    Looks like he went to far while on a rant in another thread.

    Will have to see if a "time out" or permanent band.

    It seems to have been the same day he commented on my post. He got pretty personal with another poster on a different thread and...gone. But he probably had plenty of warning. The admins will only let you go so far...

    If you look in the Experienced section and the thread titled Advice there it is. I have met Vic and he's been a square shooter and honest with me and I'm sure I'll see him again. Ironically if I remember correctly it's actually something very similar to what Joseph has said before when CT has listed companies. Take a few minutes and look at the thread for yourself. I'm not sure if it was the deal with CT or the other poster and I guess it doesn't matter anyway.

    For me as a possible or maybe driver I read a lot of threads and posts and as you know everyone doesn't like or want the same type of driving. To me he wants more time to do things around his place. You guys like being gone for a few weeks. To each his own. I followed Vic's thread and sure it definitely wasn't all about trucking, it had plenty of his everyday stuff in it which isn't the worst thing in the world and does show there's more to life than just driving down the road. I'm sure Vic has plenty going on without here but I'll miss his posts. I found it informative and entertaining as well. It's also obvious I read this one too.

    Well well. Can't say I'm upset. He's been a thorn in my side for some time now. He certainly did what he could to get under your skin. This is a guy who couldn't cut it at a mega. He couldn't couldn't do it, so obviously anyone who had any success must have been lying or being paid to say good things. He couldn't truck, and anyone who could was wrong. China and I have had words, but we got over it. I made my point and he made his and respectfully agreed to disagree. There wasn't a whole to-do over it. I also know it takes a lot to get banned. Mastertech and BHW are more than patient and also more than fair. I know that for a fact. You're warned and given chances here. If Victor didn't heed them, then that's his problem. I for one am glad to see "banned or retired" under his name. Gotta learn how to work, kid.

    On to trucking! I'm sitting in Sinclair, WY for the night at the I-80 Travel Plaza/Sinclair fuel stop. It's a decent place with a good amount of parking. I left Lake Wales, FL and it's been decent running except for a major crash on I-24 and a drive by shooting on I-70, and tonight in Wyoming, just west of Laramie, one of Chicago's finest broke his Volvo down in the construction. I'll be spending tomorrow night in Caldwell at the J, and then heading into Oregon on Sunday. 3037 miles on Monday, the beginning of the pay week. I've got all week to run. You better believe I'm going to make the most out of it! Except for the day I pick up 1 whole minute......

    Hey Joseph did they get the parking lot paved and the restaurant back open in Sinclair?
    a month ago it was still a muddy mess


    and I wont miss V either :biggrin_25516:

    back in my other life there was a guy on the docks like him
    would argue any side of the arguement as long as he could be disagreeable
    When I was the President of the Portsmouth Fish Coop we had 27 members
    at meetings we would count on 28 votes because this one fool voted both ways


    disagreeing with joseph never made V a bad fella :biggrin_25526:

    I have lurked here for some time and I could never understand why the mods allowed him to waste so much space with his bloviating.

    So glad to see him go.
