Congrats, PSI. (I got promoted here a year and a half ago, and the jury is still out on whether it's been a good thing. Peter Principle and all.)

I think I'm going to eat dinner and watch a movie with my kid. I'm sure you guys will get this all straightened out while I'm gone.

Congrats both to Psimet and Grumpy! Great news, except for the folks looking for some new wheels 
Glad I got my order through before today.
See? The economy is turning around.
for now

Hamlet...But I've used that line on my wife too many times. Marginal success
Never thought of you as naive.

I wasn't around at the time of timmyquest, but tspek seemed like an alright guy. Never did anything out of the ordinary around here. He was a lot less of an offensive poster than some other people who are not currently banned.

timmyquest was pretty obnoxious, but tspek toned it down.

I don't think the mods will reverse course based just on popular opinion.
TQ made his bed, let him sleep in it..
I didn't think he was bad at all, but the mods must've had some reason. Given his history, is this really that surprising?

Yeah, no issues with tspek in the 33, but a little too far with some behind-the-scenes stuff in the 41. The next sock will probably be one more step toward maturity and maybe stay under the radar.
We'll have to keep our eyes on any new members with "my first race as a 4" reports

I am against the ban, and have made my feelings known to the admins. They haven't ever changed their minds based on my opinions in the past though.
I would not have supported the original ban anyway.

Since it is common knowledge that a poster *cough*botto*cough* can be banned from one forum *cough*foo*cough*, why can't someone who has issues in the 41 only be banned from the 41 only?

I was going to suggest he be banned only from the 41 (or maybe banned from every forum besides the 33), but I wasn't sure it was possible.

Oh man, I'm sorry I started this **** storm...
I should have just pmed him...
I'd thought that they were the same, but TQ was long gone and Tspek was cool. Let him back in! He races, he rides, he does well, and he actually posts useful crap on here...
FREE TSPEK!
