Well then, the process sucks. None of which explains why I couldn't have been told this years ago. Either when I was getting banned or when I inquired.

And, how on God's green Earth could I "dictate" anything as a poster? And why couldn't a moderator step in and, oh, I don't know, "moderate"? I was banned for an unpopular opinion. Not for personal attacks, trolling or anything against board rules, right? Does that make sense to you?

If you'd(or CGI or a moderator) PM'd me or e-mailed me and told me all of this I'd feel very differently about how things were handled. I wouldn't have liked that you were bowing to mob rule, but whatever. Thanks for finally letting me know that it was because I was unpopular and not because I did anything wrong. At least I don't have to wonder anymore.

I don't really wanna get into the whole process. Rules, meetings, moderation, interpretations, etc., I just don't have an interest in it. I'm just trying to be a regular guy who doesn't have to deal with that kinda stuff. That's more or less why I sold the board over a year ago. My PM box was littered with personal gripes and suggestions and requests and demands, and it took the fun right out of it for me. At any rate, you're here now and this could be a good board for everyone soon. I have no beef with you personally, despite whatever disagreements we may have had. So I'll treat you how you wanna be treated here. That's all I can offer at this point.

So is the reason this thread got totally derailed because Carmen Policy is still missing, mute or otherwise? Or is it the deafening sound of nothing coming from the Carson town hall meeting?

Perhaps all the complaints in your PM suggests a problem with the so-called process?

Anyway, I don't recall us ever really having any problems personally or even many disagreements. I enjoyed your posts and even posted a picture of the Dude for you that I don't think you had in your collection.

I admit that I'm surprised that you're here but I didn't know you'd sold off the other board. My first thought was that this place would turn into that place and you would be the conduit. That would suck. Derailment over from me.

CGI is a whacko? You're probably the one guy to ever say that. You're also still a registered member, so I maintain that you simply walked away. So the real bottom line is, I didn't ban you despite your claims to the contrary. Nobody did.

Scam? lol. Watch out for those black helicopters...

No. CGI is a great guy. You full well know I'm talking about your buddy PHX. The word has been out on both of you for a while now.

I was banned, plain and simple, because of you. You flaunted your position over there hiding behind PHX. So please spare me your phony speech. Go somewhere else and pedal your hogwash.

And you have a lot of nerve taking shots at my profession. I have spent over 36 years designing and building aircraft that have saved many American lives. I've never scammed anyone.

Um ... what?

Again, you're still an active member. And when did I take a shot at your profession? 'Black helicopters' is a descriptive term relating to paranoia. Not sure what your problem is, but I'll do everyone a favor and make this our last exchange. Life's too otherwise enjoyable for me to engage in this petty nonsense any further. Enjoy your day, max.

Here's the deal, X.

You are a polarizing individual. There are some here who are none to fond of your methods. If it makes you feel good to post on this board, then enjoy yourself. I'm fairly certain you will behave yourself here, since I believe you're savvy enough to know you can't get away with what you get away with on the ROD board. Hopefully, you can contribute something worthwhile every now and then.

So post away, X.

Heavy is the head that wears the crown, buddy.

Here's something worthwhile until I can get around to more of the nuts and bolts of last year.
The intro isn't a solicitation, btw.

That would be pretty cool.

Do you think they'd go back to the pales? Or the neons?
The worst thing they could do is reinvent the uni again.

IMO just go back to the blue & yellows, but more mustard than yellow much like the avi of Hacksaw with the throwbacks being the old blue & whites that you don twice a year with a must always being when the 49ers visit Inglewood!

Now I do like them better, but some of the reason we like them better is it reminds us of our youth!

I'll sign that petition.

I'll sign that petition.

Now we're getting somewhere can we now focus on how the Rams can actually starting winning more than they're losing?

[den-the-coach]

We've only seen a handful of pics Den. Wait till we see more. I can't wait to see how the digital projection billboard on the roof will look like. It's the most expensive stadium ever built by man. It's going to be amazing.

It's how I get to sleep at night with visions of stadiums dancing in my head just prior to kissing my wife before and after of course!

Perhaps a little, but not entirely. It was more day-to-day stuff than policy.
But anyway, now you know. I'm just a regular joe trying to get back to basics.
I have no desire to affect any policy here. I just like to talk about the Rams as often as I can.

And I did enjoy that picture. Still have it on my HD.
