I just read on the RI forum of the "other board" where he claims he got banned here.

Couple things.

For starters, banned or not (which I will get into in a moment), it does absolutely no good to go and keep up the attacks on him or from him. So please, lets give that a rest.

I asked Bill what I should do in his case based on the amount of trouble that goes down, both the trouble caused by him and the trouble directed at him - sometimes justified and sometimes not. I asked him what I should do because things could not continue the way they were going. He suggested that banning him for a while would be the right way to go. A difficult decision for both of us I am certain but I put up with a lot more because of him and by him, as as other members and the moderators here, than necessary. Not fair and not fun. But his suggestion and I agreed.

So, don't let Bill get everyone all hot and bothered that he is getting "censored" for his opinions as he is not. He is having his posting privileges indefinitely removed. Subtle difference but there is a difference. He is no longer posting due to the fights and antics that goes down. Not as he states, his opinion.

It is not his "opinions" getting banned or censored. Nor is it, as he states "I guess its only a certain few who are allowed to have opinions anyway, thats that". We probably under censor here to a fault. So again - it is not "opinions" but the personal attacks that causes a lot of the unneeded flame wars to break out. It is the the fights and the attacks. And that cuts both ways, just because he is not posting here, it does not mean that it is OK to take shots at him.

In a nutshell, the personal attacks stop now. This winter has been a lot crappier than it needed be and I am personally sick of it.

Your the boss ;;

I may noY agree with everything or everyone >. buts that,s natural / between people / especially a bunch of half/crazed fishermen that are on the dowmside of a long winter ;;

I,m 100% behind you John /as far as /he has no priviliges & can,t defend himself ;;
So IMO you can like or dislike anyone / but name calling / bashing / putting down /or any other way you want to call it >>of a person >.no matter who it is / S/B reason for immediate loss of priviliges // && that,s towards someone that can respond .. but even the idea to start trashing someone /no matter who ..that has no right to reply or defend themselves only shows everyone on the site //// active & lurkers ?>>>>>>>>>>>>...who the real ass . hol es are :;;;


PS >.I gues s some people don,t have mirrors or memories // or is it that they choose to judge others & not themselves ;;;

this use to be a fun site :::: Bigger isn,t always better //
damn shame too /;

ENJOY WHAT YOU HAVE !!!
