Buroughing Corn?

Reading lots of posts doesn't mean making lots of posts. You can see how many I've made. This is the last time I'm going to ask that this no longer be an issue.
 
Just a bit of advice Waltz...
Maybe if you don't want it to be an issue any longer you could ...I don't know... apologize? Read the FAQ and site rules so that you know/understand when/how you can edit posts and such?

The people here who do pay memberships to keep this site running for everyone I am sure do not take kindly to it being called archaic and backwards. We love this site and stand up for it and the people on it. You can't make a comment like you did and expect people to just let it go without owning up to your portion of the problem with the original post you made....

I actually already said I didn't mean it negatively. I just had no idea. And I don't think I should be reemed out for making a mistake like that after I've explained myself. But between being confused with wade's posts and Robbie now apparently calling me stupid ('lead a horse to college but you can't make him think"), I don't know. I feel ganged up on and unwelcome. I want to be a part of this site and help people out but I just don't know.

Waltz, you'll be fine. Ease yourself into the saddle.
There is plenty of wit and sarcasm you'll have to learn to swim in to survive here. (Extremely sorry for mixing metaphors.)
And, like I said, you'll be fine. Just don't sting our forum before getting to know it.
Newcomers have to watch, look, listen, and think....to see who is who, especially on a forum like this with such highly diverse members.
I did....and I still put my foot in my mouth, made an ess out of myself, and got chastised plenty of times.
And still do all those things from time to time.
Thank goodness most members have gotten to know me well enough....to know the "bigger picture" of me.
Stick around, you'll be fine.
 
Waltz, I agree with Eric, stick around. It’s a good place with good people. But be prepared to roll with the punches. People won’t agree with everything you say or for that matter won’t understand everything you say. So let it roll of your back and more on.

Case in point, when he first started posting I thought Eric was a nice guy, it took a while to get to know him and realize he was a jerk. Live and learn. Bite me Eric.

I already explained what I said. And I never said anything in criticism of paid membership or the owner. I didn't know that a basic forum function was restricted to paid members. I assumed the system was just that simple that it wasn't possible. 'Archaic' and 'backwards' weren't meant as negatively as you're taking them. It would be best if this stopped being an issue. I've been here long enough to see some arguments on this forum and I'd rather avoid that sort of thing.

It'll be okay...(Hint- stop saying you wish it would stop being an issue, don't demand to have the thread locked or deleted, etc. People are going to start posting pandas, then, and all will be lost).
 
Did somebody say... Pandas? :D

I didn't demand anything. I just didn't want people to draw it out when there's no point. :( Just worried about it blowing up big time and being banned.

I know you didn't. Just don't. People go crazy.

On THIS site!!!!

Naaah, We're cool folks here.

Well some, I mean a few I thought.
Well maybe not those few but maybe one.
Well even then, that one isn't that cool.
Oh well good luck and post picture of your snake or a panda. That makes members smile. Not all, but a few smiles.
