Big John, Buck Magnet, Mr4pt..........that' s it!.........



OK, Who' s next!?;)

Seriously, I' m hoping that we can again start to police our own ranks as we have done in the past, rather than get wrapped up in personal arguments and other assorted nonsense. Thanks for the help in dishing out some " Cyber Smacks" to those who deserve them.
This stuff hasn' t been tolerated in the past and will not be in the future as well, as long as I am wearing this neat little official plastic Huntingnet Deputy badge and secret decoder ring.:D

Good Job Matt - Thats the way to stick out your NECK[:o][:o]:D

RE: ** IMPORTANT ! ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ. **
 

Well said Matt,this will always be the number one board
around here!!:D

RE: ** IMPORTANT ! ALL MEMBERS PLEASE READ. **
 

Matt for Presedent, good job, good post buddy, has to said every now and then. One more thing, I would like to see all the ethical and do you follow this law or that law kind of posts stopped. Seems to be a main reason for some bad typeing and fuel for the anti' s.

Name calling????? What the heck, are you nuts? Who do you think you are? A mod or something? Man the power has gone to your head!!!!! Back off!!!! ;)

Good post, it was getting pretty old, the thing that gets my goat is some folks always try to keep an old dispute alive with little snide remarks stuck in at times, not snide enough to really be called bashing, but just enough to throw a litlle salt in an old wound.

Matt I know I have not been around the board very long.. but I am glad you have spoke up on this issue. I have gone back and read some of the posts from way back and have noticed how the " mood" of some of the postings now are much more agressive than before. I know that people are not going to agree on everything and we each have a right to our own opinion, that is just one of many things that makes this country great!! But I do feel there is a line between opinion and agression and that line has been crossed in some posts.


I watched this board for awhile before joining and made the choice to join because I really liked the vibe I got while reading the posts! I mean there are alot of people in here who truly want to help others learn about and grow in this passion or addicition:D we call archery! I have devolped a few friendships so far and made one pretty good friend and new hunting partner (well he keeps on about me taking him to one of my stands;) ) and I look forward to making many more on here. It is great to be able to talk about different hunting styles and situations from around the country andlearn from them all. I am by no means new to hunting I have been hunting since I was around 6 and started carrying a gun when I was 8 and I am now pushing 30 ... ahh so old but yet so young lol.... But I feel I will never learn everything there is to learn and this board is a wonderful and one of the best tools I have in my aresonal besides hands on in field learning!

I am glad and proud to be associated with this board and feel lucky to be able to be a member. I think that Rick (mdbohuntr) was right in that we need to tread lightly as not to give the antis any more fuel for there fires. They do a good job of turning facts aroudn to meet there criteria so lets not help them!!


Well I did not mean to run on so long and I know that I am new so my .02 cents may not add up as much as others but figured I would put it out there anyway for what its worth!!


OH yeah...Taz..... I will be deading back to that stand this afternoon if you wanna follow me so you know what tree its in;):D lol

Matt,
This is a great board and I want to personally Thank You for trying to keep it that way.

Have a great day!:)

Why, you no good ratcha-fratcha-sarnovabas.........:D

Though I do not think it was as bad as some of the times in the past, I definitely noticed a tide rising as well. Nice post Matt. Now where did leave that HRAOP picture laying around at?

;)

Speaking of policing our ranks...now that Rick has stepped down, I nominate Taz for moderatorship. :)
