I don't trust your judgment on this one, I will need to see his social security number to be sure.

This isn't funny, tribdog may be in prison or dead. He had an "unusual" life.

Well, apparently, I'm resurrected as tribdog to some people.
Can't imagine why. Way too bizarre for me.
Must admit though, this thread is seriously funny.

Now I'm actually interested in this tribdog guy.
Why do his posts usually get taken down?

Well, the mentors would know more than I do about that. I'm guessing a lot of them had profanity.

Not exactly. Profanity is generally filtered. I think it was the subjects of the threads and posts. I saw a number of his posts that were later taken down. The ones I remember in particular were ones where he made fun of various mentors apparently because they had deleted one or more threads/posts of his.

At the time, tribdog was trying to avoid a prison sentence, and I believe that thanks to the intervention of some pf staff it was reduced to parole.
It could be that his parole was revoked, I don't know.
He led a dangerous life.
I hope he's ok.

Last time I read this thread, he was burning his girlfriend carpet, raising a dog, eating bad cheap food, painting his door in the place he rented, and trying to translate from Spanish. Really funny guy I believe. He comes and goes I would say about every 8 months if not more...
