Please PM me. You're over your limit.

Shoot, LOL, and I just deleted some this morning, too. Ok, deleted some more. It's BC's fault, he's got me running around hither and yon relaying messages. I take it back, I'm glad he got permanently banned! LOL

Just write it on here I dont do that pm thing no more.
Anything I say on there I can say on here.

Well.... I can't. I believe it is against the rules to relay messages from banned members on the open forum.

If they cant get me on here they can go on the CNTA trapping forum,my handle is Wahbush over there.

I think the news is some Karens got BC banned.

…. Goodness boco … just delete some pm’s lol

Probably worried yote is going to request some indecent pics from him

Id be more worried about savel request that

… if you got some send them

… kind of boring around here tonight lol

Wasn't there enough excitement for you for one day? Geez the last time you made a post about the forum being boring it resulted in a member getting permanently banned....that WAS just today remember lol.

Get back up in the woods and look for some yankee canoers.

Keith

… that stuffs funny… but kind of getting old

…. I updated my linked in picture to account my gray hair

…. Go check it out lol

That wasn't Savell's fault. He didn't go crying to Paul.

…. I think she was just joking

… but free BC ! lol

I know she was joking, but I was pointing out the truth anyway.

…. Yessir Mr Trapdog .. I’ve never told on anyone that I can recall lol

You generally do not fit the description of a Karen.

Who's Karen?

Trapdog, when a moderator moves or reports a post, do you call him a "Karen" and say he "tattled"?

I think he got himself banned by crapping all over Paul's rules - over and over again. I'm not sure who got rid of his posts yesterday, but ultimately it was Paul.

You think there could have been some individuals that were taking it farther that just reporting? Like to a point they were lobbying for his ban just because they didn't like his opinions. Someones that had an agenda to get him banned? Yes it was Paul's decision and I'll respect that, its those that were hiding behind the scenes and working to get him banned just because they didnt like his opinions. Be intresting if they stop there.

That wasn't the case at all. Mr Paul defined what he wanted and the results were as stated, in fact, his wishes were trampled on deliberately over and over again.

Mr Paul isnt swayed like that. He sees for himself the intent of comments and makes his own decisions. Its easily discernable what the intent is from someone's words.

Actually, Mr Paul has been quite patient for a long time with some issues. So have the mods.

With all due respect, Ms. Sharon, it was not a one way street. For years I have seen where multiple people would jump on BC just for posting a well-thought-out, factual post, just because it did not align with their political viewpoints. They would team up on him until he would react, and then as soon as he did, they would start calling for him to be removed from the site. Ridiculous behavior, imo. In fact, until I began noticing that behavior, I did not like BC myself. But when I looked at the reasons why I did not, I realized it was just because I often did not like what he had to say politically. And when I looked at that further, I realized that quite often, the things he was saying that I did not like, he was correct about.

So, it got to where when BC posted something I did not agree with, I would need to look into the issue. Sometimes he was right, and I would have to concede that he was. Oftentimes though I still felt he was wrong, and then I would reply to him with a researched and thought out reply as to why I felt he was wrong. It would have been a lot easier to just call him names and say that he shouldn't be allowed to post because I don't agree with him, though....which is by far what most choose to do. That is sad.

Did BC's post from yesterday break rules? Yes it did. But imo, barely. His post had a slight anti-Jewish tilt towards it, but it wasn't blatant, far less so than other posts that are on this forum right this moment. And while it was clear he was not a fan of the President, I also saw no outright bashing of the man. His post from yesterday may well have warranted a ban, but a life ban? Seems more than a bit excessive to me. I am hopeful that once the war ends and tempers simmer down some, Paul might reconsider the permanency of the ban, as he has for other members such as jbyrd. I believe the loss of BC is a net negative for the site as a whole.

No doubt in my mind Paul his been very patient with some of us

It wasn't because he had differing opinions politically, Angela. It was other very obvious statements that Mr Paul decided were out of line. They were comments that went way out from mere difference of views given in respect. Personal.

I won't rehash specifics , but it came under the intent of "using nuanced stuff that makes the point but doesn't cross any lines".

Even then, he went way beyond that .

It was not simply different views .

What happened now?

I miss all the fun.

Perhaps it was meant the way some chose to take it. Or maybe it was just a generalization. I wish he'd have used the name Prometheus or Einstein instead and maybe then we'd not be having this conversation. Even so, seems fairly mild as far as insults go. Savell can sling out better insults than that even when he's on the N/A beer, LOL.

I suppose the perceived "mildness" of an insult depends on where the barrel is aiming.

Mr Paul sees that clearly.

As to being obvious in accusation, not just generalization, take that up with Patrice and Zim.

Well, that is true. Some folks have very thin skin.

Patrice and Zim and others are anything but thin skinned. You know this well.

Others are not to blame . Only the one instigating false accusations of another's character.

Respectfully, Angela.

We are doing a lot of speaking for Mr Paul. No disrespect meant towards Paul

What did he post that was a false accusation?

"Like sand in a hour glass..."

.

How did I get the ignominious honour of headlining this stuff?

Your the perfect mascot as much as u enjoy a little friendly head butting

The "sand " is about gone, Dave.

Angela, that question sounds just like the style of baiting someone else is famed for using.

I will not stoop.

Yes Sir, when someone speaks highly of you and your thoughts, that is a compliment.

Boco. Keep making those nice fox hats please. I still recall the one you made using all the contrasting colours of the dark legs, white underparts, and bright red. I have never seen a hat like that since.

I mean if the guy wasn't across the line he was sure on it and more than once. Enough so that I have read several different threads on the topic and have seen where Yote was in there defending him too. She must be a good friend sticking up for her boy. I remember when I was in school and would get in trouble reporting that I hadn't done anything my dad would say well this is for one of the times you didn't get caught then. Play with fire. I'm guessing he's not really wondering why he got the boot... Besides... if Marty can make a comeback, lets see what the guy is made of. lol.

You got me lost, Ms. Sharon. I don't know why you think I am baiting, or who I remind you of.

On the post that I saw, the one that you replied to just before it got deleted, BC said, in essence, that you did not have to be a genius to know that people on here report you for stating beliefs that go against their own. In place of genius, he used the name of an honor society that someone on here happens to be a member of. Was that an intentional dig? Maybe. Probably, even. But we'll never know as BC is not here to tell us.

But I do not see how any of that supports your claim of BC making false allegations.

BC could never comment on anything without a jab at Trump or his supporters, it got old.

Sharon, i guess i am fortunate that i dont read the long winded political stuff
It gay and boring.
Any "Fun" post, tend to disappear.

If someone asks why.,,, I it declared the the kingdom said it is so. If you dont like it you have the option of exile.

I understand that the king is tired.
No delight is obtained from the Jesters.
The king works hard at maintaining order.
His subjects work hard at building the kingdom.
Many great worriors have fallen.
Kingdoms begin to crumble.

I didn't realize we could turn a member in. What's the fun in that? Would have liked for BC to post some catch pics tho. Don't see much here from Okies!!
There's 1 or 2 guys on the Wilderness forum who don't like me. Guess I should be careful.

Beware of woman in mans clothing.......

And men in womens......

Pretty much the way I saw it. Oh well, doesn't matter much now, I guess.

Echo chambers are unproductive

What productivity was BC’s conflicting viewpoints lending to Tman?

I still think he was a bot

They don't produce random thread deaths , banned individuals , or hurt feelings

This^^^^

I have no idea what happened here. But are viewpoints and perspectives different from our own really that awful to be exposed to?

They have caused me to research several issues much more thoroughly than I would have otherwise.





Don't they? The creation of this one has led to at least one person that I know of leaving the forum. One that shared a good bit of trapping knowledge too, once you got him talking.

This person left ? .......why ?

Because BC got banned ?

So would this fall under hurt feelings ?

I don't know what it would fall under AG. I doubt it was that he got banned.

Interesting. Guess I don't have a clue what's going on anyway ...... lol

BC is just arrogant. Can't remember who it was but remember a Tman member was getting an online degree. BC talked to them like their degree was nothing more than a diploma from a Cracker Jack box.

It was me... the one taking up for him, lol.

Well that was wrong of BC but not the least bit surprising Angela. Going to miss my discussions with BC over employers knowingly employing illegal immigrants.....

Now what did ya have to go and drag Carl into this for, J, lol.

See Lug, there ya go, another way BC increased productivity. I may not have been starting classes at Ole Miss last week had he not razed me over my online degree, LOL.

If you guys want me to pass anything along to ole BC let me know, I will likely be seeing him at our Mensa meetings.

LOL!! I was just listening to my Will Smith cd when I came across this thread. Was really hoping it was going to be trapping related. But nope!

I think you are giving him way too much credit. I think you probably would’ve continued your education and started in person classes had you never heard of BC.
