One of my favorite things about this place is how style is so unimportant, but substance takes the cake. Except for City and Daryl, however. Those two cats are all about style.
There is a huge difference between guys who ask tough questions to stir things up, like two others were doing this week, and guys who ask tough questions because they want to learn more... John is always trying to learn, and YODA can handle the tough questions. Could be a match made in heaven, and boneheads like me can learn from the exchange.

That's fine Kevin. But how about this solution. What if we had some area within the Forum for some of us who don't want to deal with all of this shit from people constantly challenging us on basic crap. How about if it were password protected and required a hundred posts before someone could enter so some of us could discuss stuff without being harassed like this. 75% of the Forum should be protected this way. We've suffered the absence of a lot of knowledgeable members because they couldn't take this crap anymore. Look at it this way: I'm one of the highest posting members on this site and I don't know shit sometimes. Wouldn't our members appreciate a forum that had more knowledgeable members than me?
I don't mind a little banter once in awhile like everyone else but not right in the middle of a good thread. It's destructive. It might be fun for john grahm but how would he like it if I went to his forum and started taking jabs like he did. He doesn't respect that others may be having a conversation and some of the people care enough about it not to have that thread disrupted by bullshit challenges.
If he doesn't like TGM or agree with some of the principles then WHY TELL US. I don't care if he believes in Bozo golf. Who cares. Fuc* off. I'm not here to convince the world of TGM. I only care what I and other like minded members care about sharing and discussing TGM related information.

I apologize Daryl.

Hey Kev, you don't owe me an apology. You made a very valid point about Johns intentions. You're always level headed and you always make sense to me and I respect and admire you for it.
It's not you, it's me. I've seen a lot of it. Not as much as Yoda or Bucket but they have better "Character" than me. I don't have the high "Stress Threshold" that you and they have. I lash out.
Daryl,
I look forward to you posts and have had many thought provoking moments because of them. Would hate to be excluded because my interest is to learn from the many intriguing discussions. Having people post just to reach a certain number is not in the best interest of the forum. Recent examples attest to this.
All of us get frustrated by interruptions and frivolous comments.
This is still the best place to be.

Your right. I always read your posts and I look forward to them and your insight.
Thank you
I've been working on a personal breakthrough on Low Point and Hinging for O.B.'s thread for three days now, and it keeps getting interrupted, and now, if you visit the thread, it's turned into "We again need to put everything on hold to prove Hinge Action exists." ok, that's life.
I don't have the high "Stress Threshold" that you and they have. I lash out.
