Best wishes to our Bri-ish brothers. 🤝 Do you think that's funny? Are you trying to make a point? That's is just plain stupid! I think you owe some apologies to both sides of the pond on this one. Do you under stand... good god man,use your head. Now I know why my dear friends have left this forum, this place has gotten sick. The moderators here really need to grow some balls Using the word of the great Pip, "I'm out of here!" 5 2
brad1 Posted July 4, 2020 Posted July 4, 2020 Ghost man you really are incredibly immature. And seem to have no sense of decency. Please leave this forum and do not return. Bill! Say it ain't so! DON'T LEAVE US!!!!!! 3

They are some of the tools that literally built this country into what it is. Try surviving a winter in the wilderness without a gun. Automatic firearms are just plain cool IMO. Notice I didn't say weapons. Firearms. But yeah Brad1 maybe it's time I move along. Thanks a bunch. stick around- they aint the bosses 1

fortyearspickn Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 "stick around, they ain't the bosses". The 2 who pushed back have 12,000 posts compared to your 853. ' 'are you multi-personality'' ? I prefer to call it consensus gathering. Some folks read comments that irritate them and meekly decide to read another thread. Or go to another forum. Others, however, decide to push back. Ghost has apparently 'reached' the point where he has a few who have decided to 'push back'. In just 3 months! Quite an achievement. 2 1 1 1
jvi Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 lack of nuance has got me before and may again, and yeah I getpissed and push back, perhaps its the right time for a return to civility 1

zigzag Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 Feels like I'm watching the slow demise of the Gibson Lounge. Seems moderators have just decided to watch it burn hoping it will burn itself out. They should have been totally intolerant of political posts from the very beginning. There might be a few more regulars still here if they had. The fact is, I don't agree with many who post here, and I find that I like the people here a lot more when I don't have to read about their politics... even implied. I know I'm as guilty as anyone, and for that I apologize, but I never initiate anything, and like so many others, I'll probably leave if it's allowed to go on. 2
Pinch Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 Everything's hyper-political right now. I think it's inevitable that there will be some spillover into the Lounge. Let's just remember to be civil to each other. 3

Mr. Gibson Posted July 5, 2020 Posted July 5, 2020 (edited) Damn Mr. Gibson is the worst sh1t starting prikk on this forum. The sentence is death to be carried out immediately. You forgot the 1st Stimulus Money thread that got taken down. I gotta make sure I'm the #1 prikk on your list. Edited July 6, 2020 by Mr. Gibson 1 1 2
zigzag Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 (edited) To be clear, ghost, I'm not calling anybody out. In fact, I really have no negative feelings toward you or anyone else. But I have noticed a lot of "political" posts lately, and they do not interest me at all. I've been on this forum for over ten of the twelve or so years of this forum's existence, and I've seen the best and worst of this forum over those years. What I'm seeing lately is like looking at a fish on land taking its last gasp. You may not be a reason for the forum's demise. You just seem to be a major contributor during the process. I'm not blaming you for that. This place has bottomed out for many, many months... a fairly large group with very little interesting to say. Edited July 6, 2020 by zigzag 1
zigzag Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 You don't get it, dood. I think I'm just gonna ignore the entire forum. 1
Retired Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 What was the subject? Oh, Happy 4th of July. Well, since they shot off fireworks in our neighborhood from blocks around till after 1:00, am, I for one am glad it's over. 2

Pinch Posted July 6, 2020 Posted July 6, 2020 I'll just defuse the tension by wishing you all a happy 6th of July. 1
