I guess I missed it. Why was Terry banned? The man had almost 14,000 post, surly we all learn a thing or two.

Surly just about explains the whole thang

I'll be a Terry Supporter and defend him as best I can

but surely not "every one of us" learns
he just couldn't always play nice.. there's a few others with great vanagon knowledge who were here but are no longer, welcome.

sad IMO.. that people would get emotions and panties in a knot over a crass opinionated stubborn and at times difficult person on the internet..

shyt there's other well 'esteemed' members here in the forums that I have blocked in my personal settings.. where I can only see posts from them if I'm not logged into my account or someone quotes them... and that should be good enough for anyone/everyone to do if yer offended.

but then they go crying and sending PMs to mods on how some old booger offended their snowflake sensibilities (some peoples are flakes at any age really)

Dan, on the way to being an old time curmudgeon hisself

The racist comments were my issue. Otherwise I think curmudgeons are funny.

I would throw in my support for frequent but not total banishment, but I am not an owner or moderator of this site.

Terry does offer products on his site which are either not available elsewhere or at least hard to fine. Without him being here fewer will learn of his site.

this is how I always imagined Terry...

not sure if he was truly racist, he was just able/willing to insult everyone if needed

I'll probably have to go sit in a corner after this thread...
