So long
I think I've had enough of BF behaviors, not excluding some of the mods. For the rest, it's been fun. Happy trails.
Moderator, ban me please

I think it would be unfortunate for many of us if you left.
I agree, some of the so-called moderators work hand-in-hand with the bullies and trolls.
When they appear to officially enable the racists, it gets pretty ugly. I applaud you for standing up to it.

For the time being, I'm just spending little or no time in the P&R and other places where the discussion goes that way. I'm tired with the proverbial "wrestling with the pig" stuff. Bikes, gear, training, bike racing, etc. are the reasons I cane to bf originally and the reason why I'll stay.
Maybe at some later point I'll reenter the more contentious fray.
And as we all say, YMMV.
But anyway, bon voyage and happy trails.

Now if the weather would do the same, it'd be easier to get offline...

It's not necessary to ban you, just log out and if you dont log back in, your account will go dormant.
As for enabling racists, it's really hard to do since most of the team are people of color and would cause friction on the team. I would love for you to send examples of that to me , so it can be addressed. This is the first time I've heard of racism happening amongst the moderation team.

Since he will be leaving, this thread will be closed because we do not allow discussion regarding former members, especially if they cannot reply.
