OT---Justa on Justa below. They banned me yesterday for not following the rules. Then they let me back in. It took one post by Justa this morning that was dripping with sarcasm to some guy named Joe, that led me to label them as a cult. At the same time I asked them to ban me again which they did. I was receiving insulting pm's from the faithful. My message is still there for all to see until it is purged. Justa's quote below is symbolic of cult thinking. Just substitute the name Koresh for Brinker.

"And whether you know it or not, you should thank my sorry butt every day for what I do here because I have
done everything in my power to show Brinker that the majority out there appreciate his work and will stand up for
him in an effort to have him feel comfortable in continuing doing what he does best and do what he enjoys in life
with as little interference as possible."

Tony, off-topic messages violate SI's terms of use. Most of the time, people tolerate them, but when it threatens to turn into a war, then I think the line should be drawn.
