I guess anyone who has followed the TBD flap knows where I stand. I hope that we can move the many decent folks in the MN hobby away from that poisonous puppy and over here.

I am hard-pressed to understand his motivation for posting such damaging rumor and innuendo against a decent group of folks in a state far from his own, on a Board he had never taken much interest in before.

I understand that his advertisers will get more support than non-advertisers - that's the way of the world in a commercial setting. But this is WAY over the line. I hope that MGC considers seeking economic redress under the libel laws. The recent Varian case in California suggests that people CAN be held responsible financially for what they post online. Damage has been done here, and will be done again unless he is penalized.

Anyway, here I am. I am fairly new to the hobby in MN, but it seems to be a great group of people, with a few bad apples mixed in. And one bad orange (i.e. something round and very fruity, imported from Florida)
