I think PP knows I've gone to great lengths for him too. There is no favoritism here and I'm sorry that only feels that way.
True, but it doesn't make them right either.
Posting style not withstanding, there is "Perception" of some of the things mentioned.

Perception is reality in a lot of cases.

Also, Ron to your point.

When this occurred there were TWO bannings - that showed NO FAVORITISM.

Renda,

They are acting like whiny children ... tell 'em to man up ...

This "flopping" has got to stop ... everytime they feel the tide turning you get a handful of posters w/ their torches looking to lynch those they fear.

Now see, this is the problem.

Because he expresses an opinion he is bitter.

Kinda squelches dialogue.

Thank you MRS!

This is the point I've been trying to make all along.

Somehow, this thread has devolved from a simple question right back to the us vs. them we saw on the stepper thread.

Is this how every thread is going to be from now on? If so, no wonder good posters are leaving.

As a matter of fact, they may simply be stating what they feel is obvious, based upon past experiences. In no way does this mean that they are afraid of you, or being banned. It may mean they have observed previous practices and arrived at a specific conclusion thereafter.

So you start accepting things being stated by others as being obvious and I'll try to do the same.

It's very obvious to me and many others that you are still sore that you were banned when you think it should have been DA only.

I can state what is obvious to me.

I wasn't at all alluding to any bannings.

I was only referring to some of the points PP was mentioning.
I and others see it as well.

What would you have us do, Ron? To be fair?

You wanna talk about 'favoritism'???

I can tell you flat out...you woulda been banned YESTERDAY for talking like you are by the former Admin team.

Does that make you feel any better?
