Gone and forgotten - don't wish to be reminded of his attitude.
Agreed.

I can't believe you used "pride" and "Ben" in the same sentence. They're mutually exclusive terms. But, if he's reinstated, he'll be back on the board - toned down at first, then he'll get booted again for some nutso comments.

Some people just like "Urination Contest".....and are not in it for the "Fun" of being in the Porsche community and having all of us enjoy our cars better....best they be gone.....if you want a "soap opera"

While I would agree, and probably, ultimately do agree w/you, the problem with Ben wasn't his sarcastic humor or rudeness. It was his offending other members, saying things that chased people away, or created an environment that was hostile and unhealthy.

He on several occasions attacked or belittled me and it got to the point where I didn't wanna deal with it/him anymore.

He acted like it was his house and he could do/say whatever he wanted. In a public forum, there are rules and an expectation of proper etiquette. He violated both, while alienating many, over and over again.

However, I agree. Ben should be allowed to come back under is assumed name/identity and be a little (a LOT) more respectful of individuals and the community as a whole.

Just my 2

This forum is better without Ben. For the most part he didn’t contribute anything real useful and would insult people just to do it. He can always go play in some other sandbox.

I think you're missing the point - Ben's not coming back, even if he was asked.

And as for the other guy - who the hell knows! - he's probably in therapy with the Oprah crowd.

If BruceP and Ben return to this forum because of a popularity contest, then this isn't the Porsche forum that I signed up for. It would become a variation on Flavor of Love show again. But, that's not why I'm here. I prefer communicating with smart, articulate, polite people - which is what I usually get here nowadays.
