Re: Bruce Hector banned?

Gee, and I thought maybe PCB had seen pictures of the TIMS project.
LOLOLOL

Bring him back - I just wish everyone was as active.

Are Bruce Hector and Peter Lenihan really banned? I'm new here, but it
doesn't take long to figure out who some of the best contributors are. If
true this is absolutely ridiculous and should be reversed.

FREE BRUCE HECTOR!!!!
Actually, he beat me to the punch on commenting on that somewhat off-topic
post, so I just as well could have been banned as well (but wouldn't be
missed nearly as much!). Please, Mr. Moderator, let the TIMS Project Guy
back in, especially if he promises not to behave.....

It would be rather sad if that sort of an occurance
can get someone like Bruce banned.

Certainly he makes a huge contribution to these groups
and is nothing if not a good-natured guy.

Bruce Hector is someone that is actually out doing
some interesting stuff on the water that is worth
hearing about. Someone with a sense of humor that
does not take himself too seriously.
Bruce is a wealth of knowledge and has always been a
positive addition to this group.

The moderator allowed the original post. So he needs
to take some responsiblity. This has been a problem on
yahoo which is solved my monorting new members first
few post. To Kick Bruce off for such a thing would be
wrong. I hope this is not the case and it is just some
computer problem. I would have to reconcider any
group that would kick out someone such as Bruce
Hector.

He is a sailor that is always welcome at my dock

Bruce replied to an off color spam (which compared certain acts to
certain weather conditions) in order to make fun of it, but he didn't
change the title, which was itself rather nasty. I'll bet that was what
happened. His reply itself was inoffensive. But someone complained so I
bet everyone who used that message title got canned.

Hmmmmm,let's see here;it is a gorgeous Sunday with fresh dry
winds,the days are noticably shorter,the Rust Shop is closed, so
maybe Le Baron de Kingston went out to enjoy several fine steins of
chilled hop juice,met a band of pirates,downed a few more
steins,forgot his keys,walked home and slipped up on the keyboard
while trying to get on board.
Just my best guess;-)

Sincerely,

Peter Lenihan,not immune from any of the above..........
I just got an email from Bruce Hector, who seems to have been locked out of
the Bolger group. Any ideas what happened? Probably a Yahoo glitch. b/c
Gregg has been a very easy to deal with moderator. It helps that this group
is pretty easy to deal with too.

Bruce, in the interim you could create another Yahoo identity to log in for
a chat tonight. I'm going to try to participate about 9:00 EDT (-05:00 GMT)
