I have a little bit different take on this. People who start out very badly in a situation like this tend to get worse, not better. Based on that start, he has nothing to offer us. It's not a perfect solution, but I'd block his IP address, no apologies.

Oh, yeah... Meant to apologize for that.

I thought I was re-registering on gloominati and was "gettin' it tune".

Awash in a sea of steel cut oats and engine oil, constricted by liberally applied hose clamps and rally bungees.... Woulda been a short visit.

Probably would have exploded the brain-ball in an initial railing against the lack of categorization and the allegorical burns of the campfire parables.

Yeah but just watching the slowmo drop into the quicksand would have been worth a $10 ticket.

Maybe he was looking to have his oats cut for him?

Even if he gets in in some way, his attitude will probably show sooner rather than later and then he can be properly banned after he gets a verbal ass whooping from us.

(scratching head) How the heck did I get in?

Was he from Denver?  We've got some tough riders out here.  Mongol, maybe?

With all the profits you're making, hire more staff. We all know having your wife on staff is a tax dodge!

Well Luap, as you look out the window of your office on the 60th floor the Wildguzzi building, you should have noticed that HE is the center of the universe........... .... :evil:

And you thought the earth circled the sun. Silly boy. :grin:

Eh, it's all good.  Maybe he was having an off day or something and will come back in a better mood someday.

An attitude like this is very commendable after what he wrote to you. I always had a policy of not burning bridges. Thank you Luap and the moderators for all that you do.

Not saying this is the reason but:

Fella registers at 2:30PM CST.  Sends me nasty note #1 at 3:00.  Nasty note #2 at 3:30. Threat at 4:00 that if I didn't approve his account immediately, he would "find my arrogant and egotistical ### and give me a once over like I've never had".  He has to get an answer regarding his EV immediately.  Guess he's one of those that think this is a major corporation and we sit around all day just approving accounts and babysitting topics.

Needless to say, he'll not be joining us.  We don't need that attitude here.  Reason # 6,709 why manual approvals work perfectly.

Hope all is well on your end  :grin:  Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming :thumb:
