I've known Matt long enough to know the following: 1. He's not prone to capricious deletions. If his reasons for deleting the post aren't known to you, ask him. On iHub. 2. He has taken a lot of heat for and likely still wants your presence on iHub. The whole "balance" thing. He knows as well as I do that the whole community is best served when there are opposing points of view present. I very seriously doubt the deletion of your post was for it being "negative". If that were the case, most of your posts would be gone. 3. He's nowhere near as inflexible as I am. I think it's easier to reason with him than it is to reason with me. Try discussing it with him. If you're just going to make no attempt at resolving this with Matt on iHub, and instead complain about it here, you might as well go shop-lift at Price Chopper then go to the nearest Piggly-Wiggly and complain to management and all the customers about how Price Chopper won't let you in the store because they don't like the color of your hair.

Bux, Imagine if Sheriff Matt allowed your iHub membership to return to unsuspended status without any sort of compromise between you two. - If so, then you win & Matt loses. - All Matt want you to do is go through the motions that your postings on the IDCC board have cause the majority of longs to complain, leading to the situation that the board becomes not about IDCC, but the longs versus Bux. - All Matt wants you to do is post on the iHub Jailhouse board that "Yes, i inflamed others with my specific attention towards another that pushed being a long IDCC, and then bailed out." - Thats all Bux, just say that "yes, this happened" and its very much like paying a fine for a bad event without admitting guilt. - Just so you say enough words to convey the message that you understand what happened in a bad way, and you will try and not let it happen again. - mumble jumble empty words meaningless - Then Matt can let you out of jail. - Just DON'T require Matt to say he was "the" error made. doug
