I'm sorry I've got to say it..... will we ever find out? If it's personal/none of our business, fair enough......however the :mad: looked significant, & the news comes as quite a shock to me, possibly to most of us...???

JDR I would like to say you will be deeply missed on here mate, you've always been a great mod and also a great person.

Hope you stay around as a 'normal' user tho as you're truly an iconic member of BE in my opinion!

Agreed

JDR has been a mainstay of the forum and also a fantastic colleague to work with. losing him will be a great sadness and I hope he reconsiders

Not personal or health reasons, just sincerely pissed of with the attitude and lack of respect from the new owners.

I would like to thank everyone for their kind posts across the forums and for all the pm`s. :wub::wub: :(

I for one don't know enough to express an opinion - however I'm confident jdr wouldn't have taken the decision lightly, and it would be good to think the new owners would be watching this thread & maybe considering expressing their thoughts. Their website must depend on advertising revenue, which in turn depends on Expats. Not disappointed Expats.

ps fourthed. ghastly word!

Just to clarify the owners have owned this site for close on 18 months now, so aren't really 'new'. And for what it's worth jdr is a much loved member of this community.

Never a truer word spoken, one of the best for sure, and his leaving will be the biggest loss for the site.
