It his, his financial life or death because not enough people actually want to pay money to be a part of that train wreck.
He seems to forget his content, his product his reason for being is all created for free by his public. Without the dear readers his site is nothing. Smoke and mirrors.

Re: Boycot of TMP
When the last brouhaha blew up I decided that I didn’t need to go onto TMP. I was barely posting anything and finding reading some of the things stressful - while I could have avoided potentially problematic threads I felt it was better just to avoid visiting. Occasionally I follow a Google search there where I am looking for particular things e.g, paint suggestions but I don’t browse the site and don’t post. I can’t say I’ve missed TMP.

Re: Boycot of TMP
Funny how this has all come up again. I think I probably signed up as paying member of TMP about 15 years ago. I was starting off wargaming with Napoleonics and there were many quite helpful people on the site. As the years went by, I found their Marketplace quite useful to buy and sell things. When the above "contretemps" occurred, I decided to sign off and cease my paid membership. For a short period of time, I checked in now and then but I have to say over the last year I have forgotten that the site existed. Probably the best.

Re: Boycot of TMP
I changed my TMP username to something dismissive and have left. I've only browsed once and it was only to confirm that I made the right decision.

It is exhausting trying to reason with him.

Re: Boycot of TMP
Under the circumstances, as it’s clear Dear Editor is watching this thread, maybe better that we maintain a dignified silence here and let him froth away ‘over there’?
Rich has said all he intends to on the subject, so let’s not be party to Bill’s efforts to revive the flame war.

Unfortunately I’ve never been able to join in the fun at Frothers as I’m a well known spammer according to my ISP apparently

That might be caused by a known glitch at Frothers, it always does that when you're replying to someone who isn't logged in. But there's a work-round.
