Twas three weeks before Christmas
And all over the ‘net
Folks were shopping ‘last minute’
For the stuff they could still get

When out on the zone there was oh such a clatter
Dozens of 'zoners' congregated
To see what was the matter

We soon discovered to our dismay
That our buddy Scott Yee
Had been in a foray

There was Fran, and Taeke,
And some others too
They’d been pickin’ on Scott
In a big hullabaloo

Scott was offended
And rightly so
The fight was so bad
Someone just had ‘to go’

Fran banned himself
And was gone for 3 days
Then Scott got himself banned
Though it’s all just a haze

If Santa were real
I bet he’d work magic
To fix up this mess
Cause it’s certainly tragic

On Nigel, On Fran, On Taeke and others
Can’t we do something to stop losing our brothers!
And I say to you all as I go out of sight
Merry Christmas to all and let's no longer fight!

....And let's do what's right!

R/I

Does this mean that you are banning yourself too?

Zuki - that's a very interesting question. Because as far as I can see, I've not attacked anyone, insulted anyone, tried to drive anyone off of here, nor have I done anything but try to help people realize that a wrong was done. And though I may be a target because I am vocalizing my feelings, I know there are many others on here who agree with me that a wrong was done.

So the answer is "no", I am not "banning myself" (sorry if that disappoints you)... On the contrary, I am hoping that I can stick around long enough to see this community become more of a 'true' brotherhood.

Rejected -

Hope you do stay! My reply was just a question. The way you worded your original post made me curious.

By the way....how is your life as a lounge singer? Do you play an arranger keyboard?

I played up in your area years (and years) ago in the dead winter. It was so cold.....

I understand your sentiments completely. No-one was banned permanently. I simply imposed a couple of indefinate bans just to try to get people to cool off. Like you I just want things to return to normal again.

Thanks Nigel - You have one TOUGH job and you are doing it with class and style. I commend you for remaining level-headed and unemotional through this all.

I am confident that we have all learned a lot from this episode and that in the future, we will all get along better. Happy holidays and a prosperous 2007 to you and your family (including the entire SZ clan).
