I didn’t originally want to chime in but I am going to for better or for worse.
I’ve been a member of CAP from very early on and though I don’t post too much I am here everyday reading and checking things out. Guess I’m sort of a quiet old timer here.
The way things have happened over the last few months have certainly shed a negative light on CAP and the industry as a whole. These “issues” are of course very interesting and intriguing, albeit in a negative way, and it’s human nature to want to know the truth and find out about who did what etc.
That being said, I would hope that the management of CAP and associated corporations do their laundry in private. As a simple member of CAP I have no legal right to know what happened and more importantly have chosen not to waste too much time speculating or worrying about it.
The issues of legal transparency and who lied about what may be interesting but that doesn’t mean they need disrupt the CAP community. CAP is much more than Warren, Lou or the companies that control it. This is a community built by its members, for its members and it will live or die by its members.
Whether or not we approve of the alleged lying or deceit or whatever you care to call it, at the end of the day it really should not affect this community and forum unless we choose to let it.
CAP without its members is simply a domain name, a website and forum software, nothing more, nothing of great value by itself.
So, I hope the CAP community and its members can move on and get back to being a happy group of like minded individuals. Regardless of whether we participate in our community under the CAP domain / umbrella or we choose to do it elsewhere I think it is important that the members here stay together as one group and avoid splintering because that truly would be the end of CAP the community, not CAP the company.
