    What's the best way to deal with people that think it's their job to Police what what you post here? I've been led to believe that's why there are Moderators, maybe I'm wrong. I've always enjoyed the interaction with most everyone here and want to continue to do so................ Any ideas?

    FHC mods take a hands off approach as much, as possible anyways. So we kinda keep each other in line for the most part...has worked pretty well, other than a few minor scuffles along the way.
    If you are having problems with someone you can always report it to Moderating for a look see...

    To ignore on this forum, click the members name and there will be an option to ignore that member. You can go back and change it anytime if needed. It's a really handy tool, no use getting guff from a stranger somewhere.

    I can only think of a couple instances on this board where people were kinda getting into it. On the "other" forum I frequent, it's a daily occurrence where pretty much any question or concern gets turned into a big argument or P*ssing match.

    Yup, a little more laid back 'round these parts. :smoke:

    Thanks! Backwoods Savage, not an ongoing thing, very much an isolated incident..........It kinda rocks me back when I see it here, 99.99% of folks here are really well behaved...... Life is good!

    Bert Yes they are! Note as Well Seasoned stated. I also want to state that, don't think things go un-noticed. Usually after a few talk's it's over with and resolved, but if it drags on and on, :picard: then we'll get involved if needed. :yes:

    Too bad to hear that. This is the most polite, decent forum I participate in-makes the others look bad.

    Ok, well first let me state that I believe this is due to me being a wise a$$ in Reloader s retirement thread last evening.

    What was meant to be a joke was not taken as such.
    :headbang:

    My sense of humor is about as refined as a tanker full of crude oil, but other than that I'm about as bland as a bowl of rice pudding.

    So while I can and will apologize for my unrefined sense of humor, I cannot guarantee that this won't happen again.

    Actually it seems likely
    :hair:

    My apologies to Bert and Marshel54
    :handshake:

    I read a lot of your posts and you’re a great guy! I get close to the edge sometimes myself so I know how you feel.

    Thx Jack Straw , appreciate that.
    :handshake:

    I'm not "down on myself", just understand that I'm "not for everyone".

    Kinda like liver, ya like it or ya don't.
