You've said
this more often. I've not commented on it until now (I think), but I always took it as a metaphorical phrase. To me, you seem to mean, "I'm the one most active". That's how I read it -- for almost everywhere you've said it, there
were other people active -- and you must've seen that.
I think I read a sort of bold pride in it, and/or a sort of challenge from you -- "c'mon guys, match my output, let's get (even?) more life into this forum!"
(If my assumptions are wrong, please correct me!!)
But I can see how the metaphorical, but literally visible, phrase of "I'm the only one" might hurt some people a bit ("sting" them?), since other people do participate as much as they can, want, or need to. That's their prerogative, and they're entitled to a fair share of respect and appreciation for their efforts, too. Sometimes, it
may seem from what you write, that you don't appreciate other people's efforts.
But I think that you do, in reality. Incorrect?
Why do anymore if you are going around messing with my topics. (...) So I'm sore to say boffo you are now clearly my foe. You rather have dead forums with little bits of life than active forums.
I don't think that's true, as I've said before. Boffo doesn't seem to me -- at all -- to be restraining you; but he does call you on a "messy" forum. I don't think that your ideas are
ever being deleted or otherwise made to disappear.
Mods like Boffo, however, have an idea of how these forums run smoothest, and are the easiest readable for everyone. It's their personal (but communal) idea, granted -- but they're the mods, after all. And they do listen to other people's input, it seems.
But again -- they/he do(es) not censor you. They do not want to see you leave. Boffo does compliment / thank you for your diverse and ample input! Please see that also!

I do see myself as a follower, mostly, at least on this forum. And indeed, I follow you where DCs are concerned.
I don't think there's anything wrong with being a follower. Conversely, if there are too many leaders, trouble ensues.
Which we may see here.
You have the
character of a leader (which shows) -- but Mods
are (in a way) leaders of the forum. (Yet they also follow the wishes of the general populace of the forum, where needed.)
However...

... don't do that, please.
I don't want to divide my time, energy and attention (with all of those deficient enough as they are!
) across different places. That is the (only) reason I did not yet attend the Discord/Dojo; and it would be the reason for me to not keep track of a second place about this game. I'd lose your input and ideas. I'd miss that.
(But that's just my personal opinion and feeling -- you must first do what is best for you and second what's good for the community in general; and only third, bear my wishes in mind if you're so inclined.
)
Please, just find a way to accept Boffo helping you out in keeping the place tidy so that other, less dynamic, people (which are
most of us! But that's on you -- you're just
extremely active!
) can still find their way here.

Okay, sure. I guess the 20+ threads you've started where they've not commented anything have just been swing and misses?
Hmm, well... I don't have input on all of Disco's topics, indeed, no. Also, I don't have time to give input on everything. And that should be fine.
However, on one hand, it should be OK to occasionally swing a-miss; and OTOH, it might be handy to also be able to restrain yourself a bit, Disco.
You indeed put others to shame sometimes, making this forum a one-man show. Which it shouldn't be -- others might participate a bit more, and you might participate a bit less. A
bit. For me, that certainly includes, "do not STOP participating, please".
People have been giving you hints about all this --
aside from complimenting you on how creative you are.
Cherish the one -- and learn from the other.
But now, on-topic and most importantly;
ANY NEW VERSION of Data should have SCIENCE!
I've said it before. He's the only thing that goes for a chief science officer in any of the TNG episodes (except for
Nella Daren and some few other 1-shot guest personnel); and he's good at it. He sciences the crap out of any possible obstacle; give the android some more 1e Science skill, please!
Aso, good to play with his attributes a bit, but not too much. And keeping them 8/12/12 is, conversely, a bit too strict adherance to existing situations.
