Nobody asked me, but I'll put in my 2¢ anyway. This locked post discussion has gone in a couple of directions. On one hand, someone is very forgiving and that is something worthy of recognition. On the other, some folks have quite a bit of difficulty with the behavior of the individual. Personally, I was appalled at his behavior. Our mods have been very judicious, even generous, in exercising the nuclear option. FWIW, I find in favor of the moderator. I just don't think it takes much effort at all to keep a civil tone and it's not too much to expect. After all, I'm reasonably sure we come here because we derive a certain pleasure from doing it. We don't need someone spitting in the broth.

“Yes, I’ll have the large broth, no spit please.”

“Will that be all, sir?”

“Yes, thank you. Maybe hold the mis-wired output transformers.”

“Very good, sir. Would you like that on your next build?”

:lol:
Just plug it in, man.

Don't get me wrong. I whole heartedly support banning this guy. His behavior went way beyond the threshold necessary to ban him.

He was an asshat, unwilling to learn from the ones he came seeking for help.

Let him be gone.
Move on.

In my humblest of opinions: You're not in the wrong. There are several forums I peek at, and the community here is by far the best. Thanks for helping keep it that way.

Stevem: I also appreciate your tenacity with helping solve his problem(s). I understand it kind of sucks when you've invested the time to help someone, only to be cut off before the finish line.

Thanks to everyone here for making this a fun place to hang out. Save me some bacon at the breakfast table!
