He was way over the top and ignored advice given to him,however 6 yrs is rather too much.Personally I think it was a Clash of Ego,s and John Lost.

and I'm nodding too!!!! :-D :-D baaaa humbug :-P

Lol Ann.....winding him up?......I think you will find it was the other way round.....You must have missed a few threads and posts.....but I shan't argue with you cos I likes yer :-D and we shouldn't really be talking about the sainted one behind his back anyway....even though he is probably looking in and wishing he could reply :-D

Well you know what they say Wend, great minds think alike :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D

LaG - possibly ;-) :-D :-D :-D

*nods in agreement with Wend*

Wend, I wonder if I am thinking the same member that deserves banning ;-) :-D :-D :-D

No of course he was no saint, he could be like an irritating mosquito buzzing in and out. But the boards were more interesting when he was around. I am not saying he didn't deserve a ban, I can't as I didn't see what obviously started all the aggravation, what I am saying is that 6 years is unrealistic and silly, where did that figure come from?

Oh and no doubt there will be a smug comment at some time from the person/people who delighted in winding him up.

Perhaps bets should be taken to see if he comes back sooner :-D

Like I say Nolls....we don't know if anything else was said behind the scenes.....I don't think I have seen anything as bad for a while......Maybe he was having an off day.....but it wasn't nice to witness....Perhaps an apology to all around may help.....but maybe he doesn't want to be on here.

True Susan John was no saint .....But heck there are quite a few on here that are just as bad and would go on his threads with the purpose of Looking for trouble I would be reading his threads (yes sometimes they were challenging) but more than often I couldn't see why there was an argument (OK maybe I'm slow).... Ban ? OK! But not 6 yrs

On the face of it GlossyAnn No!.....but we don't know the full story or anything that may have gone on behind the scenes.

As for the weird length of ban......maybe the person who banned him has 6 years left in their contract and is leaving him for someone else to sort out when they leave GR .....who knows!

John was OTT the other day and nothing would stop him.....I do wonder if others weren't so against the person/s John was annoying, if they would be so pro John if it was them he was irritating beyond the pale......Yes He was a great wordsmith but allowed bitterness to creep in and spoil the words that were sometimes golden.....Only John himself can know why he decided to go over the top.....perhaps he doesn't want to be a member......or perhaps there is a deeper cause.......But a Saint he ain't!

AnnC :-D :-D :-D

there's someone alright - someone with a very devious and disarming mind

Now I wonder who is in the running to take his place! all those folks who love to have a go will be having with drawl symptoms :-D :-D

Free the GR one - like that Joy :-D :-D :-D

I'm also gong to contact GR and speak on his behalf

Ok Susan wiv but 6 years is that justified? :-S

Sheesh!.....anyone would think he was a saint! .....He asked for it and saw it coming.....Isn't that right John?

Six years! Unbelievable ! As has been said Six of One - Half a Dozen of an Other. I read the boards but really don't want to add very often as there are plenty still on the Boards who are just as bad.

it sure was Kay haha :-D :-D

i was even given a date to return
I think it was the 29th of September or maybe January in 99 years time

but I do love a sense of humour ;-) ;-)


Free the GR one :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D
