Yes, apparently wrapper is gone; his response to my Hannity post disappeared between last night and this morning. What he said about Palin is the kind of thing Roy and Rocketman say all the time, but evidently no one whines to the Mod about it (and I am certainly not going to, either)
Wrapper’s remark was at least ambiguous, because literally it could be interpreted that Nimrod Palin has to bend over to gut and clean the antlered quadruped, something now part of her lore. Roy (and others) rarely bother to be even this subtle in their bending over metaphors, but once someone was grossed out by Wrapper’s post and expressed their outrage, they obviously went the next step and complained to the Mods. So it goes.
I like micadelic, but he clearly crossed the line in terms of civility, and thus I can only support tossing him. Wrapper is nothing but a troll, a total, unadulterated idiot, and a poster-child for finding a method to permanently ban people.
I don’t like or condone Roy’s tone much of the time, but I’ve always observed him to be careful about staying just this side of the “civility-line”.
A complaint to the administrators would seem in order, eh!?
If you’re going to complain about wrapper coming back you have to complain about micadelic too.
No complaint from me about either of them returning. But you know that already....
I don’t mind retreads coming back for the most part as long as they aren’t banned because they are mentally losing it and screaming at everything then immediately create a new identity and new threads so they can continue screaming at everything.
I also hope a retread doesn’t expect me to be able to keep track of which former name that he used to be. I think I spent at least a month trying to have a conversation with Melorist thinking he was a different retread. He probably thought I was mental for trying to have an intelligent conversation with him rather than ignoring his insults and put-downs. And I kept wondering why he was acting so out of character when in reality he was being himself.
edit:
Also if I ever do figure out who you used to be, don’t expect me to be able to remember it.
I’m a little surprised by it if wrapper was deleted. He made a pretty foul post last night. It was vulgar but not profane. It seems to me that a stern warning was in order, not banishment.
I’m quite surpised by the banishment of Micadelic, because I thought he was a constructive contributor. His reaction to the slanderous post of Manhattan was understandable. Manhattan should have been banned, and at worst, Micadelic should have been warned.
Honestly, I haven’t gotten around to reading what Manhattan said.
If it were that bad, hasn’t someone even yet bothered to report the post to a moderator?
Manhattan made some stupid post about McCain is a psycho who was going to get us all killed, which I don’t is all that shocking (we all know Obama is going to run his version of a “Daisy” commercial if he’s up against it.) So, it really wasn’t what he said to which I object. It’s his overall pattern of conduct, with his drive-by posts, that I find extraordinarily unhelpful. This forum should be for dialogue, and Manhattan has shown no inclination to engage in constructive dialogue. I would also ban Angellight… They waste too much of our time…
Judging from the post that you linked to, I would bet that mccain_is_bush is not wrapper--the post has too much content and no insipid nicknames. Wrapper always struck me as the laziest troll on the forum; he never put much thought into his posts.

It also could be ‘jukeboxgrad’. His posts have been skimmed off back to May, 2007 and I know he was active as late as June, 2008 when he called me a fraud and vanished.
