I'd like to know too, so I can attempt to diagnose the problem and perhaps figure out what some people have been complaining and leaving about.
But until then, it continues to be a mystery to us all. *suspense music*

So he didn't like that fact that people could view his vulgarity or...
What new rules exactly? Sorry, he probably didn't explain this all to you before he left huh?

Well most of the "new" rules were simply common sense things that were not rules before but we decided to make them new rules so it's more specific. Not something to be too excited about. And the sensor, well who cares, I'm not sure what's the big deal with censorship. Especially whne it's to take out bad

Lets try not to turn this into a debate on whether you like the censors.

I like the direction of this place. Rules have never been a problem.

He didn't like the way certain members and admin were trying, in poor taste imo, to show how no censors could be bad. He complained about the general attitude at the time and direction, much the same as WW.

VIVA LA REVOLUTION!
Generally, a lot of smart people left and a lot of retards came on, and the admins customized the forums for them, making us lose our freedom of speech. The last people with brains(myself and victor)rallied against this and tried to fight for our freedoms, but the admins managed to demoralize us(look at my group)and quash our rebellion.
Victor left, I left for a short while but was asked to post occasionally, which is what I do. But this place has become a f_cknut-saturated environment and unsafe for human brain cells. I dunno how the mods and Admins stand it.

The worse thing that happened was the revolution of the spammers and their lethal attacks, but after that was faught, there has not been anything bad since then. And that was at the old AF. Now there might be a few odd balls but at least we're not defeating evil spamers. I think the direction we're going in right now is good, the only thing is we need more activity, since sometimes at like 4:00am and it's dead. That's not acceptable.
But the main issue is to stop talking about the direction of the forum, and just go with the flow.

All I'll say is that I miss a lot of the people that were stickin' around more often before the new AF came into existence.

So if I'm in a car and the driver is not driving, and we're headed toward a wall, I should go with the flow?

Personally, I've found that people who are incapable of communicating their opinion without using vulgarity or offending others are some of the least intelligent people I've ever met.
But that's just me.

Unbeknownst to WW; he, and his all powerful intellect, was not the center of the universe...
There are still good people here, and still annoying ones, just like always, nothing has changed overall (thank god I didn't visit often when the forum got really bad...). Some of us stayed around to try to keep things from completely degrading, which, no offense Sir William, is much better than complaining and running... which solves absolutely nothing and never will. The effort you put in (in kindness and diplomacy) is directly linked to the overall outcome of your actions. (Meaning if you come here and try, be respectful of others and their opinions, and not get rude or attackish, things will get better, but harshness never solves anything)

Anyhoo, back on topic:
I know he (victor) hangs out at the IWWC forums, I saw his name mentioned several times when I googled his name, also.
Here's his personal forum, although it looks as to be dead:
