Thanks Everyone...

I'm in the catagory of " It doesn't matter either way if he stays" Paul knows who his loyal customers are and those customers know how to get ahold of Paul. Canreef is not needed to either to do business...... Do you notice a third party standing out in the cold here... I do...maybe they should have done more before they lost his spons... " filter switched to on"

I really liked getting updates a day or so after corals came in. The website was never updated like it was here on canreef.

Wow, sad to see it come to this

Personally I am glad that Oceanic Corals will no longer be using Canreef as an advertising media to promote their sales. OC promoting their business was starting to overwhelm the posts on Canreef.

Interesting view; however, without sponsors Canreef would cease to exist. Many customers can't wait for new posts to arrive for livestock, sales, etc....

I personally like being able to interact with Vendors on here. The concept works well. I like this better than having ads randomly insertted between posts in all the threads like some other forums do. (Sorry if this is a little off topic...)

To be fair I think this individual has been out of the country for the last month on personal matters... (if I recall reading correctly)

This is the reason why they're leaving Canreef. He makes a nice post saying thank you for the time here, stated his reasons why he was leaving and that was it. People have been leaving kind messages for him. You on the other hand, while your opinion is still valid, decided that it was necessary to drag this down into another goddamned opinionated ****ing ****ing match. Way to go. Grow the **** up.

Paul, it was good to have you around. I always looked forward to your posts. It was always like Christmas morning when a livestock post popped up. I would enjoy it if you could create a regular mailer to go out to the people who do appreciate your hard work and great products!

Tyler, the real overwhelming posting pattern is the buy/sell forums, which take up more than 50% of new posts anytime I look at the board, but certainly not something to do away with..

OC was a welcome contributor to the board, providing great products previously not available.
Personally, I'm going to harrass Paul until he changes his mind
