If he sticks around and posts every few months, I'm sure everyone will forget the threats.

The way I read it is only 7 users are against him, 6 are for him, and the rest are non-committal. I would consider non-committal to be whatever, I don’t care.

I don't think it matters how any of us "read it", he has basically already said he's not leaving. Not that anyone will be surprised that his word means nothing. It never has.

Even the jurors said they were afraid for their lives if they did not convict, and lo and behold, they convicted on everything they could convict on. Because of juror intimidation.

Who wants to get killed, get their family members killed, get their houses burned down, etc.? No one.

The VB membership is under a similar threat, the threat of expensive and untimely litigation. So you can't expect people who have been legitimately threatened to render an unbiased vote. The vote is tainted before it even took place.
i worry more about him sneaking in and putting ecoboost badges on my sports car then i do some frivolous lawsuit. his attorney would settle once he did some reading over of the discovery.

Only 16% fully invested. it's official, the Barn is letting the inmates run the asylum while the warden is napping. I'd say the first order of business when I leave is to get your house in order, before the mob of CFOT misfits run this safe haven into the ground.

only you think this place is being run into the ground because nobody is willing to coddle you and kiss your ass.

Funny how the rest of us manage to do just fine here.

I think VB will continue to be what VB is and has been and people are free to come and go as they like. If folks can't take or don't care for the interactions there's no one keeping them from leaving.

Again, just an internet website, not a measurement of who's winning or losing at life.
