I was looking for a thread and stumbled across AnthonyGS's profile and it said deactivated, did he get banned?

I wasn't sure if he got banned or quit, that happened at the same time as FrenchyD if I remember right, maybe a month ago.

Nah, he survived that apocalypse- he tried E36 M3 starting with me after that fact at one point. He may not have survived whatever this one is- my guess is the Christina Lam thread.

Doesn't show deactivated when I look it up. 

I reached out.

Steve Jones apparently got the quiet banhammer a bit ago.  Not sure when.

I actually thought Steve was less of a problem child than the current topic under discussion.  Certainly he had been in recent memory.

[edit]  It may have been voluntary on Steve's part?  I have no idea.

I didn't know that one. Steve a few years ago I can see. Steve lately had been pretty interesting.

That's odd. He really seemed to have mellowed out, unless there was stuff in the war threads I don't read. 

Really in the last few months I thought it would have been me over Steve. (Definitely not asking to be, I have entirely too many important notes here I don't have anywhere else)

I checked day before yesterday and it showed deactivated. I hadn't seen that before so I went and looked at frenchy's, who I know got banned, and his said the same thing. That's why I assumed he was banned. If they reactivated him, maybe he will chime in

The constant martyrdom/censhorship complex was beyond annoying. As well that the 75% of his posts were "I know better than you, but I refuse to provide any evidence to back up my assertions."

 

Didn't realize Steve Jones got the banhammer. Like RevRico said, he seemed to have really mellowed out the last year.

After the things I've seen fly lately, you're the LAST one i'd suspect on that list. Hell, i'd suspect me, before you.

I got a reply from Anthony, everything is OK.

He got a time out at some point, maybe last week, but his account has not been disconnected.

I'm fine.  No need to go over everything as it won't change anything.  Have a Happy Thanksgiving.  I did try to share this over the weekend.  You just don't see these in this kind of condition much anymore.

Get specific and stop with the ad hominem nonsense for once.  This is exactly why you never like my replies to you.  If you have a point, make it. 
 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone.  I'm probably not going to post until next year  if then.

I have feeling on this post. Pretty sure I can't share them.

I didn't know Frenchy got fried.  I figured the AI Chatbot meme generator finally got stuck on some endless loop and was just unplugged.

Yeah, once Steve stopped leaching off living at his old man's and got rid of the busted mustang I felt that things had really turned the corner for him.

They probably just don't want YOU to see his posts. Keep the two of you rabble rousers apart.
