Went to send him a PM and I get a "this user does not exist" message.

Oh he got banned at DPR? hmm

Did he just leave here? I haven't been keeping up as much as I should apparently.

He asked to be removed from the forum and his contributions erased, and the forum administration obliged. That is as much attention as the matter deserves.

Not wishing to increase the attention, but I totally agree with Kevin.

LOL! Forum Moderation is enough, but if you want to write me in on the next ballot, I wouldn't complain. Just snap a picture before you drop it in the ballot box!

This post might get me banned, but I miss Don. :) I almost hate to say anything because I know he definitely rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. I guess I never could quite figure him out because he certainly had two sides to his online personality. From time to time he could go off on a tear and cross over the line, but he also could be very helpful, friendly, and was a frequent poster of interesting stuff. I learned to just not push his buttons which I could see would just bring out the other Don. In my opinion, some people went out of their way to push his buttons hoping he would get upset though. You know what they say about poking a dog with a stick...

Well, I miss the helpful, friendly Don, but not the postal, hair-triggered Don. Seriously, the guy needs some meds to keep an even keel. I can't imagine that he acts like that at work, of else he wouldn't keep his job for long.
