The guy had a serious mid life crisis. The best thing for him to do is stay off ET for awhile.
What do you mean?
I don't think it's fair for me to discuss his situation on here so I'll leave it alone. It's really none of anybody's business.
Come on, please leave him be... don't be a sore winner.
You know Nitro is a warm-hearted guy who doesn't deserve any more salt poured on his wounds. I know pouring salt is kind of fun... but still, please not in this case. Nitro never did anything to intentionally hurt anyone. Time for you to retire that handle- it's the gentlemanly thing to do.
OK, there has been a little confusion here that I would like to clear up. Apparently I have offended Nitro as I just got off the phone with him and my previous posts, which were not serious, have created some problems. Let me be clear that I was joking about Nitro and I assumed that he took it that way but some on this thread apparently contacted him with concern.
This is one of the more annoying things about message boards. I will take the blame for offending him and that was not my intention. Nothing should be read into my comments about him. I have no inside knowledge of his life and my posts should not convey that I do. I made the mistake of thinking I was typing on an internet message board where people from time to time joke around. Once again, that was my bad. Lesson learned. The joking will stop. So to all the lurkers out there, there is nothing to be concerned about. You can get on with your life. I apologized to Nitro over the phone and now on here and I will contact Baron to remove the posts in question. I hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!
BTW, the smiley was put in there just to make sure no one interpreted the nice weekend as anything more then a nice gesture.

Maverick,
Thank you for clearing that up. Understand that I never minded the riffraff from the morons because that is easily solved by putting them on ignore. Because I respect you, I could not accept what I thought were attacks from you. You genuinely angered me and disappointed me with these allegations that you meant in jest, but were not only interpreted by me as an attack, but by two people that emailed me the same confusing remarks regarding your comment (in disbelief!). You might see my reaction as silly, but there are people on this board that I would not allow what I considered abuse in a serious setting (away from CC and P&R). You are one of them. That is a complement, but I realize you may be angry with me too and that is no consolation.
This is an anonymous message board, but we (you and I) are not anonymous to each other. I do agree that it should all be taken in stride, but if anything, too much trash talking on this board goes on already. In the setting of P&R and CC it is one thing... You have even said that to me in private and you have stated it is such numerous times yourself in some threads we have cooperated in together.
Anyway, this thread and message board belong to you guys. Treat it and each other well. GIGO.
