I saw that and immediately went, "WHAT THE F*CK?!?"

Did something unwanted happen in the correspondent forums or something that caused em to do this?

Yeah...I heard it was coming last week...And while I hate to lose my Correspondent forum access, I can understand why it's happening...Look at how many Correspondents have quit even in the last year...That's a lot of Blue Glowies...And, something not many folks know (but TH did say was ok to talk about), Correspondents now also have set 6 month terms (at the end of which they can reapply or move on to Blue Glowie status). These 6 month term rulestarted just over 4 months ago so we'll be seeing a lot more Blue Glowies popping up in May (one of the reasons I resigned when I did was because I figured my term would have been up DURING CU testing, which would have looked really weird for me to step down then). With so many Blue Glowies out there, this makes things pretty crowded in the Correspondent forum where focus NEEDS to be on Correspondent issues (seems like there are more Blue Glowies making posts in the Corr Forum then Correspondents these days).

There was talk about making Blue Glowies have read only access, but I don't think that worked out...And you know me, I'd have a hard time keeping quiet in that forum without read only access...So, to keep focus on "Correspondent" issues, it makes sense for them to remove our access...Nothing prevents Blue Glowies from once again becoming Correspondents some day.

So like I said, I don't like losing my access, but at the same time, I don't fee like it's a "slap in the face"...just wish there was a better route we could have taken but I totally understand the reasons for it.

On a side note...Blue Glowies will still have their same access to the CU and Sandbox testing and will still not count as "team members" (so LordS and I still don't take up a Commando slot)...I just don't have access to rant directly to the Devs like I once did (guess I'll just have to bring those rants back here...lol)...
