Hi.
I consider myself to be a friend to JBK. I understand that he has a mental illness. I always understood that. I did stay away from the posts that went over the line. The community deemed that he had gone too far. I don't know...this community has funny ways sometimes when it decides what it will and will not put up with. There is a certain amount of 'following' and I don't even think it's intentional...but there's human nature for you. I admit there are people I don't put up with either...but I try to ignore them rather than keep egging them on. I say 'try' sometimes I can't help but poke. But I always had an affinity for your brother. There is a lot of goodness in him that shone through. One respected member has not been back since JBK was banned. I say all this as a way to say: I hope JBK is doing well. I miss him and his creativity. I'm glad he has family to support him. I don't know if you are telling him about the posting here and the responses, but maybe you could just give him a hug for me. I don't know what mugshot thing you are talking about. Maybe I missed something? Anyway, thank you for letting us know how he is. I wonder about him. |

lamplighter. This was his last post:
http://www.cellar.org/showthread.php...217#post890217 eta: I may be wrong. I'm still looking over his posts but there was something that made me think that thread was his last straw. It could just be coincidence. p.s. I don't blame glatt or anyone else for any of it. I'm no saint. I see why people were upset. That is all. |

I was going back through some posts and found this thread. JBK wrote me this poem and it really cheered me up that Christmas. My mom passed away 4 days later, from cancer, so it wasn't anything like Christmas to me last year. Somehow he was in tune with that and wrote me a fun poem and cheered me up. Yep, I'd say he touched some lives here.

Hi JBK-Bro
I, too, am glad to hear JBK has people in his life who are actively caring about him / for him. You sound like a really good brother, a good person, lucky JBK. I'd welcome JBK's return too, but that's not my call. Tell him hello and ... ?? good luck and good night? wth? I hope he's doing well. He has a place here if he can return.

It's good to know JB has people like you looking out for him.
You sound like a good bro, JB's Bro.

Yeah. Frustrating as things were towards the end of JB's time here, I think most of of us still hope he's ok and wish him well.
Funny, I was thinking about him a couple of weeks ago actually. I'd clicked on an old thread and seen one of his posts. Say hi from us. Banned or not: once a dwellar, always a dwellar :p

Saaaaaay, that reminds me. Starring_Emma was sent to Coventry as a minor; but, should have reached the age of majority by now. She provided some spirited political conversation and deserves a second chance as a mature adult. Her account should be reinstated immediately.

Starring_Emma was sent to Coventry as an attention whore. Age is irrelevant.

People, especially teenagers, mature with age.
You gave pensive pam a second chance. |

Everybody gets a second chance, it's called starting a new account. Meanwhile I am not responsible for moderation. Mods are elected.
