Good points. An alternative ending might be you trying to post things in a meaningful manner rather than trying to stir the pot. The age old "be a part of the solution or a part of the problem" dilemma.

The facility that the forum software provides to issue negative Reputation Points to members has been DISABLED. This feature was never intended to be used as a popularity contest or -- worse yet -- as a means of issuing tit for tat dings against a person for the sake of juvenile inability to get along. It was intended to be a way to reward people for posting good information and to give the members a way to "police themselves" by showing each other who the bad apples in the bushel were. Because some members just cannot seem to get away from grade-school bickering with each other and have insisted on abusing the ability to register negative reputation points, I have re-configured the feature so that only positive points can be issued. Honestly I am extremely disappointed. It's a sad day when a group of grown adults can't act their ages and as a result the entire community loses out on something that should have been a useful tool. You know who you are and you should be ashamed.

The laws for traveling there are the same as if you were transporting your firearm to the range without a permit. Once you get there, it's the same as having it in your own home.

My thoughts as well.

Actually the form is accessible now. The fact that it wasn't before was unintentional, and I figure someone else might need it at some point. Go figure. Still giving things away even when people bitch about one of two elements that keeps the doors open so that they have a place to bitch to begin with.

Dude, stop being a cheap ass and support the site. It's really THAT easy. If you won't do that, then stop bitching about the way the Trading Post is set up or hit the bricks.

These threads are beyond pointless. No one is going to convince anyone else that their candidate is any more/less superior to the other. All they've managed to do so far is point out who the pot-stirrers are and make the rest of the members sick of them. Ask yourself... do I really want to be that guy?

I'd recommend taking up Randy Harris (Cruel Hand Luke) on his offer to go take a class from him. You never hear bad comments about his training but always hear positive remarks. Money well spent. Beyond that, there is a lot you can do on your own to improve your shooting accuracy. I am going to go out on a limb here and say that based on my own 20+ years experience shooting firearms, accuracy is 10% physical ability, 10% technique and 80% mental. All of these areas improve with time and use. You cannot expect to go out to a range and be Deadeye Dick with your first 10 rounds. The hardest area for most people to improve in is the mental aspect, but that's why improvement comes with use and exposure. Once someone has shown you the proper techniques -- or you learn them yourself -- your physical abilities will improve quickly as you learn to use new muscles in new ways, and your confidence will begin to improve dramatically as you start seeing improvements.

Words of wisdom.

Those are social groups, not forums. Tapatalk has no idea how to process them.

Correct. Per the Rules and Terms... "Benefactors may post ads for sale or trade of items that they themselves own. Members may not make posts "selling this item for a buddy" or otherwise engage in 3rd party transactions."

2M for local. 40M for regional / national I'd imagine.

My pleasure guys. I love that you all enjoy the site as much as you do. This place is near and dear to my heart and hopefully soon things will slow down enough for me that I can get active in the posts and not just behind the scenes. I miss that.

Mmmm... industrial size jug of red thread locker. Nice!

Thanks for the kudos. Greatly appreciated. I agree with this 100%. What we do here is pretty easy. What the members do to keep it fun and interesting is WAY more important!

Guess CFA wasn't hiring when he was looking.

Still carrying my Zero Tolerance 0350ST and loving it. I blame Willis for the dent it made in my wallet.

TMF, you and are are completely on the same page. Glad I'm not complete alone out in left field.

You've gotta wonder how sad a person's life has to be to come to a forum like TGO for the sole sake of trolling it. Small penis?

By a nice turn of events, I was able to work from home today and had some time to actually spend on TGO instead of putting out fires for other people. I miss being able to do this.

We smelled a troll.

Allow me to take out the trash...

Nicely done.

If you vote the lesser of two evils, you're still voting for an evil.
