No idea why he left.

Never had the pleasure of meeting him, so didn't really know him.

Seemed to have 2 personalities. One came across as confrontational, arrogant, annoying.  The other killerwatt I a certain amount of respect for - knowledgable, fun.

Trouble is, on any day, it was unclear which one you'd get.  And the former did take an inappropriate amount of my moderating time. But the latter was :y

I'd rather see him back, he's not everyone's cup of tea but he offered a forthright viewpoint on most things and could even have a laugh at times. It's good to have a bit of stirring up  instead of being nicey nicey all the time, and he was the man to do it.
Knew a fair bit too, and you just knew he wasn't bullsh***ing.

As I said... It's sad to see him leave (and sad to see anyone leave) and would be nice to see the "friendly and helpful" KW back... Just the argumentative one that was a PITA IMO :y :y

I think the days people saw the KW they didn't like he hadn't taken his meds, he often refered to forgetting to take them.  Certainly on the occasions I met him he was sound, civilised and genuinely interesting to chat to.  He will be one of those people who will be able to write a very interesting account of his life when he gets older.  Some of the stuff he has experienced  ....  :o :-X

I can also echo this having met him in the flesh as well.

He did tend to keep the swear filter busy at times but you could rely on him telling it like it is.

This one's left me wide open & i've thought for a few days before replying. We got off on a bad footing, ruffled eachothers feathers & i guess i share some of his downfalls ie gobby, outspoken & prone to throwing the odd strop here & there. So yes i share some of his shortcomings. He's obviously a thoughtful, loyal man & by no means unintelligent.
   Despite sharing some faults with the bloke there is one difference. Sometimes i kick off at something & in the cold light of the next day can see where i went wrong, apoogise & admit i slipped up. I've watched a few skirmishes with other members, managed not to get involved & noticed that despite the voice of reason the next day his views don't change one iota even when he's glaringly wrong he can't see it & can't see other folks opinions no matter how many times he's told. It's not deliberate but i honestly think he suffers from some form of Narcissism.

    I wish him well.

I did'nt use the phrase "flouncing off" niether did i swear or say anything offensive by saying "throwing a strop" as in being stroppy. How can that offend anyone?
   If the word stroppy offends anyone i suggest they dis connect thier internet, make a cup of tea, go to church then watch Antiques Roadshow from underneath a nice warm blanket....who did this & why?
