Well, that shocks me that you feel that way. Especially considering the conversations you and I had recently. If that's how you feel, then there is simply no way that we can be of any assistance to you are anyone else with such a mindset.
I recall going through a similar situation with him about this when he let his medical condition slip a couple of years back and some posts got deleted.
As for live chats, you paying members are always able to drop down that forum menu and log on. Hell, we even tried to introduce the idea of IRC awhile back, but it never caught on. I see Okie popped in and out.
Ban him...please. If for no other reason than because he's acting like a little bitch. Let it slip? The guy came on here telling everyone that he joined the Navy...Lie. He then said he was asked to leave because of a certain test gone wrong...probably a lie too. Who the hell knows with this guy? He's a gump...take it all with a shaker of salt.
Adding to an earlier post, I am sure that Brett and the mods all have demanding careers, and managing this forum and its 10000 members is only a small part of their lives. Small part, but demanding. I would think that Brett is doing constant upkeep, behind the scenes. Hell, just managing the different personalities that post here has got to be tough. I feel that Brett and the mods do a good job of managing the board. We may not agree with all the moves they make, but I am sure it is always in the best interest of the board. Something tells me the board just got better, just because of this thread.
