A friendly reminder

Please remember that just because someone is banned from a group, it does not mean that their presence is entirely gone.

The only limitation placed upon a banned user is that they are no longer allowed to post in the group in question. They are still able to access and read the group and can copy and paste posts from the group elsewhere on this site. They can also alert on posts made by others in the group, and if the banned user has a particular axe to grind, they may easily do so in an attempt to passive-aggressively cause trouble for the members of the group.

Although this is a protected group, please be careful what you post here. Don't give a disgruntled banned user an opening to make trouble for you.

Private messages can be kept hidden from prying eyes. We should use them as needed.

Was it the usual "chosen 'lifestyle'" or "you just need the right (guy/girl)" BS?

Or what used to be normal, ie, having manners.

Oh, shit, I must be getting old. Next thing you know I'll be curmudgeonly.

I wear "tight pants" for an entirely different reason now, and it's not on purpose. No amount of sandpaper would do any good on my jeans today.

Just shows a lot about their own flawed mindset and nothing about us. Pitiful.
