JamBoi's Last Words...
Today was a weird day here on DU. I had been in contact today with JamBoi to try to gage what was going on with the whole KOS blog posting.

Here's what he had to say

<<SNIP>>
Groan! Did you read my responses at the bottom of the page? I think BfB, just lost his trust for me all of a sudden (with no additional interaction with me) and got it in his head I was a baddie. I'm trying to reach him to clear it up. No luck so far. Maybe its a sign that I've been overly effective against *??? ;-) Thanks!

JamBoi
<</SNIP>>

When I attempted to respond to his message, he had been tomb stoned.

Now I have not been here for that long, however JamBoi was one member that definitely stood out. Yes, he did have several posts over a short period of time, but that just illustrated his passion for what was going on (IMOP).

He also was the one who brought Madsen to this forum. Now I am guilty for still being a little cautious about Madsen's reports (and got flamed for it), never the less JamBoi did bring Madsen to our battleground.

Today was a weird day on DU...

P.S
Here's his blog: http://jamboi.mydd.com :(

7. Bozos for Bush
A former DU member, maybe a present DU member. It's hard to keep track sometimes.

8. Thanks, Straight Shooter. I'm familiar with Bozos for Bush and he was
controversial at times, wasn't he? I think I remember at one point, he was upsetting DU members. Or do I have him mixed up with someone else?

5. Too much speculation going on at this point.
To those of us who interacted a lot with Jamboi, it feels like a loss. I hope everything shakes out and he comes back to DU, but remember that old saying about "There's your story and my story and the truth is somewhere in between." :shrug:

6. Sabra,
If you can give him my regards.

Tell him I apologize for my wondering if I can trust him or not, but it has been a rattling day and I didn't know what to think.

Tell him he never gave me a reason not to trust him so I won't question that trust any longer until he does.

Thanks!

10. IAMREALITY, you did nothing wrong...
I think JamBoi already knows where you stand. In my original post I mentioned that JamBoi was one member that stood out, you are on that list too. Keep doing your thing...

14. I'm very sorry to hear this
I always appreciated Jamboi's posts and never witnessed him being discourteous to anyone. I can't imagine what would justify his being silenced at DU and I hope that this matter can be cleared up asap.

16. Locking
If you have questions about DU policy they belong in the Ask the Admins forum. This type of discussion about a former member is not entirely approriate.
