Running people off? Maybe, but I doubt it. There is another side to that coin. Seeing that the moderators have started enforcing forum rules again is why I came back.

RE: WHY
 

Arthur can you plz tell me what rules you think were broken? I know the heated my bow is better than your bow gets real old but you can find things out about a product that way.

I would say there was a number of the rules broken.
Here is the link to forum rules.

RE: WHY
 

The threads that were locked had violations of rules 4 and 6, with a smattering of 3's. This thread will probably be locked too, because it's a violation of #5.

RE: WHY
 

#5 yes 4 & 6 could mean anything we say, so we cannot say 1 thing bad about any product or hunting practice? #3 is a toughie meaning you can only say good things about a product.So if all we can talk about is "good products" and "good hunts" why so many forums? In this case we could get by with one.

To me, Rob, Frank, Matt, and Chad are the only mods that should be allowed to lock up my posts.
All the other Mods can't appreciate my humor. :)
I guess, some people might think I dislike Eastwood and Davidmil from my digs at them on the other posts.
I enjoyed joking around with them, no harm intended.
Didn't mind Eastwood's digs at me at all.
He's alright in my book.
Actually, unlike some folks, I love the arguments and name calling at the Bowsite.
It cracks me up at times to see people call each other idiots, stupid, dumba** and so on.
Yeah, I admit it. I have a sick sense of humor.
I think Pat is cool for allowing it. <img src=icon_smile_approve.gif border=0 align=middle> JMO.
It's a change of pace from the sameness found at most other sites.

RE: WHY
 

If I lock a post there will ALWAYS be an explanation within that post as to why I took the actions I did. I do that so you ALL know who locked it and why, and if you disagree you can e-mail me. If I move or delete a topic the poster receives an e-mail from me explaning. When you have the member volume we have here there will always be someone unhappy, it's impossable to please everyone all the time. You see I even left this post open. <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>. Sagittarius, I'm devastated I didn't make your list <img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle><img src=icon_smile_tongue.gif border=0 align=middle>.
You have to releize this is not that other board you mentioned, this is a family site with many young people. We do want to be a possitive influence on our young don't we? Please keep in mind what and why we are trying to do here. My e-mail is open to everyone and anyone that wants private discussion on something. I myself was run off by what this board was turning into and was asked to moderate and help bring it back to what it once was. I accepted because I was like you, on the other side of the coin and my heart is here so I knew what the problems were and am trying my best with the help of all the other moderaters to make it happen. I know we are makeing progress because of the e-mail I do receive. Just my thoughts.

RE: WHY
 

I post less than I used to due to some of the crap that gets going but I still think it should be allowed and you guys who monitor this stuff should remember how you felt about the little puke who got to be the hall monitor. If it gets foul or threatening then cut it. If it is exposing an unethical or unscrupulous hunting business then let it go. If that business happens to be a sponsor then get rid of them and walk the talk. My $.02 and thanks for the forum.

RE: WHY
 

AW GEE... you been digging on me SAG....? I didn't realize. I guess I better pay more attention.<img src=icon_smile_sad.gif border=0 align=middle> Let me write that down somewhere so I'll remember I'm suppose to owe you one or was it two?
