What a roller coaster this thread was. Roc Paint, I feel for you. I can see you're a loving, caring father. I hated the process of my parents' divorce. The whole battle of who gets the kids and when. Being so young at the time, a lot of it confused and upset me. But I knew both of my parents loved me. You never, EVER give up. Always try to communicate with your child. He needs to know you care. I wish you the best. As for the "not fond" message, I can't say I agree with it. I'm not one to preach hate. Then again, I can't imagine your situation either. Swoly definitely seemed to just beg for a hateful comment though. I grew very tired and frustrated of him stinking up a serious thread with an irrelevant topic. I just hope the man doesn't act like that out of an Internet forum. That said, high fives all around!
I run an Autism 501c3 Charity and I understand the pride in organizing successful events and the extra benefit of creating lasting friendships. May God continue to bless people by having them cross your path.
i know i need to get a life after hearing about this ban hammer on twitter. thanks, moes for making me feel useless.
Seriously a great day in Hangout history. Thank you Clutch. As mentioned, he can easily still see by logging out and browsing as a visitor. Which I think makes things even sweeter, because we know he is reading our threads and dying to make one of his usual insensitive/idiotic comments, but can't. And funny how the banning of Swoly is the thing that brings everyone from the Hangout together in celebration. I don't think there's a single regular poster here that hadn't grown tired of his act long ago.

It was a beautiful day today. Time for everyone to go out and enjoy some sunlight tomorrow instead of all of this pointless bickering. This thread can be summed up by a movie - 12 Angry Men. The "not fond" comment is the equivalent of the "I'm going to kill you" comment from the movie. We all say things in the heat of the moment that we don't really mean. Hyperbole, etc etc. Once everyone gets riled up and starts grandstanding - it takes a couple people with patience to wind everyone back down. (Of course - in the movie they couldn't just 'ban' people! ) Nice job team.
:grin: it was only a matter of time that this thread would go there and that clutch would come though like...
