What was he warned for? That's my point. Bonobo Sep 2015 #120

Do the posters in the AA forum all look alike to you so much that you think that I am kwassa now? Number23 Sep 2015 #121

That was a really stupid reply. Bonobo Sep 2015 #124

You are DEMANDING that I tell you why ANOTHER HOST asked something of a black poster Number23 Sep 2015 #126

I DEMANDED it? Like... foot on throat demand with a touch of "submit now"? Bonobo Sep 2015 #128

Yeah, I'd back away too if I were you at this point. Number23 Sep 2015 #130

Back away, like ignoring that your hosting is threatening people that don't fawn over Clinton? Bonobo Sep 2015 #132
