I suppose I could address him as "Man o'War" , get into the spirit of things....:toung:

I think we should start calling BirchTree
Ent
As in Treebeard from Tolkien's talking trees.
Maybe Treebeard...
Lookin' up at the 'G Fund'!!!
Nevermind --- Everyone !!
Birch is here right now --- damn -- reading everything
I thought 'Banned' meant he couldn't come on for a few days.....
....so was trying to do some fast thinking.
But that little rascal --- is here right now ---
laughing at me .....
Birch, did you make Tiger miss his tournamant?
He's watching so watch your MOUTHS!!
Birchtree brings balance to the universe. We need balance !
Maybe we should all use his avatar while he's gone...
I'm with ya kevind, solidarity in support of our friend, i'm thinking of keeping on using it for a bit after he's back unless he asks me to stop.
Now, i don't have a problem with him or anyone else getting banned if that's what the moderators decide, rules are rules, but it's ok to miss his posts and insight while he's fishing. If he doesn't come back soon who is going to single handedly pump up this bull market? Share prices are under pressure already since he been gone.
There have been some good suggestions about additional features like warning icons if a post has been reported, pie hole buttons, etc. I would like to see a 'meter' say on a scale of 1 to 10, a visual indicator of the sensitivity of your post, to let you know the where the line is. Not every post of course, that would be labor prohibitive, but maybe in cases where things are escalating.
I'm an adult and don't think i'll ever be offended by anything someone posts, if i don't like it i'll turn it off or give feedback directly to the author, but i understand the need to be respectful of others. I'm sure i've redlined the meter a few times at about 9.5, i wouldn't say it if i didn't think it mattered, but my judgement has often been found lacking, if you're not making mistakes your not trying or don't care.
