Yeah there's been posts about it all over Alky: Here's the transcript from the other thread:

Well I guess if I'd have checked my email first I would know why, here is gears explanation to all who wonder...

hey buddy, its gear79..
as you have noticed, i have elected to ban my afterdawn account.
dues to reasons of my personal belief, i really do not feel like explaning the actual reasons as to why.
however, i will let you do this for me...
you can copy and paste it to afterdawn forums when people ask why.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i have asked a moderator to render my account inactive for personal reasons. i am sorry to have left no warning or any reasons why. know that i will miss this place and everyone who i became close too and with. i have learned a great deal through this site and everyone in it. my reasons for getting myself banned has nothing to do with afterdawn or anyone as a member. all i can really say is that it was consuming me, my life, and time... and was creating home life problems.
perhaps one day i may rejoin by asking that moderator to re-activate my account with the same name, who knows. i do need a break, and i wish everyone the best. i will visit from time to time but only as a person browsing the forums and looking for information.
thank you all for your knowledge and patience with me... i have asked a member here to quote me by e-mail, so all of you know why !
sincerely..... gear79 !!

That is sad to see him go away just like that man. Oh well, I don't blame him if it's causing his home life to go south, know what I mean. Hopefully, we'll see him browse here and there one day in the future.
Best of luck to our buddy gear79; "A man gotta do what he has to do to survive, only those with courage can revive."

Hence why I said I wouldn't touch that thread with a ten foot pole. AD doesn't need to turn into Dr. Phil. If it did, I kick it's ass and send it on it's merry way, much like the real Dr. Phil.

that's why I'M known as the "doc" round these parts~ :) i do much more than preach these "happy-go-lucky" relationship BS that Dr. Phil preaches...oh, btw, he's not a REAL Dr. anyways...that's just what he goes by on T.V.~ :) yes, it's made him a very wealthy man (with Oprah's help of course), but that does NOT make a doctor in ANY sense of the word...only the "income" part~ LOL

So what do you think of SPL and did you watched it yet? Sammo Hung is awesome right? Yeah, he's acting skills is awesome throughout the whole movie man. Not much of an action (ma) flick, but it's a dark cop/triad flick. I honestly, think that the 2 ending fight with Donnie Yen vs Wu Jing and Sammo is definitely worth it.

Yeah I was a Psyc major, now I'm a Social Worker major. Dr. Phil maniputles simple minded people for ratings. Of course he pays them for their time, but he's a complete sham. If I remember correctly, his degree is in Nutrition or something. Anyway off topic, let's get back on topic. Cheers!

It would be nice if all peoples problems could be solved by someone in 40 minutes by television. I have my degree in Sociology and Masters in Social Sciences and it takes many sessions to help someone. Dr. Phil does it all in 1 hour with commercials, but no one ever says what happens to these people afterward. Exploiting someones problems for monetary gain is not good therapy. That's my rant, sorry all I hate those types of shows.

Dr. Phil is a blow hard talk show host who exploits people for ratings. He berates them, shames them, and acts self righteous as he tells them the answer to their problems. The problem is he's not a Professional Therapist or Psychologist. He has no empathy for the common man and is as hollow as a George Bush State of the Union Address. Off topic, but that guy and people like him make me mad. Dr. Laura, Dr. Phil, and anybody else like them can burn in hell. Cheers!

Dr. Phil, just another a-hole that has the public fooled like so many other celeberties, it's sickining how many people look at these fools like God's, but just reading that name bush, that scumbag makes my blood boil, could'nt even begin to try and say what I feel for that thing.

Yeah he's an idiot. Critical thinking is going out the window in this culture. We immerse ourselves in reality TV, fast food, talk shows, and crappy overbudget, no plot movies. Even on college campuses, the critical thinker is a dying breed. This generation doesn't question authority, is naive, and ignorant of world events. It's kinda scary to think that some of these people are the leaders of tomorrow. Being a Critical Thinker is a double edged sword, I've had many a sleepless night pondering things I can't control. Oh well if that means I don't want to watch "Dancing with the Stars" so be it. I'll trade a few sleepless nights for my individuality.

I never watched his (Dr. Phil) show, I don't know why? I think I enjoy Jay Leno & Connan O'Brien more.

Comedy Central is alright. I hardly watch them now-a-days, maybe it's because I don't have much free times that's all.
