How humiliating for Bruce, really.

Maybe I missed a post or two but where did he make death threats this time around? Being the recipient of the most death threats I would think I would have a vote and my vote would not be to suspend him for that. Frankly I am more offended by his ego and the lack of respect he shows virtually everyone on the board than his idle low class threats of bodily harm. But we cannot suspend someone for a lack of class. He is a nothing more than a goof ball desperate for someone to notice him and while wishing someone die is not pleasant, he is merely showing who he really is behind the facade of wealth, aristocracy and education.

I probably misspoke. It was wishing for someone's demise and not technically a death threat that I was speaking of. Regardless, the rhetoric, in it's totality, was over the top. No member will be allowed to get this out of line, have a warning 2 mos prior, and continue to play.

I knew what you meant Leon. I just do not recall seeing any of that this time around. Again, maybe I missed it or the sentiments were privately emailed to members. Give him a time out for inciting disruption or being disruptive but I did not see the other infraction. Your board and as offensive as Bruce is I do not agree with suspension over something which is not happening now. That's all I'm sayin'.
