OT - Paging Old Hat...

[LKeithR]

Hey,

You sent me a PM a couple weeks ago--just got around to replying now and your settings aren't allowing you to receive PMs. Wanna change 'em so I can send you something? Tanks...

[dp]

We swapped some pm a few days ago 'cuz I have a project I think he'd be ideal for. He said there were some things coming up at work he needed to focus on for a few days, said he'd get back to me.

I talked to Old Hat today on txt. He got kicked off the forum for good. he is no longer with us. its a sad thing. anyways, he did say that He said to let you guys know, he is at weldtalk as vicegrip.

Wow, holy Shiite!

The under currents and PM and email traffic must have been pretty bad - all "behind the scenes" stuff" I'd guess as I don't recall seeing any of it "on screen" in the open forum.

I wonder if he ever got a chance to redeem or explain himself.

I had no problems with Old Hat at all and am sorry to see him go for good.

[J. Randall]

Hate to hear that, I liked his style.

I must be the only one who found his posts oddly disjointed and lacking in value.

Won't miss him.

You're entitled to your own opinion.
I found his posts full of information and told from an experienced point of view.

Sorry to see him go. I liked his against-the-current style.

Didn't always agree with him but that's life.

I hope this isn't the beginning of the "if I don't agree with you, I'll flag you off" crud that permeates craigslist.

Anyone know his email addy?

[bborr01]

I won't miss him. He quoted me in a thread that I started about adding a like button and added a sentence that was not part of my post. I find that pretty much inexcusable. No apology or correction when I called him out on it either. BTW, I had nothing to do with his getting banned.

It's pretty much bad form to slag a guy who isn't here to represent himself. This is one of those rare moments where we can look good by doing the right thing with everybody watching.

I think a few of you misunderstood him. Unless there were PM's that went over the line I never saw a problem worth banning him. I think some people are a little thin skinned here. If you don't like him, ignore him. I know his advice has helped me.
I say give him another chance.

[Abner]

I found him hard to follow but that is all. Never received any PM from him. Must have been something off screen, too bad, I think he had experience to share.

A quick forum search shows Old Hat as a Senior Member, and still active. He did have a thread closed and perhaps think he has been tossed but has not.
