Notice that when Roger decided to lower himself and return to the
group, he entered with a litany of insults aimed at nothing more than
to renew his participation in exactly the same way he left, and stir
up old and long (pun intended) forgotten garbage.

He must think that when he left, the group went into stunned silence
awaiting his majestic return. Oddly enough, while he was gone, there
were some good, on topic, discussions. Even those who traditionally
have spent all their time needling each other, seemed to be able to
converse in an almost friendly fashion while Roger was gone. I wonder
what conclusion might be drawn from that.
