We Laughed, We cried, We shared......

It looks like the TLG era of the shroomery is now over.
All signs are pointing to the fact that TLG is being booted as a shroomery sponsor.
They've decided I've been the main instigator in the occasional vendor fights that pop up. Anyway it looks like I'm gone.
I finished the contest in the marketplace forum and will be posting (or notifying) the winners tomorrow evening.
Thank you to everyone who's taken the time over the years to post such nice things.
I can proudly say we've never asked anyone to say these nice things about us, never offered any kind of "incentive".
Even though we're leaving the Shroomery with sadness in our heart, our heads are still held high, and no matter what may be said after we're gone, we're extremely proud of the way we conducted business here at the shroomery.
LOL, I remember when I first came to the shroomery, the average time it took for customers to receive their order was 2 weeks to a month.
We saw that wasn't good enough.
I have so many other things I could talk about but I just hate to type so much that I'd rather just leave you all with my warmest of farewells.
The last 4 years have been great!
Thank you.

I would HOPE NOT...............
Shit happens . Adults get over it & go on . Admin knows that & should act accordingly .
The last shit that happened was clearly instigated & repeatedly aggravated by another vendor. He should be the one that gets the BOOT .
Not TLG.
I love this place . But, if Admin kicks you out of here, that would change to DISRESPECT & I believe I would LEAVE ?????..ALSO .
Not that "I" matter .
Clearly??.TLG does & HERE IS WHY:.
If it wasn?t for spore vendors like TLG?. This place would not be 1/1,000,000th of what it is. You can have all the TEK?s in the world, but without a reputable source of SPORES, all those TEK?s are WORTHLESS.

It saddens me that you are leaving. What makes things worse is that you are being forced to leave, while that "other" vendor is left to carry on with his business like nothing happened.
You should be proud of the way you guys conducted business here. Every person, and I mean every person, that I have talked to about their experiences with TLG was nothing but great.
One of the great things about the Shroomery is that they have such great sponsors. You should be among those sponsors, not forced to leave over some stupid squabbling (which I don't believe was your making). Admins, I mean no disrespect, but you guys have made a big mistake - Punished the wrong vendor.
Please reconsider your decision, I know the members here at the Shroomery want you to.
I wish you the best of luck TLG

I would hate to lose TLG and agar...both big assets to the board.
Honestly I dont think I would have resumed posting again as much as I have if it werent for agar...I got sick of hearing the same old questions...I think if agar left I might end up drifting away as well, just for lack of interest..
I missed all the sponser drama but ultrasonic sounds interesting to me -shrug-

Yeah what the heck? It seems the other guy is who instiagated the argument. TLG just stayed quiet.
All TLG did was try to present a new product to his customers, then someone else got angry/jealous and started flaming him. IMHO the other person made themselves look like an ass, and I would think twice before doing buisness which them.
KEEP TLG!!!!!!!

TLG doesnt want to LEAVE. It is an ADMIN thing. They decide who gets on board & who gets the boot. It appears TLG has a feeling, he is about to get the BOOT.

Sorry to hear, this just sucks.
Jesus I've seen the shroomery change over the years. The politics are so thick here anymore you need waders to get through it all.

I can't say that I completely understand the situation here, but, I don't feel that TLG should be let go. Coming strictly from a business perspective, TLG is the best vendor at the Shroomery. I just do not understand why he gets so much heat, TLG's service is unmatchable. TLG has been a consistent vendor at the Shroomery for as long as I can remember, I dont feel that it is right to simply kick him out when he has supported our community for so long. Dont leave yet dude!

I couldn't agree more, you should stay. Your service and quality are both perfect, and most importantly the Shroomery would be a lesser place without you IMHO.

If you are forced to leave the Shroomery may very well lose some well respected members.
If no action is taken against MikeOLogical I know I for one will have lost respect for the admins.

no one really knows the full story but TLG and the admins so why start speculating when you have little information on the subject.
Stand by your admins with the choice they have made.
There in place for a reason.
Bye TLG i hope you the best

No, you shouldn't just go along with someone because of who they are. I have a lot of respect for the admins, creating and running this site, but I will not just agree with every decision they make because they are admins. Read some of the threads that Mike was in and you'll see he acted like a 4 year old spoiled little brat. From the looks of it, no action has been taken against him, but TLG is getting the big old boot. I think when a vendor is going to get kicked off, the admins should give a full explanation. The members of this site have a right to know why such a great company isn't allowed here anymore.

So do you think we Americans should stand by Bush as the choice "we" made. I don't think so. I don't go along with someone just because.

I too...have great respect for the Admin's here. HOWEVER................. Members must allowed to state an opinion & support someone getting hit with the wrong end of the stick, unfairly. At least IMHO. Even if TLG were an asshole (& -he is not), he provides a TOP NOTCH - FIRST CLASS service here -- that gives MEMBERS the very spore they require. Without a reputable steady sourse of spores - this place would not be anything, like it is. Run one vendor off, then run another off, so on & so forth. You end up with less sponcors, less funds to support this place & one day, one favored vendor can charge members any price he wants, without any competition.
