanna made it quite clear why she left, but she neglected to fess up to the real details.

I find it odd that Phil would just disappear like this with no explanation or even warning, whatsoever.  Hopefully, he comes back to let us in on what went wrong, in his eyes.

Can I use Phil's user name now?  

I wish him all the best and hopefully he'll pop in to visit every now and then.

I only found out the other day that Phil and wonkavite were partners! I never knew that - and I only realized during the last OWC that wonkavite was female! Lol

Cheers all

Quoted from screenrider

Despite the many tussles I've had with Phil, I wish him the best.  I've always appreciated his creativity.  Personally I think he'll be back.


really?

I think he'll be back as well, and I think he will partner with Screenrider to write the bestest, coolest, techno-thriller to hit the market since Up From The Depths.

I'm still around, just trying to focus on work. Forums can be a distraction. But I wish SS the best, and I am grateful for everyone in it that has helped me...a long list! I still read scripts of regulars too, but I've been emailing reviews. Anyone needs a read, I'm always willing to do the best I can.

All the best to everyone, and leave a light on for Phil. He's a special guy.

BTW, arguments never bothered me. They're part of life, part of any active forum.

OK, back to work.

Oh, I'm lurking in the shadows wondering why Jeff is telling James to "go down".

I... just really... don't...


Lettuce discuss Phil some more.
Please.
I've got disturbing images to blot out of my imagination's eyes.


Nah.
Not really.
They're quite amusing, actually.


PHIL!!!
Where are you, Phil?!




Ya'll wait here, I'm going to go see if he fell down in the well.
Anyone seen Lassie?

I'm just dodgey that way.

HaHa...funny, Ray. I didn't tell James to go down, but said if he is going to go down, he may as well go down swinging.

We miss you, Ray.  As hard as that may be to comprehend, it's true, at least for me.

Hope to see you round more often...
