    It seemed to me there were other problems in the past.

    Yep. I'm aware of them. There's lots of people still active today that have had problems in the past, and have still engaged in personal battles in recent history.

    I have no idea what happened or why hearingimpaired got banned, and it's really none of my business. All I know is he helped me more than once when it came to answering questions and making educated decisions, and for that I thank him. And everyone else here who has helped me burn this hole I have in my wallet ;)

    You can call it whatever you want, it doesn't matter.......the fact is he's banned and whining about it will not do anything to change that.

    Actually that's not true. I have sent a pm to Al Ballard (screen name kab) objecting to this ban of Joe and have asked him to re-consider Mark's decision. For those that don't know Al is Mark's boss so to speak and may in fact have the power to reverse this decision. I don't call that zero control nor do I call it "pissing and moaning". I call it doing what's right.

    I highly doubt you're the only person to do so, either.

    For those of you that would like to do the same, please pm me for the email address and I will forward it to you. I would post it in open forum, but caution must prevail given the circumstances...

    Just was wondering if you're the spokesperson for the mods?
    Everyone has there opinion and has the right to address it.

    I would hope that Al would stand behind any of Mark's decisions, as I assume he was handed the keys to the castle for some good reasons. I have nothing against Joe, as he has always been very cordial with me. But I'm going to trust that Doro did what he felt was in the best interest of the Forum. It's shocking for sure, but who knows all the facts?
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    The more you guys complain to Polk the sooner this forum gets to being shut down when they decide it isn't worth the headache. Choose not to believe it, I don't care, but this stuff comes down from Polk.

    You guys are doing more damage than good.

    Actually, no one has 'rights' on this privately owned board, other than the right to follow the rules, and Polk has the right to invoke / revoke memberships as they see fit.

    Period. Its JUST audio guys, not rocket science. Get back to the fun stuff.
