Default Longtime members being banned?

I went to contact Aa.ron Pa.tton (CobbvLajoie1910) and noticed that he is now banned. A longtime member makes one questionable post and they get the boot?

I've been a member since I was 12 years old. Very sad to see how things have progressed over the years.

From some of the posts I have seen, Leon has been pretty lenient at times. Depending on the nature of the post, and any private messages or emails, perhaps phone conversations, something had to have been said that got someone removed. I suspect there's a lot behind the scenes that we just don't know about, and may not need to know. Some things are better kept between the parties involved than involving everyone who doesn't know the whole story.

What a politically correct BS response.

For those who don't know this place JUMPED THE SHARK YEARS AGO.

I'm a long-time member and waiting to be banned!

And yes you did get in my face at National.

Default Jumping the Shark.....

Jumping the shark is an idiom popularized by Jon Hein that was used to describe the moment in the evolution of a television show when it begins a decline in quality, signaled by a particular scene, episode, or aspect of a show in which the writers use some type of gimmick in an attempt to keep viewers' interest........etc etc.......

Peace, Mike

It means going downhill! I think we have been going downhill for years. It's much easier than going uphill.

I hate the food at McDonalds. I'm going to keep going there, eating their food, and complaining until they kick me out.

Solid logic.

I don't know any forum anywhere on the internet where you can just keep bashing on the owner/moderator and not get banned. Why should Net54 be any different?

Mamma always told me to never let solid logic get in the way of righteous indignation.

How long do you have to be here to get banned? Do I get credit for time from the old N54 board?

Don't quote me on it, but I believe "nuked the fridge" has entered the lexicon as a potential replacement for the previous term. "Nuked the fridge" is familiar to anyone who has had the misfortune of watching Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

We need more of this kind of logic around here.

“Contrariwise,' continued Tweedledee, 'if it was so, it might be; and if it were so, it would be; but as it isn't, it ain't. That's logic.”
