Thankyou! It's very much appreciated.

[Ken]

Thank you, Chris!

[woodsman86]

Great! Thanks.

Are you kidding me? You just did it. You revert to name calling for anyone that can't hold a discussion. That's too rich. That's exactly how the threads run that's why we've tried to stay away from it. "feeble, weak minded spineless wanna be dundee posers". That's hardly respectful in anyone's book.



Wouldn't that be a breath of fresh air?

I've never called anyone a name or flamed or disparaged anyone personally on this forum RICK, If I talk about someone specific that's another story. If I've made a generalized statement then its up to the individual to decide if they fit into category of who or what. Don't paint me as a bad guy and lets not get into semantics here, thanks.

I'm just a bit more truthful, realistic and honest with most issues. Some people think that by sugar coating the facts or the truth, that they somehow feel better about themselves and the situation. Lets get real, the problems that effect all of us are not going to go away by simply glazing them over with sunshine and fluffy kittens.

Now its up to the forum owner if they want to allow grown up man talk on a political side or a place to rant about issues. If you think its going to be all positive then you are very mistaken. There are going to be people who do not see things the same way, that is just life. Can everyone be adult about it, I think so. I think its informative, entertaining and maybe it will enlighten a few people.

The real question is, is this good for this community. If the issues that effect survival, hunting, camping, and just daily living are too much to handle for this community, then don't do it. I think that most clear thinking adults can handle it as long as there are no personal attacks, no gang flaming on some one else who has an opinion.

Awesome, a sub forum, thank you !!!!!

[Rick]

then most likely these same feeble, weak minded spineless wanna be dundee posers,

I'm not certain what you call that but three others said the same thing to you. This is why political discussion has been avoided in the past. Folks resort to this kind of name calling when people disagree. Hardly semantics when you call someone a name. But whatever. Enjoy your new forum.

You Sir, are the problem as your comments are baseless and without merit for the sake of being vile. After 3 tours in Iraq, I will use my freedom of choice to say something about the negativity that has spread here causing a great decline in active membership. Anytime you want to put your credentials on the table, I would be happy to see them. After 54 posts, you would be one of those "new" members not allowed to participate for reasons clearly demonstrated by your comments.

Do you make it a habit of being hostile and negative toward others because you've got a different opinion ?
Truly unnecessary hostility for someone with your outstanding credentials. You possibly should abstain from the new sub forum, you might not like it.

[Rick]

I seriously think you are missing the point. How is it everyone else is wrong but you? Frankly, I didn't see anything hostile in his response to you. Perhaps you should re-read what you wrote. I will give you fair warning that if you address others in any forum the way you did in that post it won't stand. The new forum is not a license to attack others.

[welderguy]

Zeroed4x, You seem to be the hostile and negative one, No you didn't call anyone in particular any names but generalizing people you just met is not much different. My guess is you're not here to share and learn survival knowledge. But only time will tell.

[RandyRhoads]

I posted what I have posted in the past, because I cared about the well being of forum members..........And now I just don't care anymore. I will continue to post a little, but never anything the least bit negative.

That sounded pretty negative.

[Ken]

I would like to take this opportunity to announce that I just finished a crock of the best home-made French Onion Soup I've ever concocted.

[randyt]

Sounds yummy but you really should have posted that in the cooking forum. If memory serves (sometimes it don't) there is a "what I had for supper sticky" perhaps that would be a good place for your french onion soup.

Ohh boy, I had to think about this reply. Hostile, maybe in your opinion; unnecessary, not in my opinion. There is nothing in the majority of recent post by you that contributes anything of substance. If you are insinuating I am unable to handle a political conversation, you are very wrong and base that on minimal knowledge of me or the other members. What you need to do read back a few days and see where I raised this issue to the top and what my argument was. It was about separating these topics from this forum where it is not meant to be highlighted. That was either by banning it all together or the compromised solution of a new forum section.

BTW: Feel free to continue spewing your hate for LEO in the new forum...it will only accomplish your s/n being added to the troll thread sooner.

I know. I was trying to change the subject. That's all.
