He put me on perma-moderate on AS over a year ago. I
finally changed my preference to read-only, so I don't
have to listen to the daily BS anymore and the rules
and fines and...then he kicked me off AlpacaPolitics.
I am sick of reading about him and his mood swings.
How is it that he is free to act out but others are
put on moderate when they step out of line?
I hereby nominate this a Rick free zone. All in favor
say "aye".
