The first post on the original thread timed out so I couldn't edit it anymore in order to add new pledges. Everything in bold and underlined I copied from the first post on the original thread
I am starting a pledge drive to pay to have ed permanently banned. As you make your pledge I will edit this post and add your name and pledge amount. When the amount seems about right I will report this post to Dave and see if he will make the deal with us.

Mike, I am about an hour away from that clown Ed in Francistown ,what kinda money we talking if I go down there,take his damn CAPS KEY and jam it down his throat ?
King, right or wrong, here is what I think and why I am doing what I am doing.
ed's primary purpose here is to bait and troll. He takes great delight in provoking someone into a rant. He dislikes us and everybody else. He doesn't give a damn about any of the issues he trolls with, just that he can find someone to engage in a hateful exchange. I have seen the "just ignore him" advice many times. But there are so many people here that someone (and sometimes many) rises to the bait.
I have no idea if Dave Weber will take money to ban ed for good. But neither does ed. Since Dave has suspended ed three times it doesn't seem a far stretch of the imagination to me that one day he would get fed up and ban him for good. And the pledge money would certainly help Dave with the website. So, in my opinion, there is only an upside and no downside to the pledge drive.
I have always appreciated your manners and your ability to disagree agreeably. And it is my intent to disagree with you agreeably in this post.
Thanks, Mike. I know of your sincerity. I'd be corrupted by not speaking against what I consider gross unfairness. I wouldn't make a peep if Ed was banned temporarily or permanently for good reason. A bribe, a perversion to procure a dishonest action, dishonours the bribers and Dave by imputing he may accept it. That's a serious downside to me. Best, King
You have chosen to call it a bribe. I see it more akin to paying the proctologist to fix my hemorrhoids. They add nothing and certainly take away from the enjoyment of my day. So if it works great, if it doesn't nothing lost.

dave k: we will be watchin for ya...the local police, our local resident state trooper, my neighbors and me too...we are all on alert for threatening nut jobs lottering around our peaceful little village...
well joe, mikie's chief complaint here seems to be about baiting and trolling...yet, he does not seem to realize that starting threads calling for banning others, is in fact baiting and trolling, don ja know?

Best,
Mike
Here's a suggestion- I'll wager a "C" note that none of us who wish Ed would "Go gentle-man-like into the Good night (with apologies to the late Dylan Thomas)that we all would support Saint Jude's Children's Hospital, whether we be of the Catholic Faith or not- it is my favorite Charity, after that the Shriner's Burn Hospital units for children- so how about if instead of taking what Burger King of Canada calls a "bride" we give Dave permission to accumulate the funds, shit-can old Eddie Da Torch for now and forever, and then donate the money in his name to St. Jude's- I'll go a C note for that--
I'm not sure if that's a good analogy, Mike. You would be paying a doctor to perform an operation, a beneficial, straight business transaction.
You're offering money as a bribe to our host to dismiss permanently a member whose behaviour has been exemplary compared to others, a discriminatory action that would harm the integrity of the board.
Your enjoyment of the day doesn't enter into it. It's dishonest and a denial of the spirit of America. I don't believe you saw the flip-side of the "pledge" when you made it because pledge implies solemn fulfillment of higher values.
You're a good judge of higher values. But judges err, too!
Would the Masons, Knights of Columbus, Lions, Kiwanis and Oddfellows or any reputable charitable organization accept money knowing it was collected under these circumstances? Not in my country or in yours. None. Anger and aggravation should not deny a basic human right.
....You're a good judge of higher values. But judges err, too!
Yup, you're a good opinionator of others' values, but some opinionators' never err. Best part, it doesn't cost a dime. Would you consider starting a twenty bucks to Dave thread to show that all conservatives are shellfish.
Easy, Craig, don't be picky. You're a signer of the Ed Declaration of not treating citizens equally.
I wonder how many millions come out of 'communities' in the US and Canada for 'schools' in gaza tunnels and afghan caves. Ah, that's not important.
I proudly stand for the redistribution from the ultra rich to the lowly forum. Haven't you heard, the ends justifies the means. Besides, I could add in that women and minorities would benefit, and all could be excused away because we never really mean a hundred percent, do we.
No hari kari necessary, I offer you the noble retreat. No stench by association, you can start a new fund drive for Dave....and global warming if you want. Remember, please don't stick Canadian coins in the machine.

You misunderstand my intent ed. As you are a true master of baiting and trolling, you know that the purpose of those activities is to engage another person in an argument and provoke them so the troll can respond with personal attacks. And the troll doesn't give a damn about the subject of the argument, he just wants to antagonize and anger someone into arguing. With this thread, I am making a serious and diligent effort to get you banned from this BBS permanently. I have considered how best to do it. And then thought it over and over again. This is how I decided to proceed. Whether I succeed or not, your permanent banishment is the purpose and the goal I am pursuing in this thread.
One strike and your out. All who have been banned at one time or another by our esteemed Doublegun evangelist raise your right hand, collect your personal belongings and remove yourself from the premises. And don't let the door hit you in the ass.....
Whatever floats your boat. If you are having sado-masochistic fantasies about "Master ed" I am not going to condemn you. But I repeat, I am not moving in on your Master ed.
Once ? you could do twice and I think three times and that would still leave just one, Ed Good the King of getting banned from jut about every gun forum on the internet !
well, glad you guys are having such a good time...
once again though its mostly repetitive nonsense...
is there nothing else to talk about here? whenever i try to come up with an interesting and controversial discussion, is seems to just dissolve into child like, pre adolescent personal attacks.
if the only value misfires offers is a place to preach to the the choir about the evils of gun control and the democrats and obama...then i may just get bored enough to go away...i mean enough already!

Like your thread about sloths? The only thing I found interesting about it was when jOe said they taste like hand hung chit'lins.
"if the only value misfires offers is a place to preach to the the choir about the evils of gun control and the democrats and obama...then i may just get bored enough to go away...i mean enough already!"
promises promises ! There is no was you will stay away from here unless your banned AGAIN
"I am about an hour away from that clown Ed in Francistown ,what kinda money we talking if I go down there,take his damn CAPS KEY and jam it down his throat ?" Thank God it is really Francestown- and not the masculine spelling Francistown- I just emitted a major league sigh of relief there.

But none of these male groups with funny costumes and secret rituals help our children- like the St. Judes Children's Hospital does-and remember what Fr. Flannigan said in 1924-- Founder of our Boy's Town in NE-- "No man stands taller then when he bends down to help a child"--and you also forgot the following: Elks, Moose, Eagles, Knights of Pythias, etc- quite a gruppen, Ja??
It would seem to me that if someone has crossed the line to cause our very patient moderator Dave to ban them from the site, then there need not be any additional access granted. One time and your out!!
Whatever floats your boat. If you are having sado-masochistic fantasies about "Master ed" I am not going to condemn you. But I repeat, I am not moving in on your Master ed.
Not sure I follow your ear-rational statement...lets not forget I'm not the one with ED in the brAin....
The ignore feature is really nice. I haven't read a word King Brown has typed in months. You might be surprised at the results if everyone who wants him banned would just add him to ignore and then not respond to anything he says. People get tired of being ignored rather quickly. The board can self-moderate itself with just a little conviction to principles. You are asking Dave to handle your weakness for you.

King, you again seem worried that Dave W. will permanently ban ed., one of a very few who think you have any credibility. What basic human right are you talking about here... the right to use our First Amendment to undermine our Second Amendment as you do so frequently yourself? You and ed both provide support and cover to anti-gun Liberal Left Democrats who are a constant threat to our rights.
I just wanted everyone to understand your obvious motivations for defending ed. This is a disservice to all members here, and I don't know why Dave puts up with either of you.
Mike, I'll double my pledge if you add King to the list. I am frankly sick and tired of the closet anti-gunners who operate within our midst.

Count me in on the "ignore and not respond" to Ed Good idea. It would drive him crazier then he already is and would have the same effect as banning.
"sho nuff mr fox, you can skin me, dats fine; you can boil me, dats also jes fine; but, plezz, plezz, dont trow me in dat briar patch! watt ever you duz, mr fox, don trow me in dat briar patch!
he who starts threads calling for the banishment of another is a trolling, baiting, whiner...

You got it right- Ed is a true master baiter, whether he is holding his pole or his rod- (Fenwick, Berkley, Wright & McGill) etc. As a former collector of good quality but fishable split cane fly rods (Payne, pre-fire Leonards, Stoner-era R.L. Winstons and Grangers) I always cringed when some other fly fisherman on the same stretch of the AuSable would ask- "Hey, what kinda wooden fish pole you usin', buddy?""-that being said, remember thast Ed's best gun customer is Mr. John Hoff, but as with JFK, he is usually known as Jack rather than John. What's in a name? Everything--
watched "cool hand luke" last night. still a great flick. such great actors and characters...
mikie reminds me of the man with no eyes...

I have a pretty good burn for you , but I don't think you're as dumb as you pretend to be. And I trust you as far as I can spit. Probably less. And pay up. Nobody likes a cheap skate.

Ed: As much yawning as you do, I'm beginning to wonder if you have narcolepsy or severe sleep apnea. Have you ever had a sleep study? Maybe CPAP would help you with your problems??? :-)

Are you suggesting Ed has a C-Pap test? How about we send him to "Otter"- the Delta House grad who became a Hollywood OB-GYN- see the spoof movie "Animal House"--
One strike and your out. All who have been banned at one time or another by our esteemed Doublegun evangelist raise your right hand, collect your personal belongings and remove yourself from the premises. And don't let the door hit you in the ass.....
Just read this thread for the first time. Concluded that Ken's comment from early on was absolutely the best solution and advice.
Ed would have had to leave years ago,he has been banned at least 3 times from here ! There is no place for him to go,he has been tossed for good off every other forum, the rules don't matter to him,forum rules,ATF rules common sense rules.
If we ignore him and don't respond to his posts he will leave on his own.
OK Mike, I'll triple my pledge if you add King Brown to the list. That's $300.00 to get rid of an idiot and a pathological liar.

Don't bother answering since you have oft stated your opinion that Dave should not put up with those who do not meet your personal standards of faux civility. Do you really think he hasn't seen through your bullshit? Everyone with even half a brain has... which eliminates poor ed. And do you really think he's forgotten your posts which he had to remove last year when you tried to torpedo the 2nd Amendment Informational thread on the main forum? You anti-gun Leftist Liberal Obama supporters are so predictability quick to aid and defend each other... just so you can continue to use Dave's hospitality and our First Amendment to continue to undermine the rest.
If it's the money that bothers you, which it clearly isn't, how about a free and fair election to vote ed off the island? You keep jabbing Ken61 about the will of the voters who vote for politicians that are spending the country into oblivion and picking our pockets in order to buy votes. Would you feel the same about a majority that voted ed back to whatever insane asylum he apparently escaped from? And how long do you think you'd last with all of your anti-2nd amendment Socialist drivel?
Tell us again why a Canadian is so interested in bashing our 2nd Amendment , the NRA, and supports anti-gun U.S. politicians.
What do you mean by this ed? Is this a threat, or is this something sexual directed at another man? Either way, it does not belong here. Clean it up.
Are threats like that a cause for banning here ? Lets see if Ed was banned from here,it would be what the 5th or 6th forum he is banned from AND he would have not place to get attention he is getting here. I bet if we ignored him, all of us he would have a panic attack and then disappear ! Some business he has spends all day monopolizing this forum instead of selling guns.
I only mention it ed because you keep posting references to your attraction for men and man parts.
But you didn't answer my question about whether that was a threat you made to Dave.
I thought you said you were going to take a nap now. Are you having trouble sleeping knowing that your own words are making you look like an idiot and someone who must resort to empty threats?
Jagermeister doesn't like it when you criticize other anti-gunners like him.
Did I mention that Jagermeister voted for Obama twice, and ed good thinks anti-gunners like Bloomberg and Cuomo should be elected President? King Brown can only vote for anti-gunners in Canada, and give them support here.

Keith, you have outdone yourself! Jager, Ed and King all in one short post! I love the economy of words. I think you might consider making those two sentences your tag line. Ha! Talk about saving time typing.
I expect that Dave is well aware of this drive so it has to be his choice to follow up. I personally think "jagermeister" ought to be included as well. Jim

Well Jimbo it looks like the First Amendment IS NOT unalienable right.
I will remind all of one important point. This is a privately owned and operated forum not a democracy and constitutional unlimited freedom of speech doesn't apply. Since this is a firearms owners forum those who are on here as trolls, like Good and Jagermieser, and who are continuously obnoxious should be expelled. As far as I'm,and I expect serveral others are concerned; Their unacceptable behavior dictates this action. Jim
He collects WWII guns paraphernalia and has few doubles. You can see some of the stuff by clicking on one of the images he often posts. His current name on Photobucket is Italian sport.
here is your "resume" right here-peddling this CRAP and lying about it,then calling me names-that you WOULD NOT have the stugats to do in person YOU COWARD ! YOU should be ashamed ED Good !
you better because you will own it-and a lot of the crap you sell until your 6 feet under.They might as well throw it in the grave no one will buy it and its a walking liability !
When one fears the discourse, you are neither a leader or a follower. You are a Mob. Agree to disagree. Some might be surprised what they may learn. Wouldn't this be a dull place if we all agreed.
Might look sorta like Brad Pitt but it sorta sounds like you. "leAvE eD AlOnE! pLeaSe leAve eD alOne!"
