I joined AS around 6 months ago....have yet to make a single post....my mailbox was full "requests" to support $$$. After reading about all the bans and other shenanigas I doubt I'll post or become a supporting member there.....and not just because I'm a cheap bastard...which I am.

And you keep going back.
That is true. So is this.

The only guy paid to port a saw was on this site...........a monkey in TN .........not a grrilla in VA ...old AS guys will get it

The only guy I ever bought (8) new Husky 395's from in less than a year owns this site ... probably 8 more soon if they stop putting me in the call "que"

I love this site also but I am a vintage saw guy with now over 700 saws so I keep my contacts open. If you look I have several modern saws in the for sale section that are not of interest to folks for whatever reason. There are barns full more but why clutter up the site. I have ZERO to add to any conversation on port timing and squish.....never any issue on a Homelite 990...Just ask Dean Hylton... Once again ole AS guy.

I love saws, farming, fine mature women, and more importantly shooting the breeze about anything and it just seems that has been lost in all the BS of smartphones and arguing on the web. It did not used to be that way. When John Lambert (Gypo Logger) asked me to join AS ,amy of us BS'ed and had a great time.

It is too bad as I still love to BS about saws, fine mature women, farming, tools, and most anything else but folks just want to bethch on a smartphone via a post and not call up and shoot the breeze.

Any of ya all get bored some evening after 7PM CT give me a jingle if you love saws or hate liberals.....ah *s-word there I went .....headed to banned camp.

I wish all a great weekend

That was then but times changed .
I agree times change but being able to converse sensibly doesn't. It is still needed to have a functioning society.

We have a "no cell phone" policy at work. I got chastised one day by the plant manager when he walked by and I was looking at mine.....( I was probably either checking here, the Swede site or AS).... Well I think it is odd that we have the policy but the mid-management will text or call employees from 250ft away to tell them something. Up until Friday I had not given them my number. I figure if you need me, you come speak to me, face to face.

The same principle applies online but in a different version. I spent most of my life working in education as a high school Industrial Arts instructor. I had principals that were good and bad just like we all have bosses that are good and bad. One I could not stand based on his management had followed one policy that was great. Many folks used to do it. The one and done. I will exchange an email with you on an issue but after that if it is not resolved I am done and it either goes face to face or on the phone. Of course that policy does not fit all situations but the principle behind it does. If you have an issue with me just come right out and say it. No need to send a slug of secret PM's to rally your troops. Stand upm, be a man and deal with it
