Unlike some people, I do take some comments perhaps more personally than others, and I don't tolerate fools very well.

GFY decides to very broadly apply a rule to me that I think is narrow in focus. Rule 1 at GFY is "don't link to other webmaster boards". I put a link in my sign that went to the front page (not board page) of Oprano. Rather than pull the sig or contact me and suggest it wasn't in good taste, Eric went directly to banning. I feel that my link wasn't in voilation of their rules, because I linked to another web resource, which happens to have a chat board. It would be no different than linking to programs like Maxcash who have their own internal webmaster support forum.

I have told Eric that I find it odd that GFY has no problems tolerating some of the stupidest, most ignorant surfer children in the world, yet they will at the snap of the fingers ban a webmaster with a 4 year old account and near 10,000 posts. For me, that gives a clear indication of what type of crowd GFY is looking for, something the sponsors over their need to remember.

My account was unbanned, but since I logged out and don't have the password, I doubt I will be back in there any time soon.

I think Eric is still sore at me for making fun of mygfy.com .
