I think Brobs' ongoing behavior resulted in him having a very short leash. I mostly enjoyed him but he too often made completely unnecessary posts that seemed to only serve being disruptive. It's like he couldn't help himself. He never bothered me, I found him more humorous than disruptive. I can also understand why the admins got tired of him.

I've been under attack from him and it wasn't pleasant, although not nearly as nasty as some other members have experienced.
I have found him entertaining as well, but some of the attacks he has made on people have been so perfidious that in the end I just couldn't stand him.
If you are kind to ten people and an asshole to one, you're an asshole. That's what happened to him.

Yeah…I often have to remind myself that keyboard communication can often be misconstrued/misinterpreted. Also, I can be an opinionated, sarcastic SOB sometimes & have to check myself in order to respect all folks…it’s one of my many character flaws. What’ve learned is that there are times when what you think is unimportant & having your say is often unnecessary. Kinda ‘opinions are like ass ?s thing…’☕

so true. It took me a while to learn that the reason I can say certain things in person and not online while not getting into fights is two fold. One some people are just keyboard warriors and will tell you how tough they are but not ever in punching distance. The other thing is that whole tone of voice and look on your face.
Oh and I don't think he's coming back. I think there is such a thing as a perma ban.
