I thought the same thing about the grammar and spelling, which is why alluded to Jimbo's lack of either in my original post, but that post by "Joe_H" has a number of quotes from even 2-3 week old posts. Saving up posts, thinking them over, proofreading, spell checking it is possible. Most everything he quoted was not from the past couple of days actually.

Luke, I have read 100s of your posts I have never seen you antagonizing Jimbo, until he starts saying rediculous things that are inflammatory to the board and we all get angry. I believe in respecting other's views, but when those views violate 1. The notion/subject of the board and the reason the people come here 2. The respect of the board members with hateful and critical comments 3. Things that are said purely to press buttons with all of us... it's just not cool. Really. I can deal with someone correcting me on technical points (rikter, Hal, Klingon, etc. have done this and that's fine - I can be wrong). I can deal with differing viewpoints (many members debate here). But there is a line and Jimbo/Joe_H has crossed way over it.

Further there is some likemindedness in thought here about loving the OT and wanting it preserved. This likemindedness is the very root of our respect, almost all of us are here for the same reason. That is at the core of our posts, even if some views differ. Jimbo does not share these views TPM is the greatest movie of all time next to ATOC (perfectly titled as well). Why not post on sites that agree with this and are driven around the PT with people that saw the OT SE versions on VHS a couple years back once. This is not that site.

I am sure we'll get a post back from "Joe_H" in several days...give him time to prepare.

In the meantime...run the IP please.
