Banishment
Hey! Any chance of me getting unbanned? I have been out of action
since February (I think), so I have lots of anecdotes and observations
stored up. Anyway, the banishment was not due to anything I
said/posted as far as I know. I am NOT promising to "make nice",
but will try to confine my "venting" to those who have it coming.
I am in Texas right now (and my computer is sick). Should be home by 9-24.
Soooooooooo, what do I do? You know you missed me

I'm sensing mixed messages here.
Not getting enough attention at home or at Raddr's board?

Re: Banishment
Hi Johnny! Great to see you back again! I'm sure everyone is looking forward to seeing the same five stories and BS repeated over, and over, and over again!
All done beating your wife or have you finished casting off the income stream now that she cant work anymore?
I'll be thrilled to post the PM she sent me under your account. It made for very entertaining reading.
Hey SG...you cant trade a franchise player...the price is far too high...
Okay, time to recede back into the depths............

Re: Banishment
I know I said in a previous post that he would be back when he starts collecting his social security benefits, but I think it was part of a JG thread that got deleted during the hacking fiasco.
Anyway, it happened.

JG, in what way are you banned? Even if your old account has been disabled, you should be able to create a new one, right?

Correcto! - He was never banned. - His Account was frozen because it was Highjacked. - Just register again. You can probably register with a JohnGalt1 or 2 or 3 or 4 etc...................

Although we are getting closer to Halloween and the OP could have just been trying out a JG trolling costume.

What C-T said.
I've sent the same message 2-3 times to where JG was posting elsewhere - no replies.

Why would you do this? Do we seem short of ill-informed, lunatic balderdash?
