Bill/OregonWow. Hope he is OK.
There is hope, even when your brain tells you there isn’t.

If that guy, in 80,000+ posts, hasn't learned yet that he has pissed away well over a year of his one and only life on an absolutely worthless endeavor, he'll never learn.

JBoutfishnHe has posted nothing since January 9th. I hope he was placed in "Time Out" rather than.........
He cannot receive PMs.

He should be back as soon as his time in the corner is over....
17 February 2017, 09:35
cal pappasI'm kind of surpised if he was suspended. ISS has been quite a gentleman the past few years. He has calmed down considerably from the confrontational days of 6-7 years ago and his elk and Vietnam rants. I've enjoyed his posts for the most part.

He has threatened several people before, and was banned before because of his threats.
Some people just never seem to learn.

Saeed,
Does he get a cooling off period or the boot?

SaeedAndrew,
Not sure yet about him.
Others have been given cooling off periods and it worked.
Sometime cooling off periods do not seem to work, so the ban becomes permanent.
I really hate to do this, but ultimately individuals have to learn that actions against others do have consequences.

JCHBSaeed to my mind the AR crowd does not suffer fools (or bullies) easily and can self-police most of the time. It is precisely this robust debate that makes AR better than the sponsored/heavily moderated sites. I don't know ISS from a bar of soap but it would seem harsh to bar him completely. I remember a few threads where his grand assertions were quickly cut down to size by the rest of the members.I can't imagine what he could do to get himself booted permanently??
Just my 10c (South African!)

The actions seem justified.

shootawayWhat about all those that harass others on this site? Those who follow an individual's posts or threads and have no interest in the discussion but just do so to insult or throw rocks.I can name many..Double Don,Lhook7...

I somewhat agree.
But having dealt with Rich personally...I can tell you for sure...to get Rich to that point...it takes 2 to Tango.
Just saying.
Rich has never been anything but friendly and gentleman-like to me.

It takes 2.......not hardly
He called my wife a tramp on AR some years ago.
He has not met her nor does he know her.
On a different occasion I called his hand on his infamous claims of killing over 30 Boon and Crockett elk.
I received a lengthy PM from him inviting me to SCI so he could teach me a lesson in manners and then he eluded to inform me of his hand to hand combat skills
I forwarded the PM to Saeed and Don

505 gibbsISS/Rich is a freaking riot, he is like having our own Roy D Mercer, all you have to do is pull the choke and yank the cord. I would like to petition Saeed to remove him from suspension immediately.
17 February 2017, 18:02
graybirdHe once sent me a PM. Within it he stated how he was going to run a sharp blade through my guts and watch the life leave my eyes while the blood dripped off his elbow.
Heck, I don't even remember what set him off, but I do recall it was something minor.

PeglegOther than being a compulsive liar, Rich does have a lot of knowledge. He just gets riled up when someone disagrees with him.
The only easy day is yesterday!

The issue there is the Political Forum. I went in there once and posted something about a US Supreme Court ruling and read over a few other threads. I have never been back.

Use Enough GunLively debate is one thing, but threatening someone physically should be a permanent ban.

Just my two cents worth.

465H&HHe is my neighbor and I got this from a reliable highly placed source. Rich has given up shooting and hunting and taken up square dancing!

If only his posts were as well-written as that PM.
