You know what, JR WAMSO Matriot GUEST karen, samantha, etc? Your protestations would have some credibility if you weren't posting under aliases all over the place and acting like you are everything from a man to a Russian having problems with English, on and on. Of course you want Joe to turn over the reins. That is because he is getting to you and he is on the right track. Your posting above is another attempt to all of a sudden seem "the voice of reason who just cares about The Mudcat" while simultaneously posting destructive phoney crap on other threads.

I find it to be the ultimate irony that the reason you can hold Joe, and the rest of the people who volunteer time and money to keep this place in existence, is because we identify ourselves. I wonder how it would be if I exposed your phoney identity crap anonymously? My guess is that you would cry and complain about not knowing who your accuser was.

I could care less about your anonymity. Your motives are what trouble me. Your motives are to seek attention, be destructive, and to manipulate nice folks. It is the latter of these that is most troubling. Because these folks want to see the best in people, and are gentle, and use reason, you can take advantage of their decent nature. I have been fighting folks who do this shit my entire life. They are bullies, and you are a bullie. Your game is disgusting. I believe very strongly that Joe, Max and Jeff should follow your advice so you can call yourself a martyr in other places. They won't, because they are wise enough not to play your game. But know this. I would. And Mudcat would be better off for it.
