Does anyone miss Lakers Fan?
 

I certainly do.

I allways foung his posts interesting.

TM

What is going on with him? Is he doing ok or do you know?

Hi Manuel

I had noticed his absence unless he has changed his handle??

There is so much politics on this forum, understandbly, just now - maybe he is having a vacation from it.

On the politics front I am thoroughly bored with our little Scottish Independence Referundum and we have another 2 years to go.:roll:

The USA, to an interested outsider, just finishes with one Presidential election and then the next campaign seems to start almost immediatel

Isn't he heading to Bermuda - LF doesn't tag his upcoming cruises.

He was around last week. He "liked" a couple of my posts

He is doing OK. He is not able to post at this time.

TM

When you do the crime, you gotta do the time.:wink: I'm sure he will be back soon.

Hi Manuel

Let LF know, I for one look forward to his return.

Annie

I will do that.

TM

Sometimes no crime is commited and an inocent person still does the time.

Lakers Fan may not be back so soon.

TM

Sadly that's not the case here. Severl warnings were given for breaking the rules, and he chose to ignore them.

Rather he chose to publicly argue the points on our boards.

He received a suspension. Not a lifetime ban (as he tried to say).

There are rules, and they apply to everyone. No one can simply do and say whatever they want on the message boards. No one has any right to come in and tell the site what the rules should be.

You can't attack other posters at will, and you can't argue the rules when you've been told you broke them.

It would be unfortunate if Laker's Fan decided not to return to be a part of this community. But, if so, it simply means he is unwilling to respect our rules of the road. That is his choice to make.

Ahhhh! So, Manuel spun the question eh? Made it appear as if LF was in need.

He was in need of moral support.
I don't get involved in what rules Kuki is talking about.
I am not a moderator.

PS. I do hope that Lakers Fan does post again

Manny, don't get me wrong, I am not hating on you or anybody... just amused that is all.
:roll:

I did not feel hated at all. The way I see it you are allways a fair person.

TM

Some time life gets in the way,and sometimes, it's for good things..your sunny posts have been missed....!

I agree with Trip. I missed you too.

Your posts were missed for sure.

TM

That's great news.

TM

Robin, has hubby finally pulled the pin? I hope so!

How long is he in time out?

We need him in the football pool

He can post now, if he is so inclined.

I hope that he does.

TM

Yes he did in June!

Thank You ,Manuel

When I joined CM my screen name was Canarsie43 .However I forgot my password and re-registered as Henry 43 . During the 10 day ban I discovered that Canarsie 43 was still usable and I used it to explain that I was banned ,thus causing an additional 2 days .

Well, that's an "interesting" interpretation of events :)

First off I'll address your post under user name Canrasie 43. That post ONLY addressed a complaint about Paul and the way he chooses to manage the message board policies.

NOWHERE in that post did you mention getting banned, or that you were posting about your "other user name" Lakers Fan. Nor did you even identify yourself as Lakers Fan.

We keep all questionable posts in a folder that all staff can see. All of the posts that were deleted, and posts you were given warnings about are there.

No posts are ever deleted because of political views (in the Open Debate forum). However, personal attacks are infractions; whether the personal attacks are made against other posters, or moderators and staff.

After the initial infractions were given, you simply continued to complain about receiving them, in your posts.

If anyone wants to question the policies of how the message boards are operated, they are free to do so via private email.

However, for people to assume they are free to do so on our message boards only proves a lack of understanding of the rules, and shows disrepect for a site (and it's established rules) that is provided to you to use free of charge.

Infraction points expire after 12 months.







You were in fact given several warnings before you were given any infractions. After receiving

Laker's Fan, I wanted to post and wish you well in whatever you decide to do. It has not always been easy communicating with you, but I did learn something, so that's a good thing.

Take care, and God Bless

Soon there will be nobody left, and no reason to post.
The moderators can talk amongst themselves.
