RE: Jason McGuire (in reply to tijeretamiel)

Not only is J an amazing musician, he is the most generous teacher I've ever known. So he's an iconoclast, so his behavior didn't measure up to the way you judge and discipline yourself. So what? If you can't go through life dealing with all the different personalities you'll come across I wish you well on your mental breakdown.
He was banned because of legal threats, which I professionally know were spurious and groundless. I see people saying he should not be here because he called names and in the same breath calling names at J such as childish. What a bunch of F-ing posers.

That's pretty thin, there isn't a single person posting on this thread that
banned Jason ... We're just repeating what he did to get himself banned.

Jason's a friend and I've met with him and hung out with him and he's super cool and relaxed.
This foro def needs him more than he needs this foro.

RE: Jason McGuire (in reply to Stu)

ahahah Stu

This is like the so called chesnut news in journalism. Some events are repeatly processed aka homeless in winter or hot weather in summer or back to school topics....
This is more or less the same, from time to time the matter comes out and then invariably someone says: oh can we have him back pleeeease!!
Not the 1st time and it will not be the last for sure. So be prepared

If I remember well once there was even a poll about it.

What members whom really want him back should do is to write to Jason via social network and ask him over and over to come back...and see what his response is, instead of posting comments such as 'could you unbanned him'...

and also on a side note, what was the contributions of the others persons Jason was involved with. I mean in the long run.
They just came here to advertise themself and disappeared soon after they marketing their activities. Not very constructive for a community.
Of course this wasn't Jason's behaviour. He was on a sharing mindset rather than on ads one!
