I'm with Daryl....honest criticism of a gun not accurately described; no problem. But HoJo goes way over the line and makes it personal and abusive. There's just no excuse for that. He needs a loooong time-out from this site.

I don't have a dog in this fight and don't know either party. I would only observe, that in the past when there is any heated debate on forums on this site, there is always a gaggle of regular naysayers. Quick to criticize or take a side, fanning the flames but with nothing constructive to say. One thing is for sure, the two protagonists will not be left to their own devices.

If we are Frying folks.. I find Ed Good &/or Bilious Bob far more disruptive to this forum than old jOe. I think Ed/Bob, with his Uncle Remus imitations & gun scorching-lore makes him sound thick, jOe sound like David Attenborough in comparison. But perhaps that is best left for a new Topic. There's always a few guys who rub you wrong in life,& I certainly haven't meant to offend any of you here either... Best to all franc

I've never been tempted to post on a For Sale thread to criticize the price of a gun offered for sale. I always thought that a gun offered for a ridiculous price would just sit for years, as they do on the gun sites. JOe just gets to the root of the situation quicker. I wish he wouldn't do that. Usually such a gun attracts offers at somewhat lesser prices and gets sold, probably at a fair price. That's the way gun selling works. JOe just isn't good at waiting patiently for it to happen.

Franc Otte has a short memory if he thinks Bilbous Bob and Ed Good are the worst we have seen here. There is another maniac out there who has been banned from more than one forum, but is back here on better behavior. I just hope those who have behaved badly in the past think better hehavior is the way to go.

Gentlemen, I was taught along time ago, that if you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all. That being said, opinions are like assholes, everybody has one and most, if not all stink. Please act your respective ages. Also, Dad always said never to argue with an idiot in public for a stranger cannot tell the difference. Goodnight gentlemen.

Jim...that is spot on....but it is far more problematic....it is called Internet Forum Addiction. Check that out on google...there is life beyond spending 5 to 10 hours a day on forums.

While I'm pretty certain we would not see eye to eye on most things I have never had an issue with Homeless Joe. He dwells in society where many do not like to be told the truth and do not realize that Southerners like their men deeply religious and a little mad.
