I went back and read through those responses where he was banned. I got secondhand embarrassment for the site. In the grand scheme of things, how is it really a big deal what he said? I mean it's a forum. I go to work everyday and deal with people in customer service who say much worse shit than that...I mean MUCH worse, and yeah they're paying customers and anyone can just join up here, but I don't quit my job or make some big stance or ban people from my facility because they get an attitude or they get too full of themselves.

I mean we're all just bullshitting each other and pretending we know too much, right? Let's just have fun with it.

annnnnnnnnnd banned (?)

I don't recall Dan saying f--- anyone. Somewhere along the line everyone got way to worried about what certain people deemed important think and rally against others simply because they are not the "important" people. It's like being against someone JUST for standing up to someone "above" them. Nothing regarding who you are on this site makes your opinions or your rights more or less valid--including the person running it.

You don't see Sam Walton telling the customer he's growing tired of him or that he's a talentless hack, do you? Be able to take it if you want to dish it.
