blindboygrunt Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Ah , I thought that thread was a useful thing to air views Like a place that deliberately builds a graffiti wall Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Agree. Like a family having a knock-down, drag out, and then making believe it didn't happen. Then, a month later, absent the gory details, the dearly departed is nominated for sainthood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E-minor7 Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Could be right and let's say it worked that way. However the content was there to read for approx 48 hours, ('stored' in the collective memory) and then erased. The thread can be seen as a valve, but was a monument of disharmony and frustrated discourse. A perhaps necessary low-point, but a wagon off the rails. May it rest in peace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldCowboy Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 The bigger the family, the more conflicts(?). One favorite line overheard at family gathering: "I don't believe any of the things they're saying about you." And the world just keeps on turning☺ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fortyearspickn Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Tough call. I'm just bustin your chops. I wasn't on there, and reading it once was enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kidblast Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 So,, yea I guess I had a hand in what push that thread to extinction. And I really do laud KS for his patience and restraint in dealing with us in general, at times. When I read his reply to the request to nuke it, I realized he was right and this is why he's a moderator, and I'm not. Wisdom to know when, and when not to step in with the heavier hammer. It had left the point of reasonable discussion and had flat out gotten ugly. There was going to be no quarters given in that thread. At the end of the day we're all just regular folks, with similar passions. I don't come here to look for controversy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EuroAussie Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I really dont mind a bit of a flare up every now and then. Its all part of the cleansing cycle, and frankly, often are rather entertaining as long as you can keep your distance and sense of humour. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ksdaddy Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Flare ups are good once in a while but as my great grandmother said, "The more you stir an old turd, the worse it stinks." Feel free to use that, by the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldCowboy Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Love this! We need a turd thread! Ok. Among the cowboy crowd, conventional wisdom says "Never kick a fresh turd on a hot day". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flatbaroque Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 Like Punxsutawney Phil or the Swallows returning to Capistrano - that thread has become an annual ritual.

Guest Farnsbarns Posted March 29, 2018 Share Posted March 29, 2018 I agreed because I was seeing red. I enjoy a good bun fight but not if I'm getting emmotional. I don't trust myself not to get banned. Safe to say he's put himself out there, heard the criticism he gave us all the right to offer with his own rules and then gone all butt hurt. Pathetic, cowardly bully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I must have missed the patching up, I just saw some people talking about turds. Seems like we have a precedent now. A mod said turd. This is a revelation. Where is rct, I need to call him a turd.
