It is with great regret and a sad and heavy heart I announce my resignation as an APSense Admin

by Bj aka Bill Brown Hosting and Backup Service provider
We have all noticed the massive influx of scams and spams into APSense. For 4 years, I have been both a loyal member and admin here in APSense, fighting against the scams and spam that have persistently tried to get the upper hand.

With the newly adopted, no action policy, of management against this recent influx of scams and spam,  it has become very clear that management has made a change  of direction in where they are steering  APSense. This is a change of direction I cannot,  and will not support.

I Cannot  permit my reputation to be associated with a site that makes no effort to stop illegal activities being promoted on it. I will not stand accused of aiding and abetting  the said illegal activities when the FTC move on APSense.

It is therefore, with great regret to all those that have been helped by me and have helped and supported me over the past four years that  I announce my resignation as an Administrator for the main APSense site. 

I will remain as a member and as a moderator for ASK APSense Those that want my brand of honest and genuine help with no hidden agenda can always come to me.

I have been left no option Garnet. the pleas for sanity and ethics have fallen on ears deafened by those that want the scams and the spam so they can continue unhindered.

thank you Sean. This may turn out for the best. 4 Years of battling for what is right with both hands tied behind my back and people wonder why at times i got verbal with them. I do not apologize for any of it. Those that figuratively got smacked around the ear deserved it there were more that got away with it than got it i can assure you.
