I haven't participated in a locked thread for a while now but .....if it's a thread I'm involved in, the only problem I have with a locked thread is if I'm not the one to get in the last word just before the thread is locked! Like lots of things in life, "timing is everything" ! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

You know that is the biggest problem I have when I have had to lock one. I hate when the last word is the idiot that is causing the problem.

Greg I'm sorry for my part in having this thread locked. IMO it should be Ross and I being repamanded vs. this young mans thread being locked. Thanks, Howie Hill

My apology to you all. :oops:
What a nice way to man up. Not sure you were the problem but at least you show you can and will take responsibility when needed. I was also involved and I hope we all were trying to steer it back on course but sometimes it just doesn't work.

Thanks Howie

Well I was involved in a thread months back that got me reprimaned by Grant & I quit the board because of it.I ask the particular person that kept calling me out to stop & I would stop but he wouldn't & I didn't ether.We all have something said to us or say something we should't at times it's human nature but hopefully are mature enough to get over it. :wink:

No, I believe that was directed to me and I wonder if Ezzy would call me an idiot ...in person. :mrgreen:

I'm about done being bullied by the Mods here. I have been called an Egotist by one and an Idiot by another.

Nice place Rob, I'll see ya.

We have a policy here of not allowing members, including moderators to be threatened. The deed is, regrettably, done.

I try to avoid such discussions. Arguing with an idiot is a no win situation, "They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience".

All of us, even the mods can get worked up. Members & mods have generally have done a pretty job of avoiding the use of derogatory terms as they are unnecessarily offensive & add nothing to the conversation. I wish we could all get by without using terms like idiot or egotist but I know that's not always going to happen when tempers flare. I know I wish I were gifted with the ability to "be slow to anger and quick to forgive". I also wish all of my comments were positive encouragement & I was always able to avoid providing criticism & judgment.

I do understand Greg's absolute intolerance of any perceived threats & I respect the jobs the mods have done in not allowing the GDF to go up in flames as many forums have been known to do. Time to move on.
