Thanks. I did not mind him for the first 900 posts, but the last 100 became very tiresome, and not the type of stuff I come here to read.

Well, I tried to be nice to him but he just didn't know when to shut up. I was going to make a pathetic joke about my Heiny but I just couldn't do it.

Default Ode to Zone 91

Just ten thirty five and his posting was done
The yelling had stopped although no one had won

He jousted with members, in two threads per day
While some of us wished that he’d just go away

He did try that once in post seven five one
The yelling had stopped although no one had won

He quickly returned on that very same day
And then, true to form, he had something to say

Intensified rants were his true tour-de-force
The yelling resumed and we all knew the source

He stepped up his game when attacking the board
While making an illness his own shield and sword

Our members revolted, their numbers did swell
The yelling got louder; we all know too well

Quite furious posts while exposing his soul
When making his point with the tact of a troll

Truly, I'm glad that new days have begun
The yelling has stopped and our forum has won

- Eric



P.S. Leon, thanks. You have the patience of Job. I truly appreciate everything you do for the hobby. In my opinion, your contributions go far beyond this board. And you do one hell of a job here, too, by the way. Just my opinion.

Eventually, you stop feeling bad for the goldfish and just pull the handle.

Do we need to put an ad on Craig's list to fill his position?

Adrian needs to sit in the back and not raise his hand...EVER! The speed of light is faster than the speed of sound, that is why some people appear bright, until you hear them speak.

Maybe we need an official Net54 "Zone91" award akin to the Cy Young award. Like Cy's 511 wins, this one will stand the test of time.

One thing I am thankful for on this board that seems to be lacking across the street is the absence of alts/trolls. Certain banned members over there just seem to create new ID's and they are off to the races again, just trying to cause trouble. That doesn't seem to happen over here (knock on wood).

Thank you Leon for being fair and giving him a shot, but an even bigger thank you for his removal. Enough was enough.

Looks like Zimmermann was 'sick' of it as well.

Oh, it can happen over here. Not that often because they get weeded out rather quickly. Sometimes it's a vigilante. Ergo, always look both ways before crossing the street. Here's my Young port. Postem'/Smokem' if you gottem':
