| Banker0679 was always talking about people getting "band". I wonder what caused this latest addition to the "band" wagon. 7746 posts down the drain................. |

No. Apparently it happened over the weekend. I never saw the reason. I don't check this site on weekends. |

Wait one cotton pickin' minute!
This thread started out as:
"What comes around goes around"
Now it's turned into a Banker0679 farewell tribute?
How did it get from a thread to clearly vilify Banker0679, to a memorial tribute thread? |

I thought the only ones using "band" instead of "banned" were the teenage denizens of Guitar.com.

Where is our alternative safe site? You know, like in the event of a crisis, we are suppose to rendezvous somewhere else while we gather the crew (ooops, almost used the wrong word). If you tell me it's AR, I quit. Not gonna play no more. (no more, no more, no more, hit the road jack).
Banker could be a real PITA, but then so am I ........but, I have to say, I found a post in that other thread pretty offensive and it didn't come from Banker. It was a post that stereotypes or paints all with the same broad brush:

ML is from Vermont. I have typically found that people from Northern states, especially liberal bastions like Vermont, tend to be more racist than Southerners.
but what irks me, is the appearance of a deliberate approach to stir things up:

I hope it's youth that has you not thinking things through. You are alienating those that agree with you - silence really can be far more deafening. Anything you say now makes me wonder what your agenda may really be.

Or I decided that I didn't want people to think I had anything against Banker0679, which I don't. I have had very little interaction with him. He seemed okay by me. He did talk all the time about "band". 7746 posts is a lot of posts and a lot of hours spent on this site to just disappear for no good reason. |

| I think it had to do with Religion and Erik Webster. He gave Erik a hard time about being divorced and still being a member of the Clergy. I posted in the thread for Banker to mind his own business, he and Erik responded and when I went to the post to see what they said, it was gone. It was in the Training section of all places, it happened Sunday morning. |

We all have our moments, but weighing his good and bad, he had more good...He was a client so long we became friends and he was someone that actually tried to help people as witnessed in his last threads in the training section...And I'm only speaking to those, you know, the good and bad thing...
We all have our opinions but I consider it a loss for the site... |

So, I must be a racist because I live in Vermont also? Got news for you, the biggest racists are usually the ones who play the race card and/or accuse others of being racists. Some people who preach tolerance are among the most intolerant in our society.
ps Good catch, ML. Thought this was a brand new thread. |

Maybe that explains it. Giving anyone a hard time about their personal life is off limits. |

Because every time she is banned, she reincarnates herself. I guess the BO's new Admin hasn't figured her out yet. Instead they choose to ban a long term contributor. Go figure. |

People will miss his SEO insights.

THAT's the thread that got him kicked off BO? I felt like he was out of line too and said so. I later IM'd him (Saturday nite) and everything was ok. I don't think I checked the thread after that. It must have gotten pretty bad.
Is it possible that Erik = Darin?

I saw that when it first came out. Good dialog but a little bloody for my tastes. Stuck in the Middle with You and cutting the cop's ear off? You have to be a little psycho to enjoy that. |
