Longeyes,
I've no idea why you got clubbed like a baby seal.
My collection of warnings, reprimands, upbraidings, etc. far surpasses my gun collection in both numbers and variety. I'm a member of the minority at THR (i.e. I am not a conservative, Xian, GOP-voting, Bush-loving, Iraq War-supporting gun owner) so almost every Hell & Pee thread I ever participated in meant I was in disagreement with most of the other participants. I didn't always express myself the way that the stake-holders in THR desire us to and, as a result, I got smacked down. I don't recall you being at the center of too many monkeyhouse shitfights.
With regard to comparing anybody to G_nk_d, don't read more into it than is there. How much you post is no gauge of your worth as a member. Remember C.R. Sam? He was as laconic as they come. He posted seldom and used telegraphic style when he did. Yet, that man could say more of value in a couple sentences than most do in whole pages.
