So you said "no thank you"... :hide:

When Rusty was born and they were passing out looks, he thought they said books so he said "make mine a funny one!".
 
PG,
I am sure I could track down these people on the other forums if I so desired. I was actually having some good convos with them outside the threads. They did come across as a little thin skinned. You may not remember this, but I let some stuff fly in a thread early on in my time here that resulted in a deleted post and an admonishment from the mods (Dawg I think..). Like was already said, sometimes you have to be here a while to find your place. You post a lot, the mods get a feel for how far you will take things and a little more leeway is offered. Pushing the envelope right away is surely going to get your hand slapped because they don't know what your limits are yet. Again, I don't know these people from anywhere else and can only base my opinions on what I saw. You have obviously seen them around and know we are better off without them. I am a glass half full guy and want to rehabilitate them... :bonk:

In short .............. All we did was ask for a little less in your face. It was a third and forth post that were really objectionable for a "new" member (although if intro'ed correctly I think we could have lived with it). Forum members are guests, would you go to a dinner party as an outsider and spew such filth on your 3rd sentence? I think not ........... but at the weekly poker game? ..... I think so.

I did send out an olive branch and I also indicated that this forum is not anything goes. If they assume they should be able to say anything, they can assume their absence is welcome.

I never doubted whether or not it was handled correctly. And it goes back to my thin skin comment... if they are not mature enough to handle a little admonishment, then they certainly won't fit in here.

I just wanted to clarify a little about how it was handled. I didn't take it as a admonishment to admin. Most of you know how dictatorial we are ................. :yum:
 
Wait, this is an introduction thread for a guy that is banned and it is on it's way to 100? Just aint right.
 
He's still showing up as a junior member for me Mak. I think he simply took his ball and went home ....he was not banned.
 
So, gets his feelings hurt and runs off?
Yeah, PG makes me think of another forum that had a lot of 'wankers' on it.

Which is why those of us experienced (not so proudly) when dealing with such can recognize IT almost immediately.
Glad you're here Jeff, along with the other refugees I invited to this forum. :flowers:
 
Just look at his comments in his & the other 2 friends of his & its obvious he was here only to start a stink , looks like he did a perty good job to me :whistling:
