and here is another one from yahoo.com:


http://sports.yahoo.com/news/federer-clings-legacy-battered-us-open-160354445--ten.html





they are all writing him off. that is exactly what is going to motivate him to come back strong in 2014.

I don't think he is ready to leave the game.

Hi all. And by that i mean all 4 of you. :p

Very confused about everything., really so been thinking about things the last few days. I thought Tennis Frontier was safe and we were meant to be there forever but how quickly things change, don't they? There's so much I want to say but unfortunately I am just back from the eye doctor and she's given me eye drops, so things are still blurry for me. Can barely read things let alone type a post.

So in a nutshell, I really like Owen and his forum; however, things felt really tight and controlled lately and while I agree that every new forum needs to go through a lot experience before they come to realize how it should uphold its reputation, I am not sure if I have time for that. I need freedom from the get go. I told him just last week in a PM that I was really getting tired of being on new forums, because this also means having to adjust all their new rules and their posters, who can be quite judgmental btw and it does take a lot of time to overcome that and establish yourself as a good and reliable poster. Also, this is happening during USO and despite Andy's marvelous win at Wimbledon, I had a nasty experience at T4U (as you all know) as soon as I came back to the forum, so once again  I've become very unsure of things but more importantly, I so need to focus on Andy during this time that I really and truly cannot go through all this drama.

So I am still very confused and basically waiting for the USO to be over so that I can finally decide as to what to do. Should I stay or should I leave the forum thing all behind me.

I had it all very well said in my head really but I think that  ^^ came out a bit scattered.

herc or Slasher, is it possible to have the left column (where it has the Members, Stats, Users etc.) across the board at the top of page? That way we don't have to scroll right and also, it would look nice and neat. Isn't that the way other forums are?

Anyway, I am not sure if I should be demanding so much on my 2nd post here. :p

herc, I got your PM last night  but since I thought I was going to be here today, so I'd reply here. As to the first one, I was thinking about things and also wanted to see where things were going as it all seemed quite unsettled. I believe you could have handled the matter better but at the same time, I could also see why you'd be so angry. There's no point making you and Javi the mod and not give you any real power. that really and truly defeats the purpose. Also, that meant they didn't trust you enough. And the deal they offered later after all hooplas had the freedom of much less moderation but it came at the expense of the Castle taking a backseat and that didn't make any sense. They could have left it at the front page and called it Frontier Castle Chat or something. That way they could have maintained their own brand and the Castle would have had its own identity.

The idea of a Castle is a very open and it needs all its freedom to fully exercise its all possibilities but unfortunately, it just wasn't there from the get go. I wish Owen could see that and had a better conversation with both tented and Moxie. That way I am sure we would have all had something that would have made everyone happy. But alas, that probably wasn't meant to be.

I was personally very disturbed when Slasher's post re: a poster's death at MTF got deleted. I was quoting his post  at that time to show my condolences, but I couldn't do it only to realize a minute later that the original post was deleted right away. That felt inhuman. How can you not allow the news of a poster who had just died? There are some things in life where the news should be spread right away so that we cal all show our respect and this news was one of them. I found it as extreme moderation almost cult like. However I don't feel at all either Owen or tented are mean spirited people or anything; quite the contrary in fact, but it just came out in dead wrong manner. Yes, we have rules that we need to obey but we are also human beings so we should know better as to how to use our discretion.

In any case, I don't have any bitter feelings towards anyone or anything. I just later thought it was never meant to be and sounded too good to be true from the start. We all still have a lot to learn.

good to see you Emma.

at last we are at a place which belongs to us.


now nobody can tell us what to do or what to talk about and what not to talk about.


baron and I get along fine. it's all his global mods who do not care about us.

and his 2 partners were tugging at him constantly.

in the end he sided with tented and moxie.

they want total and complete control and they want run their forum like church.


they even went so far as to remove me and javi from mod positions at the castle.


we did absolutely nothing wrong at the castle. they **** it up with their constant meddling.


I guess they were insecure and scared of our success there.


not sure what the best course of action is right now.


at least we are safe here and we are the owners of Camelot.


now we don't have orders from anybody.

we have a little place to stay in touch anyway.


and we will ban any trolls permanently instantly.



I am out on the road right now. It is hard to post with I phone.



anyway Andy started out slow yesterday but got going eventually.

 Baron and I are still friends lady emma.


we need to let some time pass. we could still work out some sort of compromise.


he said I was welcome to post there.



general slasher or general August might be help with your request.


I can't do much with a I phone.


anyway I will be home in 2-3 hours.


I will try to answer your post better when I get home.

No worries about replying if you are still on the road. You are so much on the road sometimes I think of you as door to door sales person. LOLz. I am teasing you!

But did you know? There was a time I really thought Swish was a door to door vitamin sales person. lol. Nothing wrong with that but I just found it really funny. He'd just post vitamin stuff all the time so it had made me wonder about things. lol.

Good match, this Ferru vs Richie but I am pulling for Richie without a doubt.

None of us are bad, herc be it you or I or tented or Owen etc. It's just that the matter was handled in a very wrong way and not in timely fashion either, unfortunately. All they needed to do is just relax the rules a lot as we are all grown ups after all minus Alex. lol. They could have still kept the rules they have now and let the Castle flow. it was such a minor adjustment and yet, it never got done the proper way. And you couldn't just wait and be patient so I have a beef with you too, mind you. Next time, I want you to speak to the Mod you are most friendly with (in this case it was BB) if that ever happens again. So that's something you really badly need to adjust. You are going to promise that to all of us.

I have agree with you Emma.


it is a good learning experience for all of us.



it's all part of growing up and learning from our mistakes.


at least we tried. failure consists only in no longer trying.


there is a very old Chinese proverb: fall down 7 times, stand up eight.
