Trolls need to go yes, rude people too - but you don't necessarily want to shun people just because they have little or no real life experience. All of us older people have specialized experience that
a lot of other people don't have. I don't feel like that makes me any better than anyone else.



I'm all about fart jokes.
Operative phrase being shytbirds but yeah, I hear ya J. You're good people and I respect your words.

Just in a mood today I guess felt like ribbing people a bit but I’m done now. Still proud of the forum for most part, I do honestly think most guys are pretty good here and we all get on nerves including myself. Just can’t let it get to out of hand or show it’s really getting to you or then it’s over people smell weakness even in good fun. Always told guys that worked for me in the ironworkers if someone gives you a hard time your good only need to worry if your ignored.
This is truth Chris. If I ain't *f-wording with you I don't like you.

A lot of you followed Mastermind to this new site, trashing AS as you went. Now look what you’ve become!

I used to constantly talk about respect. How that had to be the most important thing.

Over the last few years I've realized that Americans only care about themselves. They have no respect for each other.

The condition is irreparable.

@Red97 is dyno development at a point, or is it likely to be, where all the chain, wood, operator and any other arguable points can be effectively nullified?

I don't plan on cutting sticks anymore...

Once I get back I plan to upgrade the software, get all the bells/whistles

Everything will be a before/after run. Calibration is all set, and I can repeat it. So numbers are what they are.



2014 is when I started saw forums.

The more things change, the more they stay the same...

I still know many great people that respect others as they do themselves.
I’m raising a whole flock of them myself.
Chin up, cupcake.
I’ll still come visit you even if you don’t do GTGs anymore.

Can I borrow 5 hammers?

Respect is only one of a number of things that has been lacking in recent years. We need more: emotional resilience; emotional composure; dignity; integrity; and compassion.

When I look at how my parents and my grandparents conducted themselves, they didn't make snap decisions and they didn't make any judgements based on gossip, media bias,
or irreverent small talk. They researched issues for themselves and made sound decisions based on what they learned for themselves.

They knew tomorrow was going to be a new day and they knew that the ups and downs occurring from day-to-day and week-to-week weren't gonna last.

Social media is playing a hand in destroying those principles, and we're allowing it to happen.

A little banter and ribbing is good for the site, keeps things interesting, we are all different and bring different perspectives to the site, just realize your opinion isn't always gonna be liked or popular, this site is a good distraction for me somedays and I do enjoy that, even Dall and his colorful vocabulary.

This is truth Chris. If I ain't *frenching with you I don't like you.
Hence what I said in the end of my paragraph, only need to be worried about being liked if everyone ignores you. When I worked construction you needed thick skin because if you didn’t you didn’t make it long. Take dall for instance the ass in him is a natural reaction to working construction. He’s been a boiler head way to long or was that plumber.
