Once again. Comment might be here, or not. Might stop in again, might not.
Might even remove or not. have to see...
( ^
That might depend on whether or not I get banned after this comment. I am just gonna tell it like I see it & if ya can't handle it, then do as ya like. I ain't scared. Maybe it is about time that someone told others the truth & see if it gets thrown out... )
Anyway, I am of tired of the crap, seeing folks do some things & then are hypocritical about it because they think it is OK for them, but not for others for some reason that only they seem to know about...but I will try to be good enough to say what I say & let the chips fall where they do & not worry too much about it any more. If I go away again so be it. If I get to stay , so be that too.)
Now, for some explanation for some who I think ought to know more & also for some who should know better about some things, but apparently don't...
For those who want to know....
My first comment here in about 3 or so years, #212 if ya want to go look,
(
It is still "empty") was complimentary about this forum and was to tell folks that I thought this place was a "Gem" in all of the internet forums about woodcraft, for its' actual content about "Blades" & "Bushlore"(
"Bushcraft" & the hell with those a-holes) & that there was a wealth of info in the older, "archive" topics & there were comments & posts that are extremely informative that should not be over looked by the folks that do visit here, and it is still around to be accessed thru "archives", IF someone takes the time to do so.
As well as for folks coming here to take the time & look for such info by exploring the times when this forum was a lot more active than it is now.
Perhaps motivating them to get active & share what they can to improve B&B for others as well.
Next:
The 2nd post (#214) I removed was thanking Wolfy for his reply to that first post, and perhaps I would stop in more, but NOT comment much, but just have a look-see on occasion. ( I told MOE M. something similar around that time in a PM, but also told Moe that I was not too happy seeing some of the anti conservative political crap being talked about, as it did not seem to fit in much with this type of forum & the topics one would expect here.)
Next was:
Post #221, that I removed, was an observation that , even after all this time, I saw someone who is supposed to be close to 60 years old, (
or I thought was about that age), that, (
IMO, of course), is still being the same self centered/narcissistic, (attention seeking for attentions sake), & acting similar to a childish/ immature person, as well as not recognizing being hypocritical in what they are doing/saying, who, at what I thought was their age, ought to know better than to post such comments.
( From a "Global Moderator" no less, in a topic about "moderation"... Geeez.. Ridiculous to see...)
What I read in the posts I saw was a, "Nah nah nah, I have a secret & I am not telling", grade school nonsense & SOMEONE ought to be calling the person out for that sort of kid game BS.
( I DID say something, but removed it in that post #221 in trying to be polite & civil about it & even after trying to be polite & civil, then see a post where I still got some sort of a complaint by that same person about taking away from the gist of the topic by my removal of those observations, & at the same time, the "Kid who apparently never grew out of that childish crap", is trying to play the, "Ive got a secret & not telling" BS kid game & complaining I removed/deleted" comments/posts.
Gimme a damn break.. That is asinine... As well as hypocritical, for doing just the same thing in the topic about supposedly knowing who a Moderator was going to be, but not telling anything about that supposed information. Talk about interrupting the flow from the course of the topic~~!!
It is/was just as much of a "Hijack" as some one removing comments/post, IF folks actually paid attention...
Plain old hypocritical BS, but no one said a thing...
Until post #221,since removed, or NOW~!
Next...
Post # 222 was was just a comment that while I thought things would have become much better since I last logged in to B&B , but that I was not likely to remain as since it appears that the same people are saying the same things & acting the way they did/do, then it was a waste of my time to stop in.
Now... After all of that explanation for folks to understand WHY I removed the posts I did...
This post is, to explain to folks that asked, like WDStan, who wondered, "Why I stopped in & then removed my posts", as well as to once again inform some folks that I think that those same folks,
who ought to know better, just are not able to accept that there are those who recognize their particular sort of BS & just don't want to hang around & keep seeing that same old, same old, crap.
The expectations being from some of us who were here from the beginning, that eventually, the folks who are a PITA here in this forum, will either change or be gone. The need for "Moderation" was taken care of by the rest of the folks here & the forum really did not need too much "Moderation" from anyone, so the folks that needed "moderation" would be taken care of or adapt & learn to "get along".
Well, jusdging from my short time of recisiting here, it looks like that did not happen here, since the topic of finding another person to "moderate" is currently going on in this topic.
Well, it is too bad it was not taken care of by "peer pressure " to get folks to self correct & not require any more "moderation" than that
I'd bet I am not the only one to feel the way I just mentioned. Some folks have not yet returned & if things are going to remain the same here, then they likely will not return either. ( <
Think about that for just a second... Why do folks not return when they can? Something stops them... Could it be that things are still crappy to them & they just don't see a good reason? One more thing to ask is, "other than PW needing a bit of assistance in being around to take care of moderation, why , after 10 years, IS THERE A NEED for more moderation? Hmmm...))
{An old saying comes to my mind... "Crap in your watering hole & no one wants to drink there."
I still see the same old "crapping in the watering hole", so I am wise enough not to drink.". BTW, Some are not & are still crapping here....}
So, now ya'll got an answer about my "removed/deleted" comments/posts in this topic, and I will likely keep looking for some sort of mature, common sense responses to anything I might post here in this topic or even in this forum, If I ever do again.
As well as looking for actual topics & comments about things that are of importance & might even be good info about the whole reasons that Blades & Bushlore(Bushcraft) was started in the first place, instead of some of the other crap I noticed were being discussed for no good reason but for folks to whine &

about current events & the particular political postion they chose to place themselves..
Perhaps I will visit again & perhaps not. Time will tell & if I find out that if there is some Ban Hammer that was forged since I was last here, I may not get the chance.
Take it or leave it, you got "MY" opinion & explanation for the removed comments/posts & I do not expect to repeat it. Read is now because it may not remain & be removed/deleted like the others.
BTW. IF by chance ya can't handle what I posted here, I would suggest ya just keep it to yourself, or share among your friends, if ya have any, as it will likely be a waste of time to even try to type it out if ya expect me to pay any attention to any more whining & other BS from some of ya...
I just don't give a damn about a few of you folks for your BS & you likely feel the same way about me & my opinions.
That is about as polite & civil a way I can think of to say, "Bless your heart." to a few of ya without getting more descriptive about where I think ya ought to shove your sconce.
Cya.
Bye.
