    Just goes to show you that "a select few" of the regulars that think their longetivity makes them impervious to getting the ban hammer applied and act as such. If you're going to play with fire (talking smack to a mod), expect to get burnt.

    Oh yeah. Already thought about it. Can think of at least 2 ways it could have been avoided. Both are fine, i like one a lot more.

    My thought? Anyone that takes delight in the ban should be banned.

    ^^^I know that Joe was getting the exact same kind of garbage sent his way. The reason he was upset is that nobody was taking his reporting of events seriously, and that warnings were handed out to those of us DOING the reporting on this guy...

    Do not feed the trolls. They will eventually wander off to another forum, looking for fresh meat.

    Why someone spends their days "picking online fights" I'll never know, but we have to take the high road and ignore them completely or just delete all pm's from said person(s). That's the only sure cure for a troll...

    Must be nice to have that much spare time.

    Gotta ask this one...

    Is there ANYTHING we can do to convince the powers that be to bring Joe back? There must be something we can do.

    You can think rskarvan and company for the way things are now. This all comes down from Polk where nobody is safe anymore if they choose to push the envelope. The alternative is they shut the forum down. For people to blame Doro is idiotic.

    Whether y'all choose to acknowledge, in your versions of reality, the fact that Joe took aim and went at a mod or not is irrelevant.

    Regardless of the latest reason, apparently this was enough to warrant the ban.

    If you don't like it, everyone can leave as well and connect with him on another venue (someone mentioned facebook, or whatever).

    Pissing and moaning here isn't going to accomplish anything other than letting others see you piss and moan about something you have zero control over.
