Is it gone now. I know Brian locked it after about 4 of his prime members complained about him posting it in the 1st place. Those members don't appear to be posting any longer.

I also saw a post by Brian saying some on other forums were trying to destroy OGF. Looks to me like is is doing a good job of that by himself :wink:

Thread is gone. Brian definitely has entered the cranky old man "get off my lawn" phase of life. Rather sad and totally unnecessary. Live and let live doesn't appear to be in his repertoire. There are things in life not worth fighting about, and he seems to have no clue.

Wait!
Isn't this the guy who claimed they NEVER censor anybody? Nor kick folks off?

Lemme see.....deleting a thread is NOT censoring, right?


Four members do not appear to be posting...oh, dear...that's over 50% of their active members, right?
(for those in Rio Lindo, that's a joke, folks)

But here we are, in an un-censored forum, tearing them down.

Like y'all said, he's doing a brilliant job all by hisself.

It is amazing how things tend to blow over here. Every so often a few loud barks with no bite.

While I’d agree, I don’t think we have a moderator

Can you imagine one of Arnold’s “Can’t find your post?” admonishments here? That would be a true test of whether vapor-lock is a real thing :lol:

We have a few thugs and would be bullies but no moderator. There is no free lunch. All civilizing forces, whether reasonable or not, will greatly inconvenience the barbaric individuals amongst us. :mrgreen: Almost as bad as a lack of civilizing influences is when those in charge are the barbarians.

It is a distinct possibility.

Now that Neil has turned his postings and thread to political BS. this should have been in the Club Car Lounge as Healey36 had stated
