Never had a problem with Robert personally. He's the reason I ended up in OT.

His last post was the day before Chemdog was elevated...

Then I saw he had one more a few weeks ago in the Beer thread.

Must be more than just participants who don't like that dude.

Not all that surprising IMO. He no longer fits the "job description" of a moderator over there. Grumpy doesn't either, but is hanging in for now. However, it seems clear that he and Cumdawg do not get along. Probably a matter of time, as it is obvious that if those two ever knock heads, management will side with Cumdawg. :yesnod:

Bullshit. If Grumpy wanted to leave he'd leave. Clearly he's OK with things over there.

When I was last there all I saw grumpy do was post links and cut and paste. Don’t recall him engaging much.

It would have been better if you had taken your TDS and just not have voted.

I do understand that level of spite. I plan to vote against my Senator John Cornyn in the primary, then when he's the nominee, I'll vote for Beto, for Hillary, or even Satan, whoever the D's are running against him.

For many years, Grumpy was basic. Most of the time, would reply with just a few words.

Seems right around Covid time, he started to cut n paste darn near daily. This would bring in the regulars who would then get canned by other mods for challenging.

It was fun when you could donate items or bid on donated items. I met Eddie Hill that way. Then a few years ago they said no more St. Jude’s auctions, just send money. No clue why.

Probably like every other good deed in life, too much work and aggravation and not enough appreciation shown to make it worth the effort anymore.

Hell, I just got an "infraction" over there for responding to the missing children in Maui thread. All I typed was, "Half of them are probably in John Podesta's basement being bled by Granny Scandals for their adrenochrome."

Millenium Z06 got me for "inappropriate language". :shrug:


Apparently, he's never seen John Podesta's "art work" or heard of Granny Scandal's predilection for drinking the blood of young children. :shrug:

It was fun. I got into a bidding war on a home made bird house that Neece built. I ended up paying close to six hundred bucks for it. I still have it hanging in a tree....:yesnod::seasix:

Forum Administer, thats all, no name.
I said that biden was imoral and corrupt and a small person as well
(thats why the small b). And I encouraged more forum members to do
the same with the small b.
I guess I was not showing enough respect to the little Hitler.

After that Robert and I traded beer's East Coast to West ...He Did tell me to pipe down when I was getting out of line but he was right. Stand up Dude in my opinion. I Believe in the Beer Fairy was a tag you got once you traded...Still have it. :cert:

Thats why I don't donate.

St. Jude said it is also expanding its work internationally, including a plan to spend $200 million over five years to help thousands of children in the Middle East, Africa and other parts of the world receive free chemotherapy drugs. In recent months, the hospital has also helped pediatric cancer patients in Ukraine continue receiving care.

“Having a responsible reserve fund is critical to fueling this comprehensive, global strategic plan,” St. Jude wrote.
