He was very knowledgeabe about things Disney, but when he disagreed with you about something he was very rude and condescending. I don't mind it when others don't agree with me, but there's just no reason to get nasty about it. In his defense, he admitted several times that he knew how abrasive he was and that he was working on it. Maybe he's mellowed enough over the past couple years to warrant another look.
Originally Posted By Daannzzz I agree with Mr. Young. Jon was knowledgable but not good at properly debating people and sometimes seemed that he didn't care about how people felt. I did not agree with him much of the time but it happened occasionally such as the debate about if California Screamin' is themed.
Originally Posted By hopemax > Just in case the moderators are listening, I'm not much in favor of dealing with Mr. Nadelberg again. < For the same reason, I wish to ditto this part of the statement. In 15 years of being on online forums, jonvn remains the only time I have contacted the owners of a board to implore them to do something. And that was before he was banned the first time, which was before he was asked to take a break from posting, which was before he was banned the last time. Save perhaps, Mr X at this point, I am unaware of any poster here who has been given as many "second chances."

Originally Posted By davewasbaloo >>>Jon was knowledgable but not good at properly debating people and sometimes seemed that he didn't care about how people felt.<<< Well, he was easier to converse with than just simply cut and paste articles with little extra added...I miss him very much.
Originally Posted By Shiva >>>Jon was knowledgable...and sometimes seemed that he didn't care about how people felt.<<< I think jon cares more than his manner of posting expressed. I was really intimidated by him when I first came to these boards but as I got to know him better I saw a different side to jon. He has a wonderful wit and can be very compassionate...our views are very different but I found that, if I treated him with respect, he usually returned it. I do understand how others might feel about him though.
