Can you help ID this? Google keeps telling me its crab or shellfish!!!!

Martijn, do NOT try to provoke GieTM or any other member. Doing so could lead to you getting banned as well.

To everyone, remember that we come here to discuss refining precious metals. Anything else is a distraction and a waste of our time, and we don't appreciate it.

You're right. I got really pissed off and carried away by his ignorant rant aimed at me while I tried to explain why others react the way they do. And I got accused of stuff I did not do. But i guess it says more about him than me. At least he is a paying member so he (thinks he) has the right to accuse people of all sorts of things, call people names, break forum rules and not get corrected or banned..

I wonder who will help him get pm's from those ugly oyster shells. I sure won't.

Martijn, GieTM just joined the forum on Sunday. His first posts were OK. He started getting a little sideways Monday evening, but he really just went off the rails yesterday. He was banned this morning. That's just one day. You have to give the moderating team a little time to do our job. You may not see it, but there are often discussions going on behind the scenes about problem members before we actually ban someone.

Thank you for explaining.
All you mods do a great job and I am aware that it takes time. Thanks again.

You're welcome. I understand your frustration. A Troll like this can blow up a thread in short order, making multiple posts in a short period. That can cause other members to try to respond. And in just a couple of days time a thread becomes a 4 page waste of time for everyone who tries to keep up. It is exactly what Trolls want.

To everyone, please don't feed the trolls. If we don't feed them, they starve and move on pretty quickly on their own.
