Personally if you ask me, I think some people on here take his shit way more personally than necessary. It's a fucking message board, for chrissakes.

My opinion?

Was he a prick? Sure. Yeah, he was numerous times.

Did I find it hilarious? More often than not.

Did the search shit get way old? Yep. On the flip side I've part of some MB's that demand newbies search and if they don't, they face the reckoning of the whole board and not just one person.

Did he have some good advice and knowledge? Abso-fucking-lutely.

I'd vote reinstate, as I did the other times he's been banned (can't remember if it's been more than twice). That being said though, this isn't a democracy, and Carlton's word is the final say. So it is what it is.
