No offense meant, but I am glad they are gone. They made it not enjoyable to read these forums. I know it's all about numbers for the administration, but I think a lot of people stopped reading because of them. There comes a point when decency should take over and many of them did not have any. I don't care if you are behind a screen name you still should treat people with respect and they definitely had no respect for anyone. Hopefully they won't be allowed to sign back on either with another name, because it will only start over again.
I'm sure I'll get slammed big time for this but it is my opinion.

Not that I don't partially agree with you CAR124 but some of them are already back and they were long time members. I don't always agree with some of these people but everyone has an opinion and do make this forum interesting to say the least.

Let them back, please. I disagree with many statements and opinions stated on this site, but some of the views expressed here have provoked me to seek out additional information and to give further thoughts on opposing views. The key is to not take anything personally. If someone attacks anyone directly, I tell myself that it’s probably due to their frustration and inability to clearly state their views or case. This is America - a country that use to believe in Free Speech. Hopefully, that right is never taken away. IMO

The "free speech" thing has been explained many times on these forums. This forum is privately owned and operated. It's free. They can set the rules and ban anyone they want.
In essence they can control the conversation and there is nothing anyone can do about it. And I think that is okey dokey. So basically, follow the rules or don't post. It's pretty simple.
I don't let opposing opinions bother me to the point I think people should be banned but some people are VERY rude and namecall and keep repeating themselves over and over. They try to control conversation through intimidation. I think that's what FL1 is opposed to.

Sometimes people become overly nasty to the point where other posters are afraid to say anything for fear it will be misinterpreted. That happened to me many times with certain posters. They would twist things in ways that they werent meant to be. Some are way to aggresive, and then others, myself included, turn nasty also in response. So sorry if I have ever offended anyone out there, human response.

See there you go being nasty to someone just for saying something you dont happen to agree with, are you an adult? Have a little more class if you are. These forums are supposed to be a way for people to express ideas...not a place to be bullies go to the playground for that.....maybe you are next on the banning list.
