He asked for his account to be deleted. Literally. It was in response to my request that curse words not be included in thread titles, and the poll questioning the use of the "Double-Bird" emoticon.

Yes, really.
"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

Maybe he saw it as a "tone" thing  ::exitstageleft::

Actually I thought he fit in well and enjoyed his contributions. Oh well, I can't get too worked up over someone who overreacts that much.

The analogy I like to use is that of the campfire. A place to sit and chew the fat, to tell jokes and trade lies, and even argue a bit (knowing that it won't come to blows). Talk can become salty at times - that's how life is - but not so much that it blisters the paint.

Here's to hoping that ttomm46 finds another campfire more suited to his liking.
