Jeff asked that I post this for him as he can't....

********

IRonMaN has left the building

I was notified yesterday by Gabi that I would no longer be able to post to this community for 30 days because I broke their rules.  I went back to the thread that she referenced and saw that a couple of my posts have been removed.  The bewildering part is that I did not say anything derogatory or offensive in either of those posts.  Although someone had attacked me and was looking for a fight, I walked away without a fight.  I asked Gabi what I had said that broke the rules and in true Intuit fashion all I got was those chirping crickets. 

I have spent a lot of years in this community and made a lot of friends -------- some of them were even Intuit employees. But at this point in time I don’t think I will return after my 30 day debt to society has been paid.  Over the years Intuit has allowed spammers, scammers, and even the Mumbai dancing girls to post here.  But evidently after helping hundreds of people over all of these years, I am not worthy of being allowed to post here.  For that, to quote Flo from the late 70s TV show Alice, Intuit can kiss my grits.

Dear Intuit,

While we're not perfect, there's only about 10 or 12 people on this website that actually answer questions.  And if I do the math, for Intuit to replace those 10 or 12 people with employees who actually have some tax experience it's going to be rather expensive....so you might be better off sticking with the ones you have rather than trying to get the ones you want.

Hope he changes his mind, and comes back he will be sorely missed.

I hope Gabi/Intuit realizes what a valuable resource he is, gives him a raise ;-), and restores his privileges.

He is extremely valuable to all of us.

He never should have been suspended.

Our good friend and colleague Iron Man has helped countless tax professionals on this forum, including myself, and I have the utmost respect and appreciation for Iron Man. I respectfully ask our friends at Intuit to reconsider their decision and to reinstate Iron Man. Thank you.

Unfortunately, Intuit and things related to its tax software has never been good at math.  And they ignore logical reasoning that is supported by math.  Over, and over, and over, and over, and over again.

Come on Intuit......... stop punishing IRonMaN.    You are doing a disservice to us by not allowing him to participate in this forum.

You banned him because of comments he made to some Troll .   Did you ban the Troll also?    Ironic it was comments made in the conversation discussing the Intuit Turbo Tax commercial.

This "banning" proves the shortsighted selfserving culture at Intuit. They cater to TT, and yes it is a larger part of their income stream, but what about all the TT people who pop in on this forum to get answers...they are not banned.

Come back Coyote!!!

1Boo… Hiss… 

in lieu of posting my thoughts, comments, and reactions, I am  preemptively suspending myself for 30 days to save Gabi the paperwork. 

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving 

 

BYW, there’s an amazing MAD magazine exhibit at the Norman Rockwell Museum in the Berkshires.  NRM.org   Not easy to get to but worth the trip.
