Trolls can post as they please on this forum. At the very least they should be blocked. It is about where to some extent because this place is like a preschool at times and with trolls. The last thing I want to do anymore is read this thread, screw this thread it has been ruined. I have my own moderated forum I do not need to be here and I will certainly not reward the troll by joining their forum. That is partially why that troll came to this thread to start trouble to recruit new members for our figs. Also I got a private message from someone showing lots of photos that he dug up a fig tree I gave him just because I badmouthed him. The same sort thing that I badmouthed him on this forum for which goes to show that I was right. He rubs things in to people's faces rudely.

We should not let these jesters rule the castle and make you feel unwelcome...don't take them to heart. You gave good advice over the years, advice that is helpful to new comers and more experienced alike...it would be a shame to loose that. Plus if you leave the jesters win a victory...don't give them the satisfaction. ..the guy who runs "our figs" would be most happy if this forum were to implode...or even just lose some good posters. What I find helpful is taking a break from a forum when things get a little out of hand ...you can always come back later. ;)
The damage has been done, like I said most of my posts were already gone last night. I did not want to disappear without any explanation for why, nor did I want anyone to accuse Jon of doing it. I will be leaving this forum.
