Quote:

Here goes (again, some may have read it earlier this morning)...

Since we have been down there has been a lot of internal communication, about a variety of things. As some may know, I am not actually holding the domain, mainly because when I started BuckTV I had already captured a lot of shows and therefore I didn't want to have my name out there.
Bugsfix volunteered to register the domain, and I thought it was a good idea. After a while he also started a PayPal account in case we have to ask for donations. So all in all, he is in charge of domain and the money. He takes a risk with this, I am aware of that, and also a risk that I am not willing to take. Unfortunately, this offer came with a lot of conditions.

Well, to sum it up, in the last weeks, I had a terribly hard time trying to communicate with him. He has made decisions about BuckTV, that I do not approve of, for example hosting his own board on the community webspace without telling anyone, making people mod with access to internal information that hadn't even posted a single time on BuckTV and had never talked to anyone in the group, badmouthing other members and change usergroups.
While yesterday the situation was still in limbo, this morning I saw he removed me from the mainpage.
And after hearing everyday "I don't give a fuck what the other group members think", I have to say "Fuck you".

The trust between me and him is broken, I am not able to work with him in a professional manner. Since he holds the account and feels his way of handling things is OK, there is nothing left for me but leave. I will "resign" here and let him and the rest of the gang handle it.

Anyone who knows me a little bit will know, that this decision didn't come easy to me. BuckTV means the (virtual) world to me, and it will be hard to leave it behind. But in the current situation, I don't see any other way.

I am glad the page is back up, and hope you all enjoy it
Bucky

yup the database reverted days ago, they are serving ed2k links on IRC and are looking for a new server, looks fine though... this kind of crap happens all the time to ed2k sites unforunately, but the community there is strong enough to see a relocation through

Yes, that's really sad... It's always so depressing when things end up like this... On the side, there are some things in this guy that strangely remind me of a certain fellow whose initials were S.M., if you get my drift. I don't know the facts, but one thing is sure, deleting the ex-mods' post just because they don't want to be mods anymore is a pathetic thing to do. I'm not judging anyone here, but for me BuckTV was the child of Bucky, a person to be respected for many reasons. I don't think I'm going to be an often guest there anymore. Even though it exists, it's not going to be the same without all those people. Big loss for the whole community.

to be honest i rarely used bucktv, couldnt stand the layout, and they had episodes missing that were well sourced and verified was never a fan but it is sad when this happens

Total opposit for me, everything I clicked had heaps of sources and downloaded fine... the two old shows I requested got posted a few days after I asked... wat more do you want from a site?

I hope Bucky and her crew will open a new site. Bugs claims that BuckTv will go on but without Bucky and other mods, I don't think it has a chance.
