not really i still like Duchess64s excellent appraisal of you as an avid looter, it resonates with my own experience as i see you as a kind of internet thug.

Originally posted by Ghost of a DukeOne of the aspects I like about the posting of FMF is that he is generally impossible to misunderstand.
The more i think about it, the more i think we perhaps have misunderstood FMF. Could it be he has volunteered to be a 'Mod' (rather than a forum moderator) and actually intends simply to ride around for a year on his scooter, sporting his Harrington zipper jacket and Fred Perry polo shirt?
Originally posted by robbie carrobieYou seem to be under the impression that being somehow associated with FMF is an embarrassment for me. FMF is one of the best contributors to this entire site, for you to associate me with him is in fact a compliment. I suppose I could follow your lead and buddy up with head-bangers like redbadger.
Its an excellent Hindi word to describe divejeesters relationship with FMF and comes from the word chumach ( a spoon)

Originally posted by divegeesterI alerted one yesterday and got an almost immediate response. They were awesome. FMF would need to subscribe also, but you would buy him a subscription no problemo!

Originally posted by FMFOh well, at least i got to mention Harrington zipper jackets. (It was on my bucket list).

The post that was quoted here has been removedI'm not sure what you think you're going on about with this notion that there is more than one kind of Terms of Service. There is only one set of Terms of Service and they apply to everyone. They are set by the web site.
And there is no longer any issue outstanding between me and the web site about my use of John W Booth for three months ~ when I attempted to retire the screen name "FMF" [for more or less the same reason "jaywill" wanted to change to "sonship"] ~ over four years ago, or posting a few hundred times over about 10 days in a practical joke with my son's account a couple of years ago.
The whole thing was settled amicably a long time ago. If the web site wanted to continue to make an issue of it, I'm sure they could.
If you think I should be banned, you should alert one of my posts and lay out your case directly to the Moderators.
If you do happen to do this, I would pass it on to another member of the Moderator team to adjudicate upon if my offer to help out with moderating the forums were to have been accepted.
