NOTE: This message has been corrected to mention Clash was the guy on the board.
It seems like almost everything I write is so angering Jonesy that he's threatening to expunge what I write here. Add to this other things, and I'm wondering:
Have I worn out my welcome?
Ben's friend Michael Raugh wrote me maybe two or three years ago, and pointed out that I was the Cliff Claven of the Bull and Finch Pub, the BBS that about 8 people (Me, Ben, Michael, <s>Flack</s> Clash, <s>Flack's</s> Clash's ex-girlfriend who was married to some other guy, Ben's Father and I think a couple other people) infested back in the late 1990s.
So I am getting to the point of wondering if what I have to say is worth bothering. I get the impression my contributions are not worth it, and perhaps I should quit posting and just
Should I even stay?

I never called or heard of the Bull and Finch Pub, and you don't know any of my ex-girlfriends.Tdarcos wrote:It seems like almost everything I write is so angering Jonesy that he's threatening to expunge what I write here. Add to this other things, and I'm wondering:

I realize I made a mistake; Larry used the handle Clash.

Re: Should I even stay?
I was kidding about destroying your posts. However, since you asked:Tdarcos wrote:It seems like almost everything I write is so angering Jonesy that he's threatening to expunge what I write here. Add to this other things, and I'm wondering:

I would say that people aren't ready to see five paragraph replies to their posts that barely have anything to do with the topic at hand. You don't always do this, but you do do it a lot. If you could refrain from that then I would say post all the lyrics you want.
Just ask yourself before hitting reply if your replies are on-topic and concise.
I like you Paul. I kid around with you and forget that sometimes that doesn't come through, but never think I want to run you off. I would, however, like it if your posts were shorter.
the dark and gritty...Ice Cream Jonsey!

Reply, Short version: It didn't sound like you were kidding.
I am reminded of the man who ended his letter with, "I apologize for the length of this letter, I was in a hurry and if I had had more time I could have written a shorter letter."Ice Cream Jonsey wrote:However, since you asked:
