Checked Florida Gun Trader Lately?

[DSPLCD1]

We got some free advertisement. A member was nice enough to promote the Forum there.
Check it out. It's a good read.

No secret who that is , he sure is bitter. I’m starting to think some old guy stole his bride.

 

[FowlHunter13]

Must have been someone that was booted for being a douche and had to vent his frustrations. Poor little guy!

edit: I just looked up the ad on FGT and looks like I was correct. He didn’t even change his name.

Someone put a lot of time and effort into writing what looks to be a half-bit slam piece.

Whoever wrote this has a lot of extra time on their hands.. & they apparently value their own opinion a hell of a lot more than I do.

That being said.. Is it just me.. or does the Vernacular seem kinda familiar?
In my opinion, seems similar to some of the wording and sentence structure from some of the rants I have read before on the buyer/seller review forum...

I'd be willing to bet a social security check that a member here wrote that.
Sounds just like several of our members almost exact duplicate posts. --- SAWMAN

Who ever it is , seems to be trying to cover up some Inadequacy .

I cropped out the name in the screen shots so I would not create a ruckus.

I noticed that.. Probably for the best.
Well done.

In reading I thought it looked familiar until towards the end when I read "...because they are the poors..." and then I knew exactly who it was.

While there is some truth to it, I find the bad mouthing to be in poor taste. Oh well, free advertising. The membership is getting stale.
Quite literally.

 

[polebarn]

Is it still up? I couldn’t find it but I did find a lot of spam ads which I don’t remember being a problem.

Lol, must be cargunguy.

Yep

All of the issues here the last few months all stem from people like himself.

 

[FrankT]

had he been booted and I missed all the drama...damn? I thought it was a nicer cleaner atmosphere as of late

 

[Welldoya]

Has he been kicked off? If not, he should be. There is no need for immature BS like that.
I ignored his immature arrogance for a long time but we don’t need people like that here.

I am an FNG that lurked here for months before I joined. I did that on the advice of a friend who used to be stationed in NWF. I will say that this forum has a very tight set of unspoken rules and a member hierarchy that makes me not want reach out join the forum's shooting/hunting community. I limit that folks I meet at Church and work. Very different from when I lived in and was a forum member in UT, NM, TX and MD. There, most the friends I made I met on gun/hunting/shooting forums. Here it is mostly a place to buy/sell and MAYBE a reloading post here and there.

You joined after armslist became a paid site, so the for sale traffic is up at least 100% from a couple years ago.
Do you base a forum that has sale posts on who you want to become friends with? I'm just trying to understand how you think. I've met probably 25 people off this forum and none of them have been unpleasant. Don't want to argue with you or change your mind.
Glad you're here.

RustedBolt, there are a bunch of good guys here with tons of firearm knowledge.
Cargunguy was the exception. I think he was pretty much a troll, always stirring the pot.
He reminded me of a kid that grew up poor, saved $50,000 and thinks he’s wealthy.
His “everybody is poor but me” line got old fast.
The classifieds section has exploded since Armslist started charging for ads. Lots of new members.
But I do believe that a lot of the active members are on the older side and might’ve curtailed their hunting. I know I have.
A lot of the “member hierarchy” is just pure banter, not mean-spirited.
I think most forums have a few very active members that seem to dominate.
I guarantee that if you treat everyone with respect, the favor will be returned by the established members.

 

[stage20]

Cargunguy knew his guns. He had knowledgeable posts when he wasn't going off about something.
I try to read everything I can. I know where the trigger is. Still looking for the barrel lol. The guys here know their stuff.

I think some of us just need a break from the internet sometimes.

The way he words that sounds bitter and mentally unstable or simply trolling. Who cares.
