TGO David

Frankly I'm more than a little appalled at the lack of integrity being displayed by those who suggest a person should just try to sneak reloads in and use them anyway. So much for gun owners being "salt of the earth" types, right? On second thought, maybe appalled isn't the right emotion. Pissed off is. These guys have stepped up and supported this site at the highest level we make available to our vendors. Awesome way to welcome them to the community and thank them for supporting TGO. It kind of defeats my idea of seeing if they'd like to host some organized events on their range and I hadn't even had a chance to approach them with that yet! Again, thanks guys. Maybe THINK before posting in the future.

This is going to come off wrong I'm sure but that's a pretty dumbass statement in light of the facts as stated AND the fact that that this range is a premier sponsor of this forum and didn't choose to "boycott us". Thanks for that.

Hmmm, apparently I've still got some old info lingering around out there. I'm not on a computer right now so I'll get back to you later this evening with current details. The whole pricing structure has changed a bit since last time and we now have some cheaper options that might appeal to you. For vendor related details, always PM me. The signature line doesn't really apply to that. Tnx.

Let me elaborate: This impacted ANYONE who was hosted with or had DNS records hosted with GoDaddy. It impacted millions of sites.

TGO presently uses Godaddy for DNS hosting only. This is why some folks could access the site today but others could not. Some ISPs still had our records cached and therefore their customers could access the site. This is the first time since we've used them for DNS that this has happened. So long as it doesn't become a recurring issue with them I doubt I will make any brash changes. Godaddy is usually very solid.

Or... people could think ahead and empty their pockets and luggage of things they know will be confiscated before going to the airport. It still dumbfounds me that people get in trouble for trying to carry knives and even firearms through the screening areas because they didn't ####ing think about what they were carrying. These regulations aren't new.

Guys, you can actually go out and sell a boat-load of guns, ammo, etc. without having a license to do so and someone will buy it all from you and others will argue your "right" to do so on a forum ad nauseum. What matters at the end of the day is that when the BATFE comes knocking on your door, their interpretation of the law is what is going to prevail at that moment and it may end up costing you quite a bit of money (and potentially freedom) to assert your counterpoint in court. Certain aspects of firearms ownership are pretty black and white. Others have varying shades of gray. Those gray areas are the problematic ones and wherein monsters lurk. I'd greatly prefer that folks not sell their reloaded ammo on TGO if for no other reason than the simple fact that by disallowing it we're protecting people from themselves and from badly loaded rounds.

I think it's safe to say that there are some members on TGO who have bought and sold enough firearms in a short enough period of time that it's certainly raised the eyebrows of the BATFE. One case in particular comes to mind from several years ago where some guys were flipping guns quick enough that they were investigated for potentially making straw purchases. Trust me. They do watch.

And on a somewhat related note... The Walking Dead returns to TV on October 14th. Woohoo!

A good point in this thread to remind folks of TGO's policies... Further, the Owner and Administration of this site take a zero tolerance policy regarding companies that attempt to engage in act of soliciting undercover. We consider soliciting undercover to be the act of manufacturers, vendors, dealers or firearms related businesses who register on the forum with the purpose of promoting and soliciting the products that they make and/or the services that they offer while pretending to be an average consumer. These acts will not be tolerated regardless if you are a Sponsor or not and all suspicious threads and/or posts will be deleted accordingly and the offending business will be blacklisted indefinitely. If you are interested in becoming a Sponsor and promoting your business on TNGunOwners.com, see the related FAQ Entry and contact us. It is very important that you contact us and become a Sponsor before posting any sort of advertising material. And... Guests understand that is the policy of TNGunOwners.com to NOT allow manufacturers, vendors, dealers, shops, firearms related businesses, competing websites or for-profit publications to participate in any way shape or form on TNGunOwners.com unless they are a sponsor. Guests also understand that TNGunOwners.com considers soliciting to include the contacting of members though private messages and/or though email as well as a user name, signature and/or user profile that contains a business name, phone number, email address, website URL or direct link back to it. Non-profit organizations are required to obtain permission from the administrators prior to participating on TNGunOwners.com. While a friend of the shop has inquired about them becoming a Vendor here, that does not constitute any sort of "clearance" for them to indulge in any sort of advertising. This thread is carefully teetering on the edge of things we would have already locked down in years past. Let's avoid the unpleasant business of requiring that the Staff members protect the investment of our many paid sponsors. That being said, I think this thread has eked enough free publicity for the shop. Closing it down for obvious reasons. Thanks, and hopefully we'll be able to add them on as a Vendor soon.

Not sure the second pass was any better than the first pass.

lol... it's not a bill, per se, but thank you for your continued support. It's appreciated.

Any of you who think he's doing this #### for the pro-gun crowd are completely missing the point. It's not about you, or us, or the 2nd Amendment. It's about money. It's about him trolling for a lawsuit so that he can make bank and stop working as a nurse. Whichever law enforcement officer or HCP holder finally smokes this clown is going to end up on the receiving end of a tremendous lawsuit either filed by him or his surviving family ... which is almost certainly the end-game he's hoping for.

I agree. Use Google for your health & wellness forum needs.

PM me.

I've been out of the area for the past week on business. I assume I have a PM waiting for me?

How does him being an ###hole (in your opinion) nullify the fact that the guy won SEVEN Tours de France? You don't have to like him, but the victories are irrefutable fact.

As always, it's worth remembering that TGO is not a democracy and a majority vote isn't required when we decide to move on something that we feel is in the best interest of the site and it's membership overall. Mac posted more than I would have but don't let that mislead you into thinking that he was trying to justify it to you. It was simply an explanation of why the decision was made. Closing the thread.

It sound like it might be a problem with the AJAX used for the add-on that processes orders. I'm going to escalate this to IPB support and see what the software vendor says with us.

Get to posting then! You've been here since early 2011!

Precisely.

Why all of the edited posts in this thread?

It's legal for collection purposes.

Welcome to the family.
