TexasCHLForum being trashed in another forum

[JJVP]

Remember what your mom taught you about sticks and stones, and words?

It applies here.

Even if you go in there and ask, politely for a specific example.. it will turn in to a flame war.

"they" will say something ridiculous was said here, that Chas himself said it, and all the regular members agreed.. a link will be asked for to the offending statements...
Non will provided and the other forum members will chime in and say see.... they knew they were caught and deleted it..

Trust me, it is a no win situation... let it drop.

I moderate on the largest motorcycling forum out there, have since 2003, and two others as well.... Stuff said on one forum about another or the other members is not new.. No minds and viewpoints are ever changed by anything posted.
However more than one formally in good standing member has been asked (told) to leave due to the nonsense and heated, threatening exchanges these things devolve into.

If they post and cite a specific person and associated statement, then sure it's worth it to respond politely if ya want, just for it to go publicly next to the nonsense statement.. but arguing the point is a waste of time.

my $.02

Didn't respond, nor was planning to.

Thank you...
I trust you did not take that as lecturing you As that was not my intent... I apologize if it came across that way

As other have noted, The troll was not fed on that other board... So it is a non issue in any case.

It's nice to be part of this forum here, where sanity and maturity is the standard and the petty stuff only rears it's head occasionally.

Did not take as a lecture at all. No need to apologize. I agreed with everything you said. That's why I put the Just wanted to indicate my position that I had not, nor planned to feed the troll.

There is another gun forum?

Yes, there is another, It's rules are simple, and the mods and administrator enforce them strictly. There are no flame wars, no personal attacks, no profanity and a base of knowledge that would fill the Library of Congress. It may not be the place for you there's a lot of both active and retired LEO, and a lot of Veterans. Most have been there, done that and are alive to talk about it. It's owned by Evan Marshall the co-author of the Stopping Power books check it out!

Ahh, so a marketing tool cleverly disguised as a forum, Thats a unique approach

Thanks, but I prefer my SPAM with eggs and potatoes.

If it appeals to some, thats great.. To each his own.

Two bits of advice that I received from my uncle in the heart of Cajun country when I was a boy:

1. If you're gonna rassle in the mud with a hog, you're automatically at a disadvantage because the hog LIKES rasslin in the mud.

2. When you walk up on 2 fellas fighting on the street corner, which one is the idiot?

Excellent.

And in keeping with the topic....those two bits of wisdom just made it into my classes!

I'll PC this up so I won't be edited: Getting into a cussing match on the Internet is like being in the Special Olympics . . . you might win, but you are still mentally challenged.

One other. It has a "for Sale" area but I dont think there are any other catagories. Are there.

I haven't really looked at many other forums, just a few. I am not a registered member on any other gun forum. It goes without saying, this forum, in my opinion, is above and beyond the rest. There are some of the most intelligent and educated people here. And you, as well as I, know the difference.

KaiserB was banned from TexasCHLforum back in March. Me thinks I smell a motive.

Chas.
