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. :-) ...lew...

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 ;)

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

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.

TMT

That was when he was known as Too Many Toys. ;)

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