The people who have been banned in the past were the biggest pains in the rear on the forum, to me. They all had many warnings and knew exactly what they were doing when acting the way they did. So, Three years back it was me or them and well....they are gone. It changed the complexion of the place for the better, at least to me.
Concerning the Net54 banquet...that might not be a bad suggestion, I might ask Brent about speaking at the dinner. I just don't know how unlimited alcohol and those discussions might go. .. Dunno, gotta think about that.

GeoPoto probably needs his/her name out here, per the rule in bold at the top of every page, or he/she can edit their post above.

I know my opinion means little to nothing but please do not do that. I see no way it could end but badly. The national should be fun.

Will there be a question and answer period if Brent speaks?

It would be up to him but why not? As long as the banquet stays civil. I think him speaking is a long shot but I guess you never know.

The reasons why not are all too apparent, unless he is truly delusional.

I don't know, with his confidence and delusions of grandeur I could see him thinking he could pull this off. Would be a very interesting evening.

I won't be there, but for me it would be a tradeoff between not attending out of disgust, and wanting to see the train wreck.

I would certainly enjoy attending this banquet, although I am not the most active poster I do read the posts everyday and love hearing about all the great items alot of you have, almost embarrassed by my collection after joining Net54, but has also inspired me to pursue more of my collecting goals. I live close to Rosemont and havent missed a show there in 10 years to include the National when it is held there and all the Sun Time shows and now its called the Chicago Sports Spectacular and I to every show ( Nov, Mar, June)
So I hope to meet alot of you on here

Didn’t Dougie speak at one of these? Or John Rogers? If Brent goes I’ll be there with a tape recorder.
