Gentlemen, Read your link Gene, and I appreciate you posting it, but, I'm sorry that you had to. It's a shame that people have to be
so crappy ( I'm trying to keep it clean). Hate to hear all that negative garbage.
I had brief e-mail exchange with Bob 5-6 weeks ago and it was very pleasant and friendly. Since, I joined this wonderful forum with gob's great info and got my so-called crappy gamo tuned by Gene, which I was overly impressed by.
I'm sure it's a terrible feeling and just p's you off to have someone start this mess.
For me , I say forget those fool's!!  You guy's are Aces with me. Thank You for allowing me to be a member of GTA!!

I just have to say something

First, Tommy you took the words out of my mouth - agree 100% and I was laughing when I saw the pics of the triggers and some of Steve's explanations and reasoning.

2nd:  I used to visit the Yellow forum and although there is a lot of good info there, from day 1 I noticed Steve/NC banning people and deleting posts - on my 1st day there!  It was bad first impressions and I just never got used to it.  It continued day after day, non-stop, and everytime someone spoke up or went against Steve or any of the moderators, he was blocked/banned later that day.  I just could not take the constant censorship & post deletions (almost 2yrs ago), it got too much for me, and then I realized every forum I went to, they were talking about the "dictator Steve" and his "private" Yellow forum - very unhappy people.  I have NEVER read bad things about Bob or Gene or any of the GTA moderators in any of the other forums I visit.  I always read about Steve and the Yellow forum!  So that has to tell you something..  I had only posted there maybe 1/2 dozen times, and finally in 1 post I mentioned about looking into a gun that was tuned by Bob/CDT, and my post got deleted!  I had heard something about Bob & Steve in NC, but just bits and pieces and wasn't thinking about that at all when I posted a question about a tuned (by CDT) gun that I was thinking of purchasing.  Well that was it for me.  I have not posted there since.  The sensorship, post deletion, and the reasoning behind them, that goes on there is beyond anything I have seen anywhere else.  I used to be a moderator for a huge forum when I worked for PRODIGY (ISP) many years ago in the '90's.  The forum had over 100,000 members and we deleted less posts than they do in the Yellow.  'nough said..

No need to delete the thread.  Just move it to the non-productive section.  Peak Chick, if you please?

I, personally, feel that this has been aired enough, both here and on the Crosman.  Prolonged discussion would only promote further disharmony in the AG community, which ain't as big as many would like to believe.  It just ain't worth it.  Besides, Bob's and Gene's work speaks for itself.  That's the final arbiter in any debate.
