were you on the giving or the recieving end?
For $60k I hope it was receiving!
that is funny because Paulson and Brooks used to be banned. Brooks came back under a different name and wasn't banned. They just let Paulson back here and he became an Elite.
Who was Brooks?

he was a pansy ass bitch, and then he got banned for being a lame pansy ass bitch.
More specifically, we found out he was a re-incarnated pansy ass troll, so as with the AT rules, all trolls are to stay banned.

It's a different case though, Grasshopper's alter-ego was a FS/FT troll, which is why he's banned for life. Paulson was only thrown out temporarily on bad behavior, and has since then improved dramatically.
