I can't imagine such a fine, upstanding citizen getting banned. What happened?

Whaaaattt? Say it isn't so. I thought it was something serious like a really good pissing match I missed over the weekend.

Well, if there was a fight of some kind, I'd hate to think I missed all the excitement.

I'm going to go out on a limb and post here - since Hattie is away at the moment and I know people are wondering.

There was a fallout with an OD moderator involving several members. JD and Ernesto were given temporary bans. The reasons involved are personal and it is not my place to share them. Don't PM me, I won't answer there either.

If people want to know more, then ask JD or Ernesto by e-mail or wait until they return. Making a big deal of things won't help - OD has been closed in the past during election times due to conflicts and ongoing fights.

So best bet is to simply let it go, and I would wager our good friends may return sooner than expected. That's all I can say.

Thanks,
C.

Here's the real insider's scoop. It's part of the Vast Wing-Free Conspiracy.

JD, Ernesto, and I are tag-teaming to see how many bans we can accumulate individually and as an aggregate. So far JD is kicking our butts. However, Ernesto is in hot pursuit of glory and I wont count him out. I am taking a different approach: My goal is to see how many infractions and bannings I can get that make no sense. I believe I am leading the pack on those scores.

The entity formerly known as MedMech was a real contender until he changed his handle. It is between Spock and Kirk Vining who takes the laurels for being banned under the most noms de plumes.

Medmech was never banned or even given an infraction, Howie OTOH see's an infraction from time to time.

Edit: Medmech was even complimented on his internet forum Ninja like abilities to avoid watching the adversary self destruct into millions of XXX's and 0's.

That was one hell of a persona.

I prefer the G-Spot, but any port in a storm.
