Default Public Service announcment

Leon,

This might sound dramatic but....You have done this board and the hobby a great service here. Maybe Joey will attempt to better himself and quit hurting this hobby we all love, others and himself(doubtful). I hope this time it is for good. I have had several people reach out to me since this thread.
People don't like conflict so I will speak for all the people who Joey negatively affected in thanking you for doing the right thing here. Good show!

Ben

Booting someone is always a last resort. Hopefully he eventually sees his mistakes and quits making them. Apparently he hasn't learned yet though...

I haven't been coming on this board much in the last couple of years. This is due partially because I just needed a break from the hobby, but also because of the couple of people that were on here that were always so negative and combative. Looks like I'm coming back just in time to see one of them booted. LOL. I must say though, it's been my experience that you have to be one big idiot if you have a problem with Ben. He's still one of the nicest people that I've had contact with in this hobby.

Thank you so much Mike. I think a couple people have run a lot of great collectors off. I admit, when I am crossed(or I see wrong doing) I can be quite a bear though . Here is what I received from Joey just a couple minutes ago btw. I am sure he will try and hurt everyone else too that he feels is responsible for this rather than take accountability/responsibility.

Personally, I like Ben. Even if he's ugly.

His photo collection, as most here know, is second to none.

Thanks lil' buddy and JB!

Here is my last pickup from the two said auctions. By someone's standards(not to be mentioned), I paid "thousands" too much but i had to have it as it went with my 1932 Ruth as perfect bookends!
