[paulgila]

i wonder if someone who gets suspended surreptitiously reads what everyone is saying about him in a thread like this.

[gsn]

I'll just say there have been alot of GUESTS monitoring several threads the last couple of weeks!

[philinsydney]

I miss Stan, he was my favorite stumpster

You can still see him on growing on the edge

Hi everybody! Did I miss anything? Seriously now, sorry to those of you who take everything literally, and to the rest of you...thanks for the sideaches!

[_Keith]

You missed the rerun, of the rerun, of the rerun.

I would have been really confused as to how they got the name Stump heads, but I remember the original Stumphead of a few years back. Good name for those that break the rules when I get to thinking about it.

I remember the original "Stump Head" hea actually used that as his login name or "Stumpy". The guy managed to insult, offend so many people even one of our late great Palm experts and authors. No doubt that is great group name for these misbehaving people. The dude is probably lurking out there somewhere.......

[TimHopper]

Stumpy is quite a character. He did send me a lot of good seeds back in the day. I have some Betel Nut trees that are over 16 feet tall now from seeds that he mailed up from south Florida. Tim

Let's all take a bite out of Cyber Bullying (to quote the famous Scruff Mcgruff). Anyone else seen that commercial? - I watch too much tv...

In all seriousness Dean, you're doing a great job in keeping this forum running smoothly. Keep up the good work. These guys (stumpheads) ruin it especially for the new members. I know that I wouldn't have stuck around if a bunch of idiots kept giving me a hard time.

[PALM MOD]

I miss Stan, he was my favorite stumpster

I was contacted by Stan when I first became Moderator over two years ago. I can't remember exactly what we discussed, but I do remember him saying he wasn't going to beg to be let back on, and I didn't invite him. But I did have the thought that I would consider the possibility if he ever asked. I remember he didn't like the term Stumphead.

I remember the thread that was in play when he got banned. It was about hunting, and vegetarianism. I didn't read anything too egregious, but that doesn't mean things weren't said that I didn't see, or there were off forum interactions. And he did have a little bit of an attitude. But he was a colorful character and people change. So, Stan, if your out there, maybe we could let by-gones be by-gones after all this time. I'm sure you are still growing palms. And with the Palapa and Tiki Room gone, the temptations wouldn't be as great.

As far as the others that have been Stumpheaded, they should remain that way.

[Neofolis]

I also miss Adrain (STAN), despite occasional disagreements.

[Moose]

I found the stumpy thread.

[Al in Kona]

Dean,

I was bummed to see that you had taken what had happened personally. Most of what you do goes unnoticed on this board and we all take it for granted sometimes. The board just runs and we accept it, not thinking of the constant work and decisions going on in the background. I know you have heard it before, but I'll say it again, Thank you for your work here, I greatly appreciate it and your fairness. I really enjoy this place for all it's information, the people, and the sincere characters we have.

Sincerely,

Matt

Dean, I couldn't say it better myself than what Matt says here. Thanks for all your hard work as Moderator on Palmtalk.

I set up the password protected forum ("Let's Talk Story") for all those people who constantly complain about being censored. So I created a space where anyone can say just about anything they want - palms, politics, or a mixture of the two. Funny thing is - those who think they want that, and think they can talk smack or stand up for themselves, run away when challenged. So don't try it if you can't handle having your opinions questioned. One simple rule - "no personal attacks" - everything else is fair game. After you are registered, you need to request the password for this forum.

No personal attacks? Is that like saying, "Your mother was a hamster and your father smelled of elderberries"?

Only suggestion I have is try the main page first, then go to the forum. Click on the link in my signature below. Otherwise complain to your IT guy, and demand an explanation as to why you are not allowed to play while at work.

You know you've said a lot worse over there without any problems.

How confusing. If I point out that certain people are fat, middle aged, unattractive chauvinist pigs, is that a personal attack or merely stating facts ?

Are you referring to Jerry? If so, the middle age part isn't factual.

For some reason the talk in Dean´s forum has quited down some. It would be good of more people participated as it is a good place to discuss things. There are two sides to every story and that does not mean that one side is the only one that is right either.

I remember the original "Stump Head" hea actually used that as his login name or "Stumpy". The guy managed to insult, offend so many people even one of our late great Palm experts and authors. No doubt that is great group name for these misbehaving people. The dude is probably lurking out there somewhere.......

If only....... he sent out viruses in emails to all his `friends` and spread the attack to some other forums. It was only when some guys tried to overload the inbox of his business email address with huge attachments that he stopped. The original stumphead was and probably always will be the worst troll you could ever see in your lifetime.

[edbrown_III]

supposedly because he had a backyard nuresry --- he knew everything. He would insult folks and post pornography on the board --- I didnt know about the virues but this would nt be stretch

bear in mind this was a 28 year old man. wishing him back is like wishing the unabomber back ----

Best r egards,

I am surprised this to be the case, as it is the first anyone has even mentioned info like that to me. I would suggest that if someone ever had a problem like that with another member on any forum that they contact the Moderator and let him know. Or even if a known member was a trouble maker on a personal level, that is info a Mod would appreciate.

I might also mention that I have received many emails from "friends" containing viruses. Many of the worms and viruses attacking Microsoft's Outlook Express used that strategy of hijacking users address books without the knowledge of the sender. Most casual computer users are not sophisticated enough to handle and disseminate viruses. But he was a hot head about certain pet issues, and that was enough for a Stumpheading here.

Note that "strangely" is the operative word.

[AggiePalms]

Hey, I can take facts; "fat, middle aged, unattractive chauvinist pigs" Yes, those are facts, and I cannot deny them.

But "strangely"? Now that is an opinion, not a fact, and I do not take kindly to negative opinions about me. I resemble an apology. Even though you aren't the first good palm talker to call me strangely. I wonder what that means?

those were not discussions.it was more like "beat up on the lone liberal."

[edbrown_III]

Relative to stumphead there used to be a fellow from Ca (Barrry Osbourne) I remember he talking about his palms and stumpy calling him names and insulting him about his knowledge (bear in mind that there is about 40 years difference in knowledge between the two)

it aint a discussion if just loud mouths are down loading opinion

You wouldnt have known because it was before this new format forum was created , the old basic forum contained email addresses of posters. In those days we didnt have a moderator....
