Rant: Disabled Username on GRB

Post by dmarx »

About a year ago, I changed my e-mail address on this site. When I did that, my username (dmarx114) became disabled. I felt like Tom Hanks in Cast Away. E-mails to the admins were never returned. Creating new usernames were never approved. Essentially, I was deprived of a whole year of criticizing Mike Matheny's decisions. And let me tell you, there was A LOT to criticize.

But it's good to be back.

I will not be changing my e-mail address ever again.

You will just have to double up on criticism this year.

If I were a mod, I would have administered to your needs with care and concern. So vote for me, heyzeus, for mod in 2013. Your experience at GRB is my top concern.

I prefer to think that your username was differently abled.

This is the internet-forum equivalent of the Innocence Project. Sure, he can get his old username back, but he's lost a year that he could have been throwing away on the Presidential campaign thread.

Surely something can be worked out. Perhaps a free lifetime membership in exchange for a promise not to sue.
