United Front

Duck's hoop

Lads / boys / guys / chaps / ladies even. On reading some of the latest threads it's very apparent that some people rub others up the wrong way.

I'm all for taking the pi$$. But we're a minority group, probably not really 'understood' by the majority of peeps on this site. Pointless infighting and bickering probably doesn't do the PR thing any good at all.

Would we not be better keeping it reasonably together, intelligent and on topic, showing ourselves in a better light? These forums are public after all.

Trying to 'prove' who's better / more knowledgable or whatever comes across as a bit of a pi$$ing competition.

Argue the toss by all means, just not by being an arguing tosser.

This is not meant or directed at anybody specific, as we all have our moments, I just sincerely believe we'd better serve our common cause if we laid off each other a bit.

Or just flame me. (I dunno if that's even still in use but I'm old).

Hard to have a united front when a certain poster is causing problems by continously giving incorrect and stupid advice and when he is corrected he wants to get back on topic even when he is more often than not the one that took it off topic in the first place.

I could go on but what's the point when certain Mods want us to leave him alone despite the fact he seems to be seriously lowering the tone here with his silly utube videos of women with guns.

He seems to know something about every topic that comes up here and every thread you read he's there talking ****e.

If anyone corrects or even challenges his opinions, they now risk being accussed of "cyber bullying" :rolleyes:

So to answer your question,a united front .............. not likely

Hmmmmm............. I wonder who bunny shooter is talking about

bunny shooter

Just to add ......................

a certain poster here does rub me up the wrong way and I have now put him on my ignore list as tbh I can not be bothered reading or looking at any more of his childish and imature ****e !

My 2 cents worth

Now back on topic :P

Also I will still continue to be an argumenative git so be warned :)

Think you might be misunderstanding the sentiment of my post gunhappy ie.

I'm with you but I'm only talking about us, shooters. Be it paper, balloons, live game whatever, people who know guns/firearms and aren't freaked at the very mention of the word.

Let's be sensible.

Pegged them out myself. It's looking cliquey when no matter what you say you're made out to be a dope.

And yeah. I do a good enough job on my own.

The facepalm wasn't aimed at you DH, but at Bunny...

...and it's not a bad sentiment, it's just that it's not worked for our community for the last sixty years by my count (and I've no reason to think it worked before that either). The 2% rule, amongst other things, just kills it everytime.

:eek: really

Well recently the 2% rule doesn't look a great option either

Yeah, but the recent issues have been with 0.002% or so, rather than all the 2%...

Well if the 98% were kept informed by the 0.1998% maybe the 0.002% wouldn't have gotten away with it

Just my 2 cents worth can we please get back on topic please ;):D

Ah the cut, thrust, parry and feint. Did someone mention self loading rifles?

This is the part that annoys me! When I ask a question on boards I do so hoping to hear of the experiences other people about the issue or whatever. I will already have looked up google to find as much info about an issue first so somebody coming on and giving an answer which IMO sounds like bull**** is pointless!!

If I had nothing better to do I could easily look up the answer to every question here on boards and answer it for them as if I knew about it :rolleyes: but what is the point in that!

And whatever meaningful info and experience this certain poster can sometimes have will often be disregarded by the people who think he is just talkin ****!!

Thats my two cents!:D

dCorbus

To sum up most of us and our attitude to fighting evil, righting wrongs, and setting the world firmly on its moral axis :rolleyes::D:p:



(Thanks to sparks for "allowing" the theft of this!)

Why, oh why, can't we all just get along:D?
