Farewell from Ira

Hi All,

Fodor's refuses to explain why they have banned me.

Bye-Bye

So long Ira. Sorry to see you go.

I was thrown off the Lounge years ago under a different name, and I can only surmise why. A few other people Fodor's wrote and asked that I be re-instated but to no avail. That is what happens when kids are in charge.

Stay well.

This is very sad news. I'm sorry to hear this Ira. We've all been waiting for you to show up again!

This is nuts. Maybe there was something I missed, but I never saw anything inappropriate from Ira.

We are missing you and Dukey. Can we all write to the fodor people? Doug Stallings shows up sometimes. I am writing.

The best possible way to get rid of the lounge for sure. Ira has been here forever. This place is really starting to smell bad.

It wouldn't surprise me if both tomsd and Dukey were banned. Nothing much here surprises me. I'm wondering if Fodors is even interested in having any kind of travel boards anymore. The used to be active and lively and now just kind of dull.

I like them because they are easy to navigate and I don't find some other sites as user friendly. But, that's really all they have to offer. I'm betting that they will go the way of AOL.

He's only banned from the Lounge, effectively. I get that ira was a prolific poster there, but he can still give travel advice...
<I'm wondering if Fodors is even interested in having any kind of travel boards anymore.>
I think it's pretty clear they don't want the Lounge any more, but that's not the same thing.

Correct (about Dukey). People have been wondering what's up.

Wonder if he was triangled? Don't know what the last thread he was on was about.

Ira, Why can't you stay and just post under this new name?

Sorry ira. I cannot for the life of me think of why you, of all posters, would get banned. Tomsd was banned and I can understand that, but you? Please keep posting under your current screen name until Fodor's comes to their senses, (which I am thinking they no longer have), and allow the old ira back in.
