Proposed update to front porch forum rules

[sree251]

Nope. I'll tell you why. It takes away from the overall happiness of the place. Two people taking over a thread (and I've been guilty of it, too) arguing back and forth, and not just arguing, but flinging the insults... if they were sitting next to you at a restaurant, you'd either tell them to shut up, or you'd get up and leave. You wouldn't just sit there and listen to it.

Ok, then leave but don't call the police. Others in the restaurant may find the back and forth entertaining.

They are. Not so with people who are banned then re-register with a different userid. Ah, IP addresses, gotta love 'em. They reveal so much.

Ouch!
You're not a poker player, are you?

I strongly suggest you take this to Muhammad, VS hashing this out in the public forums.

You are not a bully, Moss. As long as you can't reach out of my computer screen and physically punch me in the face, you are fine.

Your problem is you dont understand the difference between a tractor website and twitter.

What is a tractor website? Get Marketing at Mahindra or John Deere Inc. to run this forum and I guarantee you TRACTORBYNET will lose all traffic within a week without moderation

Time to go out and grease the tractor...

Will tune in later to see what has transpired in my absence...

Plus I promised tractor picture for sensor hookup to another member...

One thing I have noticed is that you instigate trouble and poke others needlessly...even when they are not addressing you.

Yep.
He almost sounds like someone else that belongs here and behaves in a very similar way.
Having 2 memberships and names on a website to “double your strength” is pretty easy.

I have nothing to fear, is what you meant. But I am a coward and was called out in the Gun thread. I can't even force myself to shoot a squirrel let alone a home invader even in self-defense. As such, I am deemed unfit for rural living.

I grew up with guns, toured Vietnam as a Grunt, Desert Storm, OIF I, III, IV, Afghanistan. Have fired thousands of rounds thru various guns.

I would never call someone a coward that can't do any of that, or who refuses to shoot a squirrel. My wife is similar. She used to work at a Pharmacy. Faced wigged out prescription drug addicts almost daily. One time her and I were talking. She said I am thinking about getting a conceal carry permit. I said can you aim a pistol at someone's face and pull the trigger until it clicks? She said I can not. I said then don't carry. Someone will take it away from you and use it against you.

I don't consider you unfit for rural living. I have a neighbor that is as you.

I won't condemn you for your choices. I might question your motives getting into conversations where this information would be discussed though. Especially when you know the person on the other end of the conversation will hold that against you.

You still in your parked car chatting with us? Man, your wife must be buying everything in the store.

No that ended hours ago. I‘m home resting from a week of picking up logs from trees we cut down and shoveling 3/4” stone. My back is sorer than heck.
You aint doing to bad on the post count, either.
