Thats more along the lines of what Im thinking... I just wish I had said something more useful about ignoring it. Doesn't this poster deserves a block?

Agreed

Right, it just seems like the whole issue was ignored. Thats my issue. It never really was addressed by Bob, that this poster was claiming to have information etc etc...

But I also think he did a great job ignoring not ONE, but TWO threads on the same topic on two boards he frequents... he ignored it, for what appears for quite a while...until the poster started getting personal... then he posted a very civil post.... Then the post abuot suicide came up... Doesn't sem right to me.
He should at least get credit for his initial handing of an unfortuante situation... a less severe block? I dunno
> Agree to disagree?
I never have been able to agree to disagree ; ) .... but I do think we agree more than disagree anyway, so .. sure why not.
