I admit that I was a little reluctant to ban Vaclav, but he stepped over the line once to many (hear that Jon? It can happen), and that was that.

For anybody overcome with misty-eyed nostalgic longing for Ernest, just remember how his distracting and irrelevant posts dominated the Forum during his last brief tenure.

Sorry guys, I really liked Ernest. His posts were offensive but hilarious and always amusing. However, I do admit that I didn't have to put up with him as long as the majority of you did. So you guys would know better than me.

Sorry, I guess I made a mistake about Josh even so it's a little sad that no one wants him back.

So far the results have been interesting.

Man, alchimiste's haiku about croco, poisson, maquereau is brilliant. Seriously. And all I had was a damn limerick.

If there were a "bring back a few of them" option I'd go for that. But ernest was down right offensive in my eyes (and to me) so I can do without him.

A couple of the guys I don't know. Who had the thread about turning his shirt into a kite? I didn't actually follow the thread but remember thinking that it was "yet another post from <whoever>".

That was "Lazarillo," who may or may not have been an earlier incarnation of Vaclav.

No. I don't remember anyone suggesting that.
