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.

@1569 Just please take the time to review this thread. @IronMan has been a friend to all of us for many years. From Champs to ex-champs, to newbies, he helps everyone. Not to mention, he brings levity and joy to us in terribly stressful times.

Not sure of his 'crime', but his contributions to this board far, far outweigh that transgression I guarantee.

As I was meditating last night 😉 a vision came to me of info that "he who shall not be named" wanted shared :

Everyone that has gone to bat for me - I do appreciate it. And in appreciation, I will add them to my Christmas list. Just let me know how many pounds of lutefisk they would like and and that smell that arrives by way of UPS on Christmas Eve will be their Christmas dinner from their old friends Sven and Ole.

And Jeff, your thanks & appreciation is *all* that I need. I'll take a hard pass on the lutefisk.

I, for one am disappointed in Intuits decision. Jeff has helped countless people over the years and made laugh countless others. Jeff helped me out and I decided to give back because of him.

Intuit is a bit shortsighted in banning or suspending IRonMaN. Intuit chose to decimate their CSR department and has left those of us in these forums to help out other users. Quite frankly the CSR they do employ would be better off answering 1+1 questions than software issues.

Question - with Klingon's you move up in rank by "removing..." your superior officer. Hopefully only temporarily, but do we all move up in Intuit's Levels by IRonMaN's situation?

I see some good speeches here. If any of you ever decide to run for public office I'll vote for you ---------- just tell me how many votes you want me to cast in your favor. 😁

It's nice to be back. Intuit jail food isn't the greatest. The bread is stale and the water is always warm. 😜

Glad you are back.

Sad this thread was even necessary as you said NOTHING out of line.

I 'know' this is Intuit's forum but since they expect US to handle the vast majority of the questions, maybe they need to reconsider their dictatorial actions.

I do have to say I'm honored that Jeff asked me to share his info during his ban. Especially since it has garnered me SO many votes - Christmas is coming, the Intuit sponsored ACME catalog will be out soon.

Now I'll be able to get everyone gifts. Well, maybe not *everyone* 😉

Welcome back! We pooled our ACME stamp collections to raise bail for your early release.

Do you feel that it is really an expectation on their part?

@strongsilence Yes.

Numerous posters here say that Support told them to come here.

Thanks for the bail money. If you ever end up in the slammer, I’ll do the same for you!

Not that it really matters, but you know my curiosity sometimes gets the best of me. At one point there were well over 100 plus thumbs up for this post, now there are 75 showing. Is there a thumb stealer lurking out there? Is someone building another Frankenstein and they need extra thumbs in case some of them start falling off due to poor quality control procedures?

Actually another handful of thumbs disappeared between the time I started to post and finished.
