This is a very difficult thread to respond to as Ed has left the forum. As he isn't here to defend himself it would be wrong of me to go into details as to what has happened.

Suffice to say that a warning was given on more than one occasion about a forum rule being broken. Ed clearly disagreed with the warning.

The moderation team were in the process of discussing where to go with this when Ed decided to leave.

I am the individual who Ed got into a disagreement with. I too think it's a shame that he's decided to leave, the situation could have been resolved. I take absolutely no pleasure in his departure.

Unless any of the moderators have anything to add, this thread is now closed. I can't see any mileage in keeping it going as I can't discuss details about a former members decision to leave without him being present, it makes for something of a one sided pissing contest.
