What I find interesting is, getting onto DW is no problem...its only when you try to enter the forum that you get the OOPS! message.
Must be a separate entity.

I liked Bo, too, but I never noticed anything political in what he said. Could be that those posts were deleted before I read them. He came across at first as a bit elitist, but we all have our "moments", no?

It could be they were deleted. So he didn't try to be over the top political, but occasionally he would make references to Disney, where he works, as "woke." Not over the top but not especially subtle.

My reason for leaving DW. Right there. I wasn't warned or banned, he just tried some Bowl Cheat power trip over nothing. So I bid him and the site a ...."Fond Farewell"
and migrated over here. With the same handle:evil4:

Familiar story, coming back to see random posts deleted w/o breaking community rules, but other behavioral stuff would get a pass. I otherwise conversed with some great members there, so great to see them come over. DF has better organized marketplace that is maintained

If JDA is allowed back here again I will be gone. I don't need the stress.

That was a big problem with him he would relentlessly go after the big guys, the real deal guys until they eventually couldn’t take it anymore and would leave. I ‘ve witnessed it here as well as another prominent site. Pro drummers hit the road because of a school yard bully. There’s no place for that non sense here.
Zen your safe!

Concur.

Over on DWF he is not nearly as cocky or brash. He knows that if he is banned there then he’s got no where else to go. Still got an opinion on everything that he can’t help but incessantly share, that hasn’t changed.

If the Ban Hammer would axe Bo with over 20k posts, then he wouldn’t hesitate to nix a loud mouth with 9k posts that relentlessly badgered other members.

It’s like he’s been castrated.

The ignore button is not strong enough protection for me against JDA but departing DFO is. Goodbye.

Well, I don't think he's here now, so there's no need to leave yet, I don't believe.

He’s not a member here and currently has a lifetime ban. So you should be good.
 
After reading posts on both forums I'm convinced we have a small percentage of people who are not emotionally well.

I think there is a larger portion of posters that probably should have stopped at drink #3 prior to getting online to argue and cause problems.

Remember the old Pearl Drummer's forum? Both sites are an improvement from that thing.
