Triple7,.... Neither your position with a website administrator, nor your financial/marketing transactions, are of any importance to me as a TMA Board Director.

Having said that, the Traditional Muzzleloading Association "is" my concern, and I will refute any false information given as "fact" when it is not. Mr. Mathis does NOT receive any money from TMA memberships, Mr. Mathis "was" generous enough to donate a "forum" to the TMA on his website until we git one of our own. Mr. Mathis is "not" on the TMA Board of Directors, or, an Officer of the TMA, or associated with the TMA in any way other than a Charter Member.

I find it troubleing when someone posts "inuendos" without first checking their "facts", as you did when replying to Roundball's original post. Your referal to Mr. Mathis' website being "bigoted" towards modern inlines is also unjustly called for and completely "untrue", as evidenced by his website being openly available to "both" traditional and modern inline shooters.

If you have "no interest" in the Traditional Muzzleloading Association that is fine, but I suggest that "any differences" you have with Mr. Mathis be discussed with him in a manner proper for a gentleman, and not with fellas that cannot hear "both sides" of the story.

I'm very sure there are other folks here that also post on the Muzzleloading Forum, and I hope that if they disagree with "anything" I've said, they will step forward and say so.

If you wish to discontinue this discussion because of it's "personal nature" then I will readily accomodate you in doing so, as I think it would be most benifical to you, and also lend proof that you are a "gentleman".
