The only person who called anyone a name was Flounder33. He called me a name replying to a post. Not BPS. I hate when threads get deleted and assumptions are made. I think BPS exact words were pud inline shooters. It was not noted to or meant to be to any one person. And his point was someone shooting an animal with a Flintlock deserves more credit then one with another weapon like an inline user. |
Well, now neither of you get a cookie after you finish your dinner tonight.
And by the way, if we on the forum wanted to listen to this political correctness crap, we'd watch the news. I'm sure you've been called worse. |
If memory serves me correctly, and at my decrepit age it sometimes doesn't, the way it was stated was something like "much more deserving than some pud with an inline" which I did take a bit of offense to and stated as much to BP, but to go running to the mods crying about it was a little much in my opinion. It's the internet guys. Grow a little thicker skin. If someone says something you don't like or take offense to (within a certain amount of reason of course) let them know they have offended you and try to straighten it out among yourselves. And as far as the word itself being derogatory, at close to 70 years old I have heard the word used in MANY various ways and one of those ways is synonymous with male lower region. It's a word with many meanings just like Gay used to mean happy and carefree.

Nobody cried to the Mods at all. The Mod saw it himself and did the warning. The Mod explained that already some place. |
The fact is I said something to the effect that anyone who judges a hunter by how many deer he has registered is that word I can't use. I did not mean it in any vulgar sense but in the sense it was used in "Grumpy Old Men". And I did not direct it to any one poster I said anyone who thinks that way. I personally think there is a lot more to hunting than putting meat in the freezer, not that there is anything wrong with that, its just that to me there is a lot more to it.
It doesn't have to be some kind of competition about how many, how big, how fast or any of that. I just don't understand why some people need to take a sport that gets us away from the "rat race" and make it into the same kind of thing many of us are seeking a bit of relief from. Nuff said, I'm sure someone will try to twist these words around like he has with so many other things I have ever said on here. |

Guys let me jump in here before too much water goes over the dam. I am not sure but this forum seems to be a constant source of complaints which has resulted in a fair amount of moderator time. To set the record straight I am not normally one of the mods who monitor this forum. I don't know the characters or much of the history so it is a bit difficult for me. It was me that approached BPS about not using that term. It did come via a complaint which is initially fielded by the admin team but I wasn't privy to who it was that complained other than an email address. I asked BPS to not call anyone that and he agreed to stop. Plain and simple request and he did the right thing.

I emailed the HuntingNet administration here requesting a change of username this morning. No response yet..... maybe tomorrow. Speaking of Jon, I will register there at Frontier as GoexBlackhorn. Not sure if I will be successful in my attempt, after self-suspending my membership there about six months ago. |
