He hasn't called you fella yet, so all is good ATM... LOL
LOL!!!!! man this is very true, i havent been around that long and i know this...:noevil:
Well, if you want to be a smart ass about this fella, you'll soon find out that we can get along just fine here without you.

And in case you are as confused as you appear, the US Constitution was written to restrict the powers of the US FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, not the private individuals that live in this country. I am not under any obligation whatsoever to grant you nor anyone else any rights whatsoever in relation to this website.
o well lavender it was fun having u visit this great site :wavey:, but Rich just said fella and thats not a good sign....:uzi:

As I was saying.......

This is a bad sign.....
Been here a while now and I can safely say that this will end badly....
Well perhaps not badly, but one way...
And this is from someone who likes a good argument....
Obviously i am off to get my pop corn now... And a good seat to watch from...
i think i will do the same, do u want a soda? and may i add that this mayb a open site to the public, but it has its rules for a reason and they are there to b followed. but its a fun place full of info and great ppl with yrs of experience, i would recoment u cool ur self down and give the place a chance. If not then :wavey:!!!
 
Beth- sometimes I have been very afraid for you!!

You know you can knock me over the head with your mod hammer and I will still love you in the morning!! :)

And I really do love this place. You CAN express yourself here....
 
Josh and Mike, I know this happens sometimes, but I'd like to salvage the situation if we can here. Can we please not egg things on? Can we all just take a deep breath, step back, look at the pretty Tessera Stripes and start over? I think that is the best option, here.

I am in no way confused about the constitution or private property. And I don't why I thought ignorance of the site would recieve any kind of mercy. My bad. I am constantly reminded that even a group of saved sinners in church can't always get along. Why would any less depravity be on the net. 5And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. gen 6:5

So, are you REALLY bound and determined to get banned from this site?
 
I'm not purposely trying to get banned. You come at me pretty offensive implying me to ignorant and confused. When I defend myself, I get threats of being banned. I guess what I need to know is, is the requirement for staying on here consist of being talked to like a child when I miss post something. And or bowing to you regaurdless of tone or character?

IMHO, and from personal experience- yes, people tend to NOT receive the benefit of the doubt and are kind of "guilty until proven otherwise".... which I have yet to see happen.

I see no reason not to accept that fact that a person slipped and possibly didn't notice something even if it's supposedly obvious.
No one is about to get rich from posting an ad here, and I saw very few who log on for the sole purpose of improving their economical status.

This is a private site, the owner can regulate it as he sees fit and demand that no ads are placed/only people who contribute may do so.
On the reverse, not every person who posts needs to be addressed in an aggressive manner.

No one is without guilt of making mistakes. It is not a capital crime to not notice a forum rule.

A simple "please note that you have breached our TOA by posting an ad without being a contributing member. Please go over the rules and if in the future you wish to place an ad, feel free to become a contributing member"

It would take less effort to copy paste this message rather than think of new ways to be unkind.
 
MOD HAT OFF.

I agree. I feel in _most_ circumstances it is an honest mistake. I myself would be EXTREMELY annoyed if I got an infraction for doing something I didn't even know was against the rules.

Mr. Lavender did NOT post a for sale ad, he merely said "Hey come see my Tesseras at xxx show." I know a bunch of us saw KJ's Tesseras at Daytona, the first year, and they sure as heck weren't for sale!! I saw The Mystery snake at a show, he wasn't for sale. I saw The Khaki Corn at a show, he wasn't for sale.

I would be very happy to see a milder reminder, such as Oren suggests, for a first occurrence, for a new member, who surely hasn't had time to ferret out every single intricacy of posting here.

[/REMOVE MOD HAT]

Okay, whatever- what's done is done- can we just let it drop now? Everyone, please??
 
PS, if you all want to be mad at someone, be mad at me. I saw the original post, decided it was all right, although narrowly, and let it go, adding a PM about contributing members, for sale ads, benefits, blah blah blah. If I'd just removed the dang thing and hopefully explained BETTER, this wouldn't have all blown up. SO BLAME ME.

It's all about ATTITUDE, fella. Take a look at your responses from an objective point of view and take note how you APPEAR in others' eyes. You started this thread with an obvious chip on your shoulder and now act all butt hurt because I flicked that chip. You WANTED a public confrontation and you got it. Yay for you.....

YOU chose the way you wanted to handle this. So please stop whining about getting what you asked for.
 
That apparently indirectly answered my question. No further questions. In the event that I desire traffic. I will attempt, to give blind obedience.
 
I been looking at your posts Lavender. Cause I noticed your from my state. I can't find a single post where you have mentioned or offered anything for sale. What post is this thread supposed to be about? How far from Athens Alabama are you?
