I don’t know the story, but I seem to get in on the tail ends of these well-wishes. From what I’ve pieced together, it doesn’t sound pleasnt at all. ---

You are a valuable member of this community, **Sampiro**. I wish you well and hope to read more threads of yours soon. Don’t let the bad apples spoil the bunch. ---

I can’t imagine Sampiro being banned over this, but I don’t see what CarnalK has to do with this. Then again it’s not a history I’m familiar with. Is it known who the writer of that idiotic tripe is? Seems obvious it’s Dragon Ash. But please Sampiro, hang on in there. ---

Absolutely behind you all the way, **Sampiro**. Just adding my voice to the chorus. ---

[QUOTE=eleanorigby] I hope **sampiro** isn’t banned. [/QUOTE] He’d better not be banned. If he is, this just isn’t the place I thought it was. I hope that whatever legal stuff he’s undertaking against the people responsible for those comments actually comes to something, because someone crossed a line. My God, those people on the other board are sad and bored. What a waste of energy. I’ll be thinking about you, **Sampiro**. ---

[QUOTE=Antigen] He’d better not be banned. If he is, this just isn’t the place I thought it was. [/QUOTE] Rest assured, he’s not going to be banned. **Sampiro** ’s a great guy who’s having a rough time of a very bad situation; that some jerks chose to make it even rougher wasn’t his fault, and helps make his decision to lash out at them that much more understandable. At any rate, no banning. ---

I can understand both elements of **Sampiro’s** feelings, as I have a relative who has been in the hospital for over a month and whom will probably never return to what he was beforehand, and because I am used to people treating me poorly. Take good care of yourself, feel free to take off as much time as you need to, remember that all of us who matter wish you well, and, whatever you do, don’t let the bastards win. ---

That was by far the most justifiable meltdown I have ever seen on these boards, and I’m glad the mods recognize that. **Sampiro** , you have my sympathy and my best wishes. I hope you’ll come back. ---

Sampiro, I’ve been a lurking fan of your threads for quite some time. Please accept my sympathy for your mom’s condition. I’m sorry your co-workers haven’t been there for you. Right or wrong, I consider some of my co-workers “extended family” and treat them as such. I’ve helped them with personal crisis outside of work and I’d be hurt if the favor weren’t returned when I needed it. I wish you were my co-worker so I could help you through this time. Sincerely, Adoptamom II ---

Thanks for the info, **Skip Magic**. I feel so bad for **sampiro** -seriously, if there is anything I can do, let me know. As for the immature morons who like to feast on other people’s pain: may what goes around, come around. If there is any justice in the world, they will have their share of pain someday. Not a threat, just an observation. ---

**Sampiro** , my best wishes to you. I’m glad you’re not banned. I don’t exactly know you, but I am a fan of your writings. I wish I could do something to help you. If you need an ugly cartoon of a cat or something, I can offer my services. ---

**Sampiro** is a stand-up individual who I credit for giving me advice that helped me get my life on the right track, when it definitely wasn’t. I feel like I owe him big, so I’m adding myself to the long list of people who love his writing, appreciate him, and want to help however possible. In the meantime, I’ll be hoping and praying for the best possible outcomes for him and his mother. ---

Sampiro, I’ve always liked your posts. You seem like a great guy and I’m sorry that you’ve been having such a hard time of things lately. ☹ I can’t believe that someone would attack you at a time like this. It seems downright psychopathic to show such senseless cruelty to a stranger. I hope that it is some comfort to know that the vast majority of us out there do care and wish you well.
