In extremely short hand.
If anyone doubts at all that JayB style scything and demeaning commentary keeps people away from this board...don't.
From the time I came here first perhaps 2 1/2 or so years ago, JayB and Gil were on my a*& big time, and in fact did manage to run me off for perhaps 6 or so months. Weirdly enough, at that time JayB loved to exhort his efforts and claimed proudly his ability to run people off was in fact the VICTIM'S fault, that if they weren't able to hang around and be castigated and made mockery of - well they just weren't strong enough for this world.
I must have read him write that sentiment 30 times in 2 years. And he chuffed and lorded over it, even as the extraordinary mean spirited nature of his posts poured forth, and as apologists on this board wrote amazingly of admiring his 'straight shooter'ness' and 'telling it like it is'.
What a bunch or bull dust.
He told it like HE SAW it.
Not how it is.
But all along claiming virtue, and moral high ground, and not once did I see signs of a truly morally virtuous human being.
He was nothing but rude, and condescending, and bullying through it all, while currying a couple of friends on the board to share his venom with.

And perhaps, once ever 8-10 weeks he'd show his zeenut Jim Thorpe, and every other month make some semi-useful suggestion to someone. Outside of that, he was a malicous canker whose 'charming candor' - whilst () appreciated by Joann and a couple others, ABSOLUTELY scared off many other board members and read as nothing but school yard bravado. He, in my opinon, was 100% one of those people who would have been smacked in the mouth by any number of people (including myself) if he said to their face what he typed about them on this board, and surprise surprise - by private email. Yes, that's right, he was a player in that regard too.


Tim, and others who wonder if he had really reached a threshold.....
He reached it several times over, and it was only because you might not have been the target of his abuse that you might find contrary argument to his banning. No one, I will state with absoluteness no one, would have taken the number of shots Leon has from this guy - and just lived with it because this is America and people can say whatever they want.

The guy was pure muck in my opinion, committed the 'Dorskind' act 100's of times over, just never so long windedly. Glad he's got his own aimoo box to stand on somewhere else so he can share that special personality with others who tolerate that 'quirky' kind of vicousness.

There, just my O.
