Posted By: <b>Julian</b><p>LEON you do a very good job moderating this forum but you dropped the ball here. Chaos did not break any of the forum rules. The forum was becoming disruptive when Chaos posted but that was not his doing. The fault there is yours LEON because for many months you allowed a prominent forum member to make unprovoked personal attacks on Chaos. Others saw this and also saw that it was being allowed by you LEON and they decided to jump in and total anarchy ensued. Had you just nicely asked the prominent forum member to tone it down a little in the beginning then the others would never have jumped in and everything would have been fine. I don't fault the prominent forum member. He seems very insecure and just couldn't handle the idea that Chaos has a superior education. LEON the fault lies on you for not doing anything about the unprovoked personal attacks which are against the forum rules. Remember LEON this person is not a troll. Chaos is a passionate collector and a very active member of this fine forum that you run. Thanks for reading and happy holidays to you and your family LEON.

Of course, we don't agree with your assessment of the situation however you are entitled to your opinion. I will ask that you place your full name and email address next to any future posts you may make. If you had taken the time to fully read the forum rules, instead of simply the portion of the rules you feel supports your point, you would realize that anonymity is not allowed in any sort of a confrontational or controversial post. Nothing personal and thank you for your understanding.<br /><br />Brian McQueen<br /><br />PS...I have a feeling this thread will be short-lived as we've already hashed over this debate in numerous other threads....

Posted By: <b>Jim VB</b><p>Jeff, <br /><br />&lt;&lt;...nothing like what they did to my Froot Loops.....&gt;&gt;<br /><br /><br />Fruit Loops, my butt! They screwed up Frosted Alpha-Bits! After nearly 50 years of success, they started tinkering with success. First, removed the "Frosted" part and go with 0 grams of sugar. Next, get rid of the corn base and go with oats. Then, act surprised when they stop selling and take them off the market!<br /><br />Say it ain't so, Leon!<br />

Petition to Reinstate Peter Chaos
 

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Jim, since when have Alpha Bits had frosting on them? I missed that entire seismic change, apparently. I was always a big Alpha Bits and Honeycombs fan.<br /><br />By the way, besides Froot Loops...my favorite cereal as a kid was Quisp. I hadn't seen it since probably 1970..and then in Bridgehampton this summer I ran across a box. Apparently it's back in very limited locations (not in New York but somehow a box ended up here). I bought it, ran home with it, and ate the entire damn thing while watching a Mets game. Who can forget the great vote between Quisp and Quake?

Petition to Reinstate Peter Chaos
 

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>Ahhh...breakfast cereal, a favorite subject of mine. IMO Froot Loops are about the same that they've always been as far as I can remember. Now they've really screwed up Frankenberry, BooBerry and Count Chocula. They used to have the really small marshmallows which actually tasted like marshmallows. Quisp is still available in my neck of the woods, but it was gone for much of the 1990s.<br /><br />Anyone remember Freakies? Terrible cereal, but great prizes.<br /><br /><img src="http://www.mysteryisland.net/freakies.jpg"> <img src="http://astronit.tripod.com/Fcase.jpg">

Posted By: <b>Larry</b><p>It was my favorite cereal also. You can order it on the internet and have it delivered in bulk from Seattle, but it will cost about $4 per box not counting shipping costs.<br /> There were also two other types of cereal based upon other characters in the Quisp commercials, but I can't remember their names.<br /><br />Does anyone remember how tasty the crunchy (fried) Cheetos were back in the 70s? The powdered cheese they coat them with now isn't half as good. Also, Munchos had a version of their chips called Corn Munchos....man were they good!

Petition to Reinstate Peter Chaos
 

Posted By: <b>Joe D.</b><p>your feelings about picking and choosing threads that interest you is spot on accurate.<br /><br /><br /><br />the missing part of your reasoning: the threads should be ON TOPIC (discussion of primarily Pre-WWII baseball cards). This is not a general forum, it is target specific.<br /><br /><br />So, when a user consistently posts off topic threads, and is asked very politely to refrain from doing so... but that person feels a need to 'fight the establishment' - ignores polite requests - and continues with creating a multitude of off topic threads, and then consistently bumps those off topic threads to the top when they start to go stale....... well it is a board distraction.<br /><br />It is not a matter of users choosing to ignore threads they are not interested in.... it is a matter of someone looking for attention by disrupting the board.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />edit: forgot one thing Jeff.... how far along are you with those '14 Cracker Jacks. I am thinking of diving in myself. Any advice? Feel free to email me joe@internetville.com

Posted By: <b>Jeff Lichtman</b><p>Couple of thoughts: first, Barry, you are demented. I would have rather eaten the Froot Loops box than eaten Cheerios as a kid. No one ate Cheerios except for parents. And if by some odd chance there was simply no food left in the house and you were forced to eat Cheerios, normal kids would dump an entire bowl of sugar in so that when you were finished eating you'd have sand bars in your bowl made of sugar.<br /><br />Second, those Corn Pops rocked. Round, yellow, tasty. Bit of an aftertaste after eating an entire box, however, but they still rocked.<br /><br />Third, Todd, I knew there was something off about you. Apple Jacks? Here was my reasoning as a kid why I would always choose Froot Loops over Apple Jacks: first, FLs had many colors as compared to just one in AJs; next, AJs tasted like apple (sort of). Why eat something that tasted like a real healthy fruit (again, kind of) when you could eat little bright colored, chemically flavored circles -- which tasted nothing like a real fruit? <br /><br />Fourth, I loved Cap'N Crunch (sp?) but ONLY with Crunchberries. Those berries were divine! Without the crunchberries the cereal was kind of flat and dry.
