Isn’t he misrepresenting himself and the site? This is the issue here. Would you like someone deliberately trying to mischaracterize or misrepresent your interests somewhere else? Time for a muzzle.

And tried to say something that you disagreed with, wouldn’t you be upset? Its a form of interfering with a trademark or stealing a persona. So, I think there are serious implications here. “jlarsen” has NO RIGHT to call himself a DRB member without the authority of Tommy, Erik or RJ

After reading the hatefest regarding the allegedly misnamed question on BP’s chat, I feel the need to post a few things.

1. I used the location “DRays Bay” for profit?? What profit? I really don’t see them using that question in BP 2009, myself.

2. I did not leave DRB for dead, IIRC when my computer catastrophe happened DRB was actually doing quite well and even then my musings and posts were scarce at best. When the 2.0 upgrade occured, it was already noticed that RJ was pretty much taking the helm and making important decisions regarding the site. While it was months between from my meltdown and my initial attempt to notify RJ of my wellbeing, I have not used and will not use DRB for my own gain(so I have no idea where joedobr gets his info).

3. The idea that I do not follow or read DRB is assinine. I don’t read it minute-by-minute as I’d like to, but I try to follow the team and the writers here as much as possible.

4. When my current living and work situation is more workable, I hope to return here with RJ and co.’s blessing. However from the looks of things, their minds may already be made up regarding me.

5. While I may not be the founder here, I feel that my time here served a purpose as being part of the staff here that bridged the time between its infacy to where it is today. David Bloom, Jim Wisinski, Patrick L. Kennedy, myself, Tyler and all the other writers each deserve their fair share of credit.

Thanks everybody for taking their time.
