I have more lives other than RTC than you ever will.

Neither do I. That's why I have such a low "all time posting"
record in RTC. But when I am "gang attacked" by the
Goldenberg Gang even AFTER he revealed his role of
urging others to file FALSE "abuse" complaints against me
to Google, I am not one to walk away and not DEFEND
MYSELF, as many of those who had been intimidated by
Ray and his Gang before.

Neither am I. But you can express your OPINION can't you?

WOW!
Phil, you sure did a lot of "mouth dance" to EVADE the very explicit
questions I've asked for your OPINION, haven't you?
Notice NONE of my questions had anything to do with the number
of lines on sigs, which seemed to be your mental block.
I asked, and asked again,
I have posted, since Ray Goldenberg's post above, in 9 different
threads, totalling at least 26 posts, with my NEW posting account.
Was ANY of them an "abuse"? Did ANYONE think any of them
was an "abuse" and hit the abuse button as Goldenberg urged?
Did you think the ABUSE by George Leppla, of LYING and
making false accusations of me, and his repeated harrassement
of me within the permissible guidelines of the RTC Charter?
of his repeated abuse>
Did you think the responses and tactics of those falsely
attacking my posts within the permissible guidelines of the RTC
charter?
Your comments, especially those relative to the RTC Charter,
will be appreciated.
Ray Goldenberg had bragged that my Large_nassau_grouper
account was "shitcanned" by Google by his campaing of
FALSE ABUSE REPORTS which he urged others to repeat
on the current posting account of mine.
