I just heard today that Ratchet has been banned from this site.
I don't like it at all.
What do the rest of you think? ~GoodFella

Can't say I always fully understood Ratchet, but I always enjoyed and pondered his musings and revelations....sleK gave Ratchet a warning in the "Moderators" thread of "Announcements and Information" recently...is that it? Hey, sleK, can ya give the guy a break?

Ratchet and slek were having a running (not a dialogue, not an argument, I don't know what to call it...) exchange and I guess slek just couldn't take it anymore. Ratchet didn't know when to quit, apparently.

So if I understand this correctly if someone does not like your r post they can ban you? Some sight! I thought this was America where you can voice your oppinion. and as far as this sight goes, What was the offense that caused banning? I thought that this was a place to VOICE your concerns and oppinions. Sad

Okay, I wasn't up on all that went on, but just happened to read a little bit of the back and forth that was going on.

Ratchet was pushing and pushing slek for an answer to something, maybe in not the best way. I think he was asking for a chat to be added. Our more diligent readers can correct me if I'm wrong.

But again and again with some kind of insinuations mixed with his poetic writing and finally slek tried to expain in PLAIN english that he does this in his FREE time, that we are still just a small group and it wasn't going to happen right now.

The exchange must have continued from there to a banning. That's my observation, and I will gladly be corrected by someone who knows better. But it was Ratchet's constant insinuations that slek was shortchanging us and his constant demanding of an answer to why not, that might have done it.

I'm sure if I had just written a post asking if we could have a chat room, in plain english, that slek would have answered me back in a civil manner, same as he did Ratchet. But Ratchet kept on and on and on with his poetic insinuations of ... what?

Sorry Ratchet, if you're reading this and I got this stuff all wrong. We're still on the same team and I regret you got booted. Hope you'll be back soon.

And as far as this being America, terminator, yes it is, but we are guests on someone's site. We're not the ones paying for it or doing the work. We shouldn't bite the hand that feeds us, so to speak, and that was kinda what Ratchet was doing.

He's the last person I figured would be booted for anything. Ratchet's a good man with a good heart. Just hope that slek would see it in his heart to bring Ratchet back.

WOW! That was rather profound! I shudder to think what that response would have been had this site been hosted in Finland. I bet Santa Claus would get the blame. Neutral
