The race to 50, who will it be today and what do they want

[RustyHornet]

I thought that was a Mod thing...

I never got that memo.

When I grow up. I want to have over 50 posts

I've got over 50, still haven't grown up. I read the FAQs again and I saw that it said 50 quality posts to use classifieds, I doubt I'll ever make it.

Thanks for clearing that up for the rest of us.

Whats not clear? I don't like being accused of doing something Im not.

Wow, Im the one who had the ppq posted, why would you ever imply that I am running a business in the classifieds?? What business takes a new $550 gun and sells it for $500? I have a large collection. I used to susbscribe to the 2 is 1 and 1 is none theory, hence why I have had new guns for sale, they were the second "backup". Now Im seeing that may have been overboard and would like to slim my collection down. Thanks for implying I am a criminal. I am not, I am just big into collecting and shooting. After your accusing email trying to imply I was a business running out of the classifieds (even though you wanted my gun?) I closed my for sale ads on guns and that is why I changed my mind about selling you that PPQ. Then I read that you posted this as well?? Way to look out for your fellow shooting ethusiasts, accusing them of being a criminal. I would suggest other members stear clear, seems suspect....

First off, I want you to know, that I don't care, one way or the other .....

i have been here since 2009, and have never sold anything..... Bought things YES .....

Your "history" shows 122 Posts, that "count" .....

You have 41 Started threads ..... MOST of them wts/wtt/wtb .....

Again I don't care .....

You look at other members here as long as I have been, some have less posts, some have more .....

"We" contribute to this site, by spending money, posting, some are Mods, and whatever goes on, that I have no idea, whats happening...

Just relax, and enjoy ..... This is a "great" place to visit .....

Had you actually participated in God knows when, you would realize that this is an attempt at gallows humor in tandem with recognizing that the Kenyan intends to brand anyone selling so much as the grand total of one gun a 'dealer'.

I believe the implication is that the .gov is about to rebrand you as a criminal, not that you already are one. Then again, if you participated anywhere other than the classifieds, you would already know that.

I get what you are saying. It is true that I don't post a lot in the forums as I don't usually feel the need to add a comment like "yeah me too" all the time. I enjoy shooting and collecting firearms way more than I do talking about them. ie my lower post count. I guess it was the approach that bothered me about the situation. I am trying to enjoy the hobby as much as everyone else here.

I did not see you being called a criminal.
65 active forum posts since 2009 and how many in the classifieds.....

Me thinks you may be a bit sensitive.....

 

[bman1903]

this is an attempt at gallows humor

If it was just from the original post I could see that, but I also received an email from this member that leads me to believe it was not an attempt at humor, which I received before seeing the post from this thread.

If it was an attempt at humor, my mistake.

I just saw this post.

The members (active) watch over the place. We have been literally over run with 50 post wonders since Sandy Hook so they/we are a bit sensitive to this.

I for 1 do not think E-Mailing members over Forum issues is a good idea and it will be frowned upon.
If it is a personal issue that is one thing but Forum issues should and will be addressed by the Mod staff.
We are always available. Use us.


Man that did not come out right........
