    He overstepped the mark Methinks, it says suspended on his profile!

    Oh I see, I'm not surprised.
    ROMOS

    Know what you mean.
    :-)

    I was wondering about Umbriel too. Where is Benthere , Dardeigh and Ed Schank? They seem to be missing too.

    ROMOS

    Ed is very unwell, the others I haven't a clue about.

    I know Ed had health problems, but despite his problems he used to be on his site. I hope he is getting better.
    I want to wish Ed, Benthere Umbriel and Dardeigh a very "Happy and healthy New Year"

    When someone is suspended, that is the end of their words before our eyes. I didn’t read Umbriel very often because I didn’t like what he had to say. Sometimes the words were X rated, I guess. Anyway, we never know the problems of any other member of akaQA. The moderators make the decisions. If we think a member should be reinstated, it would be good to say so. However, laughing and joking about a past member is not ok. It’s juvenile and mean.

    I was wondering about Umbriel too.That's too bad he's suspended, but not surprising! After awhile he grows on you, (probably described as something akin to jock itch). LOL!

    "That's too bad he's suspended". HE made that choice after being warned again and again. His desire to continue posting rude, crude and disturbing comments on this forum (many of which were deleted by moderators), is the reason for his suspension!

    Umbriel has been suspended.He did not adhere to the rules of this forum.

    Umbriel. he's harmless , you take what he says with a pinch of salt , that is if you can understand what he's saying.

    Shootah

    Yeah...definitely one for convoluted answers! Once you got started reading one of his answers...it usually sucked you into the subject like quick sand...and sometimes like one of those sci-fi horror movies where the giant tentacle reaching down sucks some guy's face off! LOL!

    @bulletman"you take what he says with a pinch of salt"
    Maybe...unless you are a moderator who is obligated to read through his gross filth and then delete it...over and over again! That's what moderators do, in order to keep the site pleasant for the members and acceptable to the owners and advertisers.

    I don't recall ever reading anything gross from Umbriel. Most of it was rather entertaining.

    @digger...I would love to give you the details of some of Umbriel's "entertaining" posts and comments...those that DID NOT show up on this forum. If you had read what the moderators had to read, your opinion would be different.
    digger

    Maybe,maybe not. I have a high threshold for beyond the pale.

    Then get outside in the sunshine, digger!

    I think he had been very naughty and spoke his mind somtimes,

    Ducky

    Moderator
    Umbriel did much more than speak his mind...THAT IS ALLOWED. He chose to express his opinions on topics that many found disgusting and disturbing. He also chose to attack a number of members who were not afraid to tell him that! (What appeared here, was only a percentage of what he tried to post, believe me!)
    hector5559

    So be it ,I Presonaly,found him o/k but ,then,i was not always aware of his rudness to others,
    Ducky

    Moderator
    Yes, I understand...most members cannot be aware as we hope to catch a lot of "stuff" BEFORE it gets here.

    IMHO umbriel should be reinstated to the site. Some of his comments were a bit extreme but he should have learned his lesson. In any case, the quality of his prose was a shining example to all of us.

    ROMOS

    HIS PROSE?
    Gimme a break!
    Ducky

    Moderator
    I assume your humble opinion is based on what you have read of Umbriel's prose? I had the pleasure of reading the other 50% of his prose. It was deleted due to being disgusting and disturbing! If I have a vote, Umbriel will NEVER be reinstated to this site, EVER! I think that the advertisers here, will agree with me...not you!
    nomdeplume

    I can only base my opinions on what appeared on the site, the uncensored version was obviously not available to me.
    Ducky

    Moderator
    Precisely my point and HE REFUSED to learn his lesson...that's why he's gone!
    digger

    Ducky, Isn't it the job of a moderator to clean up the occasional mess so that the rest of us can continue to frequent this site, to the delight of the advertisers ?
    Ducky

    Moderator
    Isn't that what I've been saying throughout this thread? I thought so.
    digger

    Yes,it IS what you've been saying. It's the permanent suspension that some of us disagree with. Not the cleaning up.

    When a member requires as much time and attention as he did, it's not worth the trouble of having him back. He needs too much watching, deleting, editing and warning. Most members are great contributors and fun as well. He is not! I guess I didn't find him quite as delightful as you did and I will do what I can to make sure it IS permanent!
