LOL...wear it as a badge of honor.

It is widely known one needs to kiss D. Thomas' butt on a regular
basis to be one of the boys.

They let TMT in once. Maybe they don't like applications from a gmail account. Try one
tied to a real isp.

Can't be to high they let me in. I see several other names familiar to
RCM readers.

I like the moderated format, it keeps the political noise down.

I agree. I read the "general new" and thats all. Once in a long while
I'll post a reply.
I always use my real name and have a "conventional" isp. :-)

Go over to the HSM BBS and ask if PM is having problems..it has lots
of them.

Again it's not you...the owner of PM is a piece of work who thinks
he's God.

He ain't.

I wonder if he is filtering on anything that might indicate you are a hobbiest. I think
Don had/has hopes that it would be a 'pro type metalworking site'. Seems like he lost
that battle

Wes

I am very surprised about this discussion, since I never felt
unwelcome at PM. But, perhaps, I avoided pushing someone's wrong
buttons.

I have no problems with that.

It is a good resource with many people contributing.

But Don Thomas is still a jerk...a really big jerk.

It would be a much better resource if he would get some therapy.

Don is trying to present a "professional" front so he can attract
commercial advertisers...it is all about the money and ego.

If he was serious about making money, he should get over himself and
get therapy. He has some really damaging attributes that have driven
good posters off and more than one advertiser has pulled
advertisements.

But as long as good info surfaces, I will visit it and laugh at the
management.

Hi Ig.

Hang around on PM long enough and you will see Don misbehave.

It doesn't take long.

He doesn't suffer fools...except himself of course. ;)

I would recommend keeping a low profile...he is known for banning
people for little reason.

And he is a racist so the less he knows about one's race the better.

I would suggest reviewing the PM archives but Don likes to rewrite
history by editing the archives to remove embrassing discussions that
expose his erratic behavior.

Like I said, PM is a good resource but keep your eyes on the owner.

TMT i'm sure that you as with all of us grew up with the neighborhood
sociopath that if he did not get his own way him being the only one with a
bat and ball
usually got mad and took his ball and bat and went home... pathetic al

Just try again. I don't know what they didn't like about my first
application, but the second time it went through.

I logged into PM from both home and work and registered and was
accepted both times.
