Hey Ron, I just reread your post, are you planning to start ANOTHER G838 forum? I certianly hope this is not a payback type of thing.

Ron those are impressive numbers but I won't be one of the people that stand up and commend you or your moderators for the calamity that occured on the 503. The hand came down very heavy of the M151 forum, and by my way of seeing it, for no apparent reason. When a loadspeaker would have been sufficient (to cool the crowds) the choice was made for bullets. I am one of those people that never even recognized that there was a problem in the first place :oops: So... the heavy handed response was like a T-34 rumbling down my street and parking in MY front lawn. I didn't start the problem, I didn't want the problem, so I did the smart thing and just left the scene.

:x I will say it again... not sure why it has not sunk in...
All I asked was for the tech information to be kept technical, FS section to be kept just that etc... and if you want to BS use the correct forum... you turned the tech forum into a M151 BS board... this is not what is was ment to be used for...

Moose Lodge, it has a warm and fuzzy feeling eh :lol:

Have a good evening
Thanks,
Ron

Matt,
I understand, you did the best thing, no reason to start a war over this, step away like you did...

Over the years G503 have had many problems... they are dealt with to the best of our abilities... and someones toes are going to get stepped on...

I can't make everyone happy... sorry...

Moose Lodge has a nice ring to it. When are you going to post a picture of your M151 :?:

ALRIGHT GUY'S, ENOUGH IS ENOUGH! YES I AM TYPING IN CAPS FOR A REASON. MATT, YOU DO NOT INSULT A MANS FAMILY. I do not care how much you dislike him or what he has done. And Ron, you are responding in the same manner! Adding smileys does not disguise what is being said. Grow up people. Jim this is where the moderator is needed, I will not sit around and watch personal barbs being thrown back and forth. Ron, I asked if you intended to start another G838 page and you did not answer. We got out of you hair and now you want us back? I am ready to just sell the freakin Mutt and get a duece, Less hassle all the way around.
