This 
is a non-starter for me.  This is TJ's list and he bans whom he 
likes.  For us to start a popularity contest is complete and utter 
nonsense.

  ProposalGentlemen:Sitting on the sidelines 
  during these last few weeks, I have been continuously amazed at the creativity 
  and intelligence on display. However, instead of the usual humble attitude and 
  courtesy shown, we have a stubborn, obstinate and uncooperative new voice 
  suddenly shattering our usual aura of humble help.In my attempting to 
  arrive at some meaningful way of showing displeasure at any participants 
  relentless disturbance of the Groups demeanor, I have arrived at the following 
  proposal.       1. All official members of 
  the AmiBroker discussion groups are encouraged to 
  participate.      2. The process of removing a 
  member from membership is called "Toasting".      
  3. To "Toast" a member would require that 20 "Toasts" be obtained from the 
  membership.       4. A Toast is a $5 donation to 
  AmiBroker, in the person of "Tomasz Janeczko" 
  <amibroker@xxxxxx>.      5. 20 "Toasts" 
  would repay the cost of AmiBroker to TJ, and enable TJ to ban the "Toast" 
  recipient, without loss of income. (If truth would be known, TJ would most 
  likely be the first to "Toast" -- just to get the ball 
  rolling!)      6. Upon TJs' returning the cost of 
  AB to the Toast recipient, a lifetime ban is imposed on ever returning to any 
  AB list.Think of it, a democratic means of ridding ourselves of very 
  intelligent but obnoxious, self centered, strong willed "little people". Most 
  "Toasts" would fail, and TJ should use the contributions as income. The extra 
  income would provide additional proof to TJ that WE CARE, and is another 
  visible means of showing our support for him, his family and his 
  product.On Tomasz's part, he need only add the cost of a "Toast" ($5) 
  on his ordering page so that we might conveniently use our Credit 
  Cards.The recent Indicator Poll is an example of how difficult this 
  democratic procedure might be, however the cause of the action might take heed 
  of the tide of ill will displayed by the list participants. The threat might 
  just be a positive tool in keeping the group orderly.All those in 
  favor of the "Toast", light up the sky with your replies.Best Regards, 
  Hal Send
