My topic "Copyright confusion" was deleted off the yf this morning. I made no reference to anyone just that there was alot of talk of copyright infringement. I did ask if the information in question was so important why was it being posted on the www for the entire world to see? I also mentioned that the air smelled of capitalism & I thought these forums were developed to learn & teach ppl about airgunning. I think I struck a cord with an administration on that forum? Could anyone explain why my post could have possibly been deleted no less than an hour after posting my questions? Actually, I'm speculating that a bunch of intelligent guys over there that probably never see daylight nor the affection of a woman, not-to-mention lack the social skills to interact in the "real world" are finally getting some attention (negative & positive) that they just cannot stop jabbiing a guy when he is down. I bet they are probably the ppl who tortured pets or sat alone at lunch behind a building back in school or reading quantum physics books for entertainment. In fact, I am probably to blame for all of this for it was I who teased & beat the crap out of these nerds & geeks back in school & for that I am sorry. So leave Bob & Gene alone-stop talking about copyright infringement, how many JM springs ppl have bought & just let the forums be the learning vehicles they were designed for rather than the capitalistic machines they are starting to feel like! Sorry for bringing this over to the GTA but it's the only place to voice my opinion that won't get deleted.

I had to laugh at your humor, GTA is only benefiting from any ugly posts over there. We have no quarrels with them and welcome any and all of there members to come here and post. In our air gun forums hopefully.:) There are allot of good people in that forum and some very knowledgeable.
One thing is we want our forum to grow healthy with information and knowledge that our members and new air gunners can benefit from.

Perhaps if not then, you may be now if one of CTsteve's snitches goes running back to the "yellow sandbox" and tattles on you. Sounds juvenile, but that's about how it works with him. I think there is a lot of truth in your speculation.

Not yet! I have that covered in the event it was to happen, not that I care to ever post on the communist forums anytime soon. With all the editing & deleted posts the censorship has become unbearable for me. This is truly a case of a small & powerless man having control of something for once in his life. He thinks banning ppl is the answer, which only tells me he can dish it out but despises the idea of taking it! I figure win some/lose some but then again I am a well-adjusted person. No IQ or knowledge can give you basic common sense. I give it a few months before a full out mutiny erupts.

Here's my blog post about the whole thing.

let me know what you think, cause I agree it's a communist type of regime over there. Very sad, but true.

Hey Robert remember me? I sold you a RWS 320 some years ago. Hope all is well.

Sure do. That thing has been a tack driver ever since. I did give it away to a guy here in Kermit that has terminal cancer though. He needed more than I. He has turned to airgunning to take his mind off things. He's having a blast. How are you doing?
