A few people really like to discuss anything except segways on this forum, as long as it is politics/religion/believes/etc. To keep a long story short, they don't respect each other believes and have some kind of need to poke each other now and then to ignite a discussion.
In the past we (John or I) moved a (part) of the thread away to keep it fun for the other forum members. This wasn't appreciated by the few members.
So we came to the conclusion with the few members to leave the post there, and remind people how to behave. That didn't work. We have indicated a few times in a thread that we didn't like certain behavior, but they kept going on.
So yesterday, someone PMed me about a thread, called
Facts die. It was one of those threads again, which didn't go about Segways. I tried the infraction system and moving the thread, but the infraction system doesn't give much clarity, so I reversed the infraction and placed a reminder and closed the thread.
But through the few years that I have been a moderator, I came to the conclusion that my moderator tasks consist for the full 100% out of babysitting these few members: removing offending/insulting posts, remind them on how to behave, etc. etc.
Well guys, you win, I give up, I had enough of this <beep>. I will ask John to remove my moderator rights, and to make your lives even better, I will ask him to close my account, so that I can not get tempted to check this website again.
mgalliani, I don't have the privileges to delete accounts, so I can't unfortunately help you with that. But send a PM to John, and I'm sure he is more than willing to help you with it.
I apologies for all the good people that I leave behind here, but I rest assure that most of them already have my contact details, or otherwise know to find me. Don't worry, I won't completely vaporize from the segway-planet, I will be hanging out on segforum, a european segway related forum. Mainly containing german messages at the moment, but there are already some english messages on them as well.
For now, I would like to close my last post on SegwayChat with something fun to share, a roadrunner video with Segways in it:

All that is left to write on this forum is: Good bye SegwayChat, hope to see all the friends that I have made via this forum, in real life or on segforum.
