Y'know folks, I don't know whether he has gone for good or not, but I don't think we should really be all falling over ourselves with laughter in taking the piss out of him. He has said some extremely odd things in his posts here, often deliberately provocative, but I sense that despite his wild statements his heart is in the right place. He's terrible at expressing himself and is always putting his foot in it, but nobody knows what he's really like. Perhaps there's a shy, sensitive individual behind all the WTF? stuff he posts. I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt anyway.

Oh, look what I found.

Montana Dave can make me laugh more reliably than another other person on this board.

Graham, I don't want to see dan leave the board and take no joy in seeing him do so. I just think the "poor me" response he gave earlier is childish. You don't see a lot of self-pity on this board; actually none. I just want dan to put his big boy pants on and develop some empathy for people. That's all I think most people would ask of him.

Just out of curiosity has anyone ever come up with an internet equivalent for Don't let the door hit you on the way out?

No ill will meant to dan from my post.
I'd have aimed my 'awwww didums' post at anyone kicking up a stink in that manner.
His comment on the Hillsborough thread was bang out of order and completely missed the whole point. If those campaigners had followed his rhetoric (oh just give up, it's all in the past) the truth about the cover-up would never have emerged.
But everyone has an opinion and I try to respect everyone's around here, no matter how crass.

The thing is, Ed (may I call you Ed, Miss?), you can't teach people empathy, least of all through message board posts. If dan's reading this, he might get a kick out of what I'm going to say, or he might be insulted. I think he's got some kind of verbal incontinence syndrome, where he just spews out all kinds of gibberish. I'm not even that sure he believes it himself. And regarding his views on controversial issues, well I've got grandparents who hold similar views, but they'd never express them in the way dan the man does. Only dan can be so tactless. But again - I don't think he can help it. Surely he is to be pitied?

By the way, I see he's changed the topic heading. That could be another cry for attention. I hope it is only that.

None of this matters, he will most likely just come back or another dan the man is in the making.

Dan, you are probably reading this anyway, I am not bothered by your provocative and crazy posts as much as I was by the multitude of threads you would post... some I actually responded to, but whenever one would get going you would inevitably say something so extreme and absurd, it left me wondering why I reacted in the first place, why I bothered with your shenanigans.

There is always an agenda with you, which is why it might be best you left.

You may certainly call me Ed. smile

You may certainly call me Ed. smile big grin

And if I may chime in....

I'm probably one of the persons most likely to disagree most adamantly with Dan's views. However, I have to say that he's kept me thoroughly entertained with his Horror Film Music thread. My work has been particularly arduous over the last six months and those few scattered minutes here and there have been very much appreciated. Thanks Mr. Dan.

Very few people actually know any of the other posters around here. As such, we should all be very cautious about the views we hold of each other. Just sayin'

So Mr. Dan, wherever you are, some of us will miss you.

As always, the voice of reason. Well said.

I've been reading the latest posts on this thread, and I know I'm getting old and somewhat unaware.....but, surely everyone must realize that Dan the Man started this thread with his "leaving the board" declaration back in October of 2012 , nearly two years ago!!!!

And surely you know that Dan has been posting regularly and extensively since then. Don't you???

For fans of Dan, he's never left the room.

For non-fans of Dan, he's never left the room.

Yeah, we know. DavidinBerkeley bumped this thread after Dan announced he was leaving again in another thread.

He's back under the Grammar Nerds thread and as offensive as ever. dan, you have lost my support completely and I hope you are banned. I have never gone this far but this time YOU have. Apparently you cannot live without attention, negative or not. So sad but I will save my sympathy and empathy for those who truly deserve it. If you will not leave on your own, I hope the decision is made for you.

Why should I be ban? Because of the last statement. ok . Interesting, times are a changing.peace.All the trolls the bad will fighting here, why are you getting on me? Amazing when you look at the whole board over the years. I am proud of what I have said because they are wise basic statements of life beyond the limited perceptions of the too often foolish world we live in.If MR BEKERLEY mention the TODAY SHOW EPISODE a few days ago would that be a no-no'if I said I loved the last statement of a movie TO GOD THERE IS NO ZERO really thinking what that could mean in so many ways relating to life issues would that be wrong.? Let's be honest there is incredible bias on this board, whatever side one is on. deep down inside we know it.Sadly getting your wish to banned me would bring it out in spades.

You're back again then. Great. What happened to your "Highway To Heaven"?

Dan - I have to say - I'm a little concerned about you. Aside from your astonishingly provocative statement on the other thread, this post you have now made on this thread makes me wonder a little about your well-being (assuming it isn't chemically induced, and I don't think it is).
