If I am not mistaken zonkie said, "If you want to ban Richnorth, go ahead."
To me, all this asking for a vote is a waste of time and it smacks of pretence. This is bad, very bad! As the leader of the thread, it is you who must take charge.
Frankly, I don't give a damn if I am banned or not. I don't have any compulsion to have to keep on posting on this thread as if my dear life depends on it. It might interest you to know, prior to all this storm in a teacup and making a mountain out of a molehill, I had planned on posting less and less on the internet in general because I will be very busy preparing for a chess tournament and studying a foreign language.
I started posting here by chance and, regardless of what others may say or have said, I believe I have made in a mere two months enough contributions that have much content in them. One catty bitch, however, complained I made too little contribution. Well, how much contribution can one make in a short 2 months? Yet some thought I have made one post too many! By contrast, the liar ILCUL8R who said I wasted his time, made less than 3 posts per month over 8 years!
I believe the VERY FEW members here (uhm, only 9 after so much furor!) who want me banned are those who are narrow-minded, ignorant, humourless, fearful of coming face to face with the truth on some issues, even jealous, or they are simply petty, mean-spirited, arrogant and presumptuous and generally intolerant of other people's views that are at variance with theirs. Hhmmm, of that 9, I believe a few were probably strong-armed or arm-twisted into....... and they are too embarrassed to show who they are! LOL. With that said, Steve, you are liberty to make up any number you want and put the blame on them. LOL
At times, it seems those VERY FEW members want this thread to be one where all members sing Halleluias and Hosanas to the blessed trinity --- the US + Israel + Democracy --- all day long. and anything else will not be tolerated regardless of its merits! LOL
PS. So far I have across only three level-headed ones, Nadine, Peter and Zonkie. . |
