I don't really (at all actually) know what the significance of the picture he posted is/was but that's the only thing I saw. (the pic of the diapered youngun with the sword) Does it have a connotation that is beyond my internet understanding? Maybe.
I'm aware. I get bony was a liberal crybaby, but I only recall the jew thread where he was offensive. MeM is all the time. I am not too far off myself. Mathematically I don't think any of the 3 of us can be banned otherwise.

No one is mathematically ban proof due to the 'nudge' factor. An unspecified # of negs in an unspecified (but relatively short) amount of time can trigger speed ban according to a post by CliffP a few years ago. How it works with Cliff's more recent moderation protocol is unknown.

I think Cliff has made his point of view cristal clear, Boon has been warned several times about how close he is to being band for pushing the limits of the new moderation policy. He had 2 probations and a couple of last warnings. For all we know, he had a PM exchange with Cliff or another member that violated his last, last warnings? I don't recall seeing any violation? I very briefly searched for a thread that would cause a ban, but gave up. But nonetheless, Boon got under somebody's skin and that made it's way to Cliff.
He made a choice. Was warned several times and then told the next report of breaking the rules would be a ban. SO who banned Boon? He mace a choice and it had consequences. There has been more than one...
Since Nov 4th, the crybabies here have all been Trump supporters.
I'll miss Boondawg.
This is the kind of BS that got him banned. Directed ad hominem attacks. We can argue passionately about a position but attacks without a position are not allowed.

Gandhi said " Be the change that you wish to see in the world."
Which is effectively the same as "Do unto others..."
It's something that I'm always TRYING to follow. My biases, emotions, etc will often get the better of me. I do hope people have noticed a change from me over the past few years. I think I was far more likely to call someone a name out of frustration, but I've tried to be even-keel in my discussions. Not specifically just here, but on a lot of message forums.
I don't have a problem with occasional disagreement. We're all different. What I don't appreciate is the other party trying to rub your face in it. Some individuals simply enjoy being dicks.

Agreed
Calling somebody a crybaby really is not that deep of a cutting insult, directing the remark at a person with examples at the ready vrs a broad brush attack at a WIDE RANGE of people is nothing short of picking fights with others and bigotry.

Who are you attacking now, why don't you man up and call out the names?
I see the actual crybabies of PFF are coming out in full force. You'd think it was one of their friends who got turfed.
Well, seems to me that insulting random masses of people is justified then....... Or maybe not? A look at this thread reveals that nobody has been crying and insulting but you? Outside of simply not knowing why he is gone,, there are 2 other general perspectives and those are: sad to see him gone and a blunt, he knew what he was doing. Personally, I think he wanted to go, but I could be wrong. Besides, you act like you know something about this that we don't? He was "turfed" as in blind sided? A dirty hit?

This isn't the first time he has left the forum, not even the second or the third. Perhaps it wont be his last either but that is up to Cliff There have been several people that have found it difficult to leave and this was the only way they could stop.
Blacktree, I was watching/listening to some much more recent recordings by Dave Mason. He's aged (haven't we all)... but he's still rocking. Here's a kick-ass version of an old Hendrix song. Boonie would approve of this thread diversion.
