Here's the update-

I stayed out of it because I didn't want to appear biased. I never even took it into the staff area to get the others in on it.

The poster had come on my original post three times and demeaned the image-to which each time I replied nicely and told him I agreed with his points and explained that I was cold, tired and my foot was hurting like hell [[Stepped on a tropical catfish in Sept. Being an organ transplant victim my immune system couldn't deal so I ended up having surgery/two weeks in the hospital and still have a large hole with a tendon showinf-got pics if anyone is interested. ]] and that I would clean the image up.

He then took the image and posted a poll on it.

I was napping at the time.

A staffer yanked the poll and gave him points. [[too many points can result in being 'jailed' or removed from membership]]

He got back on my original thread and made more condescending remarks-obviously trying to goad me as I am the "Banhammer Wielder" on the board. Like the old West, some kid always has to test his mettle.

A second staffer jailed him and he got into a pissing match with a third threatening to meet him and knock his teeth out.

A fourth staffer changed his password-technically banning him without doing the paperwork.

I cleaned and reposted the image-got feedback and made improvements and everyone is happy.

I appreciate my staff but trust me-if it was done to another staffer said poster would have been gone MUCH sooner with a note:
