Although I haven't been on this forum long, I have been here long enough to agree with this sentiment. Being constantly victimized by someone who really doesn't bring any sort of value to this place, I honestly would like to see him permanently gone as well. At the same time, I admire the staff for handling things as they have. They have a tough job to do and it is more often than not, a thankless one. The staff here can not make all of the people happy all of the time. Hard decisions have to be made and this was one of them. It's been two weeks, so I'm guessing he'll be back later on today. I'm just going to have to prepare myself for the onslaught of insults, put-downs and rudeness that I've come to expect from a few here. I'll carry on as I have been but perhaps finally utilizing that block feature.
Thank you whateverist for your courage to speak the words that I'm quite sure, many of us here would like to have said. It takes guts.
Thank you to the staff for all you do. I'm glad you're all here to make those tough calls and withstand the onslaught of harsh opinions. It takes guts.
