Actually I was quite surprised to see an escalated level of attack, someone apparently was offended by something I said, I got a PM and they changed some of my posts in responses and started suggesting we meet locally...if I had the guts.

I responded sure...no problem, and pointed out that I'm licensed to carry concealed as well as competing in an array of PPC and combat events, so perhaps I'm not the wimpy liberal they envisioned.

A bit surprising huh?

Egadssss, I despise people who will change your post or put a different spin on it than you intended!!! To me its the lowest form of deciept in here and it does go on!!!

Call them out on it everytime or it will continue!!!

As for the rest, why must challenges such as you expierenced have to take place at all?? Nothing gleened from it other than perhaps laughing at such passion? I would have to call them out with those who fit the “keyboard commando “ and leave it right there...

Thanks for your comments, L-J

It was good getting back to ones take on the original thread post topic.

You seldom disappoint.

Your post reminded me of some words I posted in a earlier thread from a while back...

"There are really fine people from both camps on the OPP, and I am privileged to know quite a few of them. The so-called 'trolls', IMHO, also come from either side of the ideological spectrum. Bad manners and vulgar language, along with a need to agitate or discourage honest discourse, are what constitute a troll to me. Having been called a troll, myself, I never have quite understood what its' meaning was for others. I would like to think that my friends would remain my friends if I got to know them apart from the OPP, and my enemies might become my friends if we had a better chance to get acquainted."

Your Welcome, slatt.,,🌹❤️

I can not believe you of all people was called a troll. While there are some in here that do fit that criteria you are certainly not one of them!.

I’m with you on the friendship aspect of those we feel friendship with In here and would also hope that friendship would continue meeting the people.

I still can’t believe you’ve been called a troll it doesn’t fit and believe me you are anything but. I mean this most sincerely, my friend....

Without naming names, it is safe to say that...for wh**ever reason(s), most who had called me 'troll' are no longer on the forum. Trust me, it is not because I reported them. I do not file complaints against anyone, nor do I have an 'ignore' list. By not responding to those whom I deem unworthy of response, I ignore in the old-fashioned way. I pay them no heed.

Yeah, the old fashioned way is the only way that works here, the ignore list doesn't seem to function unless it is only for PM's.

No complaints filed here either and no ignore list I just ignore them period...
