I personaly feel that this list has out lived it's usefullness and is now causing a massive rift in the very fabric of MiNDS>.

Ditto.

You Should be pulling together now NOT ripping each other to pieces infront of the whole Exec. and the SU. That's why I'm asking Cian to end the list now before things really get ugly.

Hm. I don't want to end the list. I'd rather the people involved in the silly argument would get together and talk about it. But hey, maybe I'm too nice and optimistic. ;o)

As the SU Societies officer I have to point out that this kind of infighting can only make the society look worse in what are very testing times for it.

Damn right. Many people have said this all along. We don't need this kind of internal strain at this point, and I'm very disappointed to see the people involved maintain it. Some apologies and compromises all around would be a Very Good Thing. Please sort this out, people - have a meeting, figure out what will make everyone happy, and try to understand where each person involved is coming from.

Please stop and think of what this is doing to the society and just take a few steps back to reflect and calm down.

Yup. Deep breaths. Think before writing. All of our efforts should go into saving the society, and that includes patching up these internal problems. Please be calm. As to the list, I don't think it's a good idea to destroy it, as it is a place where we can still communicate; without it, many of us can't keep up-to-date on what is happening. That said, if arguments such as those so far continue, I will make this list moderated and ask people to move such content to private mail. Not sure that that would help, of course - I'd prefer if everyone could try to make friends again. Hmm, and sometimes I think I'm not an idealist. :o) Cian -- "there is nothing wrong /* Cian with emulating a man ** I need to sleep. Let me sleep. who has a nice beard" */ while(student);
