How about us users have banning authority, that should work out well... less pressure off the staff anyway.
So I am getting complaints because of This bullshit,
- Thread starter Lowlight
- Start date
LL said "we're being watched" and IMO that's only inviting the outliers on this site to a call to action. I bet in their own way they feel like they're contributing and doing exactly what LL intended. If there are spies and moles, gotta call 'em out. That's how they took it.
Or maybe this describes me better.
All 2A related forums are “being watched.” Whether officially or unofficially.
There’s always someone from the other side hunting around online for anything that can be a black eye.
This is why anything borderline gets called out or deleted. It’s very well possible the poster had no ill intentions and used some unfortunate wording. Other times the poster knows very well what they are implying and they are trying to be clever with their wording by keeping it borderline. Both are handled the same way as no one has time to sort it out and no one wants any black eyes.
I really dont want to look through a decade of news articles.
One of the members was mocking the media saying how "my 8 year old can shoot that distance easy" or something like that. It made its way to the news.
Last night Don Lemon was retelling HMFIC's story about waving his dick at the zips.
The chaplain turned eighteen shades of red when he dropped into the berthing while two of the guys were showing off their home video on the lounge TV of them spit roasting a hooker in Rota.
Don't put words in my mouth,
You are being watched, that does not mean they are infiltrated here and baiting you, it means this is a gun site, everyone watches it, and if you start getting to anti-government or say something dangerous, you will get slapped, because as routine this site is being monitored
That said, News organizations are trying to blame "Right Wing" extremists for the violence out there. Where do you think lazy journalists are gonna hang out, here, my point with the Trump Jr article was to show they already know about this place. It was not to say they are doing it now, but they did it before. So if they were before and used screenshots of the site, they will do it again, replace DTJ with your posts plastered across the news.
You all don't get it or want to be purposely hardheaded on this subject. Saying stupid shit on the internet has gone from funny to serious in many cases. You can get taxed by off-hand comments read by those who want to point their crooked finger at you.
Hence my issues

LOL! Probably that brothel across the street and down from the bar "Paraguay's". I vaguely remember that place and the "two dogs" behind the bar (there's was actually only one, but I was so blitz'ed, I was seeing double at the time). My "libo buddy" decided he needed to dip his wick, so I just sat at the bar, drank more and acted as the local interpreter (the previous float I had been detached to an Intel unit there, and lived on Rota for a few months; I also spoke the language properly). Rota was a fun place, especially after the fleet left. Fun times...
I'd be just as curious on who the top 3 BS whiners are.... if there were such.
Now I low crawl back to my poors cardboard box under the bridge with my kind where I belong.
I apologize to @TheGerman for poors fouling his post.
Pleeze Mr. German, make the headshot quick so I dont suffer long.
Actually that sounds more like something where we'd block you in and set your box on fire
Waitaminnit!
I've been to Rota a few times and never seen the spit roasting up close.
Sounds a bit intrusive yet maybe a bit pleasurable for said hooker.
Got any pics?
Asking for a friend...

Lower Alabama is too wet to burn most of the year 723% humidity. Though, wax coated box may just catch.
People are getting mad at me and saying this AM I am on a "Power Trip"
User Reported a MODERATOR for the post, which he admits, the mod was trying to help, but he didn't want it or ask for it, so it was reported as SPAM
When I questioned him about reporting my mod, for what I considered a helpful post, he told me to get off my Power Trip.
So, now, and this was the not first, I have been temporarily banning people for frivolous reports, as noted above, I am on a Power Trip
If I pointed out the post, you'd probably agree with me over him, but who knows,

For those of us who havent had the pleasure, where is Rota. googled it but didnt bring up much that seemed to apply.
My biggest fear is that they end up quoting my post critiquing @Saclee Rhino 's 'tactical loadout' to outline how elitist and well equipped we must all be, and in the process put his 'loadout' picture on TV.
This then causes a mass influx of fobbits, ARFCOMers and the people we shook off when we left Scout to reappear all posting his loadout pic as a reference to this bad ass sniper setup they want to mimic and making endless threads trying to find out what it all is.
Oh God.

I did some messed up shit in Rota, once, LOL
Cadiz, Seville, Malaga, and Rota, nice places to party

Palma de Mallorca...lol, now that's where I got into some stuff! (There's a Dutch school there for hotel and airlines service employees. Talk about a target rich environment for young trigger pullers...) You could trip and fall in some %#$@ there, the women were so numerous.
Frank I feel your pain. not good.
A lot of posts above some of you were posting about ticks in your ball sack and how bad that is. I agree %100 .
Let me tell you about some leeches. Blood sucking Mother Fuckers.
About 50+ years ago some friends and I were out on a "Guided" hunt sponsored by the US Army. Air transportation, rifles and all of the ammo you could shoot along with "Box Lunches." and a pack to carry all of this shit in., Oh and canteens too were provided. Fill them up when the water was good.
We were wading through some of Vietnam's pristine waters and rice fields going on this "Hunt" when one of the guys on the team got a leech right up his Johnson, sucking blood and getting bigger and bigger.
He tried, but failed, to extract that bastard and in the end he got "Roped Out" but he had to tie his own "Swiss Seat." as none of us wanted to do the tying but we would have had it come to that.
He went out on a rope under a Huey but he would never relate to us what the Docs did to him.
He was back in the bushes 4 days later, going strong.

I would suggest really knowing your shit if you get into it with padom.
I did once when I was a noob, still think I was right.
But my ass still hurts. Lol

Just to make sure I understand. (I'm a little slow)
@AirCapitalOutdoors started a thread and then reported @padom for responding and offering an alternative?
What a douche.
Wait what?!?! What a fucking douchebag.. Not the first time he's done some douchery like that and got banned. Probably won't be the last
Yep, that's why I rejected it, with a note that Mods aren't spamming anything. Apparently he persisted.
Yes, he reported @padom as spam for his single post in that WTB thread
When I confronted him after seeing it, he said I was power tripping

Im glad I didnt see it I would have banned him for good. Hes been banned for stupid waste of time shit like this before.
I didn't ban him but made it so his experience will be less than desirable if he hangs around
On a power trip? It's your fucking site! Be on whatever trip you want!
Ok, I am coming out; first post but have enjoyed the site after I starter reading the Precision Rifle Marksmanship book. I am a Norwegian and will by most of you be categorized as living in a socialist hell hole (even thou we have hade a conservative government the last 7 years). I have enjoyed the high level of discussions of MRAD vs MOA, load development in handloads, twist rates and other great subjects from the side.
I really hope the forum manages to keep its source of factual shooting information alive and thriving.
Oh, before I get the anti-2nd stamp this is a photo of me and two friends testing som H-S Precision rifles out to 1208 yards in SD last October; I am the guy in the middle; and also as industry guy been at SHOT the last two years ;-)

I actually asked him that, because he leads with that comment,
I said if you are running your business do you consider that a power trip?
I had a complaint against a moderator for Spamming, I investigated it, what I needed to Fire @padom for an "ethics" violation, we are in a new era where people can get fired for any reason at all,
He got all hot and bothered I was hassling him, as if I went looking for this guy

It’ll definitely always be a source for factual information. The members/mods/owner are very quick to run off the bad info suppliers.
This definitely ain’t the site to bring the circa 1980 stuff to. Thankfully
The nice part, the political BS doesn't leave the Bear Pit or the Bar, so the rest of the site is pretty secure
We have a lot of subforums, most have great information and when that strays, usually it's brought back on track quickly. The Bar and Pit are more for entertainment and releasing of steam so it's not found in the other sections

I would like to speak to Lowlight's manager.
Maser! He’s not gonna let you suck his dick!
hey now,
I might, you never know, Mazerblade could have some mad skills hiding behind that avatar
He could be a Wizard of the Waist Area, don't go discounting his skills without investigating it
Mazerblade give us a link to your personal porn videos, so we can check out your skillsets in order to determine
he could be better than riding a moped
I just spit wine through my nose....
Thanks...
It's extra funny because Don Lemon probably has a pencil-dick. If he has one at all.

Avatar huh? Maybe you should see where it's from and decide if I'm as much as a douchebag as the kid in my avatar.
You don't want to know... it's sort of like the Tijuana of the Navy.
Near Cadiz. One of the more interesting leave ports. If you think that Subic is a den of iniquity... well ROTA might just make that look like High Mass at Vatican City. (Maybe that's a bad analogy.)
Anyway, what do I know. I was in marketing.

Welcome aboard. And as someone who loves Norway and has motorcycled the length and breadth of it... in the snow... I will say Norway may have a reputation for socialism... but its reputation has NOTHING to do with how awesome the place is! I have stayed with Norwegians at their farms... shot with them... checked out a tank in one of their barns... climbed the Norsk Hydro cliffs (nearly killed me in June, how you guys did it in winter is beyond me).
Anyone from Norway is a welcome addition to SH... and an instant friend! Welcome to SH and looking forward to having you as a contributor here!
Cheers,
Sirhr
P.S. I will say, never get in front of a Norwegian in a buffet line on a ferry. They'll kill ya. I mean really... they'll kill ya!
