Best to agree to disagree and move on

It should be a dead issue, but you really cannot make an argument for "you all got him banned" any more than you can try to allude to paid sponsors pulling strings.  Charlie got himself banned and the richly deserved shots he has taken here are surely no more than the shots he took at those who disagreed with him on his forum.

It did not have to be that way.  He was warned time and again and, as he pretty much confessed in the quoted post, he just cannot help himself.

Now, can we agree to disagree and move on?  I promise not to pull any strings to get you banned (rofl).  There is even a good chance I would defend your honery hide if anybody tried it.

BTW, thanks for the "apology" (I responded in kind, I think) - though there is no need to do so other than giving the innocents a warm fuzzy.  You were just sticking up for someone you believe in and speaking your mind in your own colorful and endearing way.
