I’ve only met two guys on here that refuse to accept they are not perfect and will keep things going no matter what. One has had me blocked for over a year so I finally blocked him from sending me nasty PMs all the time that I can’t respond to. Other than a couple of “guys”. Everyone else here is great. 10s of thousands of members and only two, maybe 3, jerks is a pretty good percentage of great people. 👍

Me too Plum. I don’t let anyone anger me. Very few have that kind of power👍.

Concur. I’ve been “slapped “ by admin twice on two different posts and locked out of the conversation.
Not good.

" Everyone sees who the jerks are "

Exactly, got one clown / jerk baiting me into a confrontation on 3 separate threads presently and i wont bite. Got his little one word spew going or a third party reference and i just use the Oz saying. " he who angers you, controls you "

No anger here, plenty of laughs at the dim wit.

I can't respond to my on post. Because I was rude. But what I don't understand is why me. The man that provoked me should be banned. I am not the only one he has tried to start something with. I was in the wrong I do admit that. But people like that should not be able to be on something that makes everyone else happy.

Its like in football,its almost always the second guy that gets penalized

Very true. The first guy only starts the problem but the second guy is “escalating” and that’s a violation. I’ve never been real good at keeping my mouth shut when someone attacks me or I know they’re lying but I’m working on it. Everyone knows who the jerks are. I don’t need to add my two cents worth but, somehow it makes me feel better but I’m still trying to be a little more diplomatic about my responses in most cases🤷‍♂️😉.

¿Didn't SOME "famous person" once say: "Discretion is the greater part of valor."...?

Could have I’m not sure. But I DO know that the intelligent tongue is motionless in most cases. I’m working on keeping mine still more. 🤷‍♂️👍

That's a good one, too... It was my 1st or 2nd grade teacher, that told us children something that STILL "passes through my mind", at least once a day = "Always be sure to engage the mind, before putting the mouth in gear!"

Oh yeah. I remember that one from my childhood too. That’s a good one as well and makes a lot of sense if one practices it👍.

I hope you stick around here. It is very sad some like to create problems that are never needed in a great community. Keep your head up. March on and try to avoid people like that. Ignore is an option. It is simple to activate. Click on the Culprit and push ignore. It will not allow them to hassle you with posts or PMs. You will see things they post but it can help. It sends a message to the problem. Best to try your heart out to avoid them.

Nothing changes my friend,,you me and, I believe 1or 2 others are constantly targeted,other people get to say jerks, and clowns without really letting the people know who you are really talking about, I've asked admin but I guess we're supposed to work it out ourselves, CH I understand, but PB talking in the attic poop doesn't suit him Hot Dam I miss Bad Bobby,, so here we go ,,
