From Oleg Volk:
At the start of this week, I asked Derek to make the database of armedpolitesociety.com available to my designates for backing it up to other servers. He dragged his feet but promised to make it available on Thursday. That didn’t happen.
When I called him, he said that he was busy. It’s the same claim he made to THR staff. Asked when he would make APS database available, he said: “I talked to a couple of moderators on THR and I think it should be part of the whole settlement with THR. I won’t release it.”
Feel free to publicize this event.
I own armedpolitesociety.com domain name, so I can move the forum. I would prefer to move it with the current content intact. My lawyer will be in contact with his.
I really wanted to believe that there were two sides to this issue. Experience has shown me that disagreements that seem cut-and-dried rarely are, so I was willing to solicit input on the situation from both sides. Continued...
