No offense, but it's getting kind of old - I like to log into the board and find out if there are any interesting discussions I can read and possible participate in. Your machine-gun post spam is making it tough to find the actual content buried under the "hey look I'm posting in this thread so I can own the front page" stuff being spammed into every thread.

+1

MM I am not spamming just trying to help the board get to 400k posts. I asked yesterday if everyone was OK with me posting a bunch to help out and the overwhelming answer was yes.

Get over it

That is actually why the death chat was created. Mag and I destroyed the board in our run to JYD. It does lead to chaos in the posts.

Well clearly not everyone is OK with it, because so far everyone who's posted in this thread seems against it.


Post in the death chat a bunch if you want to say meaningless crap - that's the whole reason the death chat was created.

Well said.

No worries I'll just stop posting all together. Mustard Man & Sportsnut you are just a couple of bored dorky, weekend warrior wannabe's.

I was trying to pitch in and help out the board, The Yard, Dan and Renee.

See ya boys

I'm in complete agreement with Mustard Man and it's too bad you feel the need to tell someone to "get over it".

The above post tells a lot about you. You really don't need to be that way. Mustardman wasn't being a dick when he first posted, just saying.........

dude, that is not what the yard is about, why have an attitude like that, completely un called for, you can post all you want in death chat. I am sure nobody wants to see you leave but drop the name calling, I know it is real easy to do when you are sitting behind your computer screen but really we don't need it.

Sportsnut you and Mustardman letting a few posts get to you to the point of complaining about it speaks volumes about you in my mind as well.

Have you not been reading all the posts about hitting the 400k mark etc... Once again that is what I was trying to do is help the board. I even asked yesterday before I starting posting as much as I have been.

I'd much prefer to buy knives than post anyways but I was trying to be helpful since there are quite a few nice people on this board.

To the rest of the board aside from MM & Sportsnut MY APOLOGIES I had good intentions.

Sportsnut & MM I really don't care about your opinions, replies or comments at all

Fair enough ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

can't we just play nice? <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

LOL, evidently not from behind the keyboard. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[color:" red"]Gentlemen, I'd like to remind you all that the absence of posts like those above are what make the yard our favorite forum.[/color]

MM, you could have chosen gentler words to get your point across.

Colt, I should have told you the last time you did this that there was a bit of backlash from Dan when we did this years ago. I didn't see it added to the rules thread so I don't hold you responsible for trying it again for a screen shot.

Trust me, with the amount of annoyance those posts were causing me, the words I chose were MUCH gentler than what I really wanted to say. I get loads of awesome information from the Dogs on these boards, and to not be able to find that information drives me nuts.



As far as my comments telling coltman about my character, I would say the number of times I've proxied for or otherwise helped out other Dogs speaks a lot more about my character than complaining about his content-free posts. I wonder how many thousands of dollars of debt Coltman has had on HIS credit card, just to be able to get hard-to-snag knives from shows to his brethren at the Yard.

Colt- no reason to get pissy <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbdn.gif" alt="" />. MM- mag and others were merely trying to help. Believe me- this group is VERY forgiving about posting. They put up with my terrible spelling- grammar and dumb [censored] questions for a long time now <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/paperbag.gif" alt="" />. The manner of your posting was getting to the point where I could find nothing of value as you buried the thread. Go on over to death chat and he guys will greet you with open arms. Somebody had to say SOMETHING and MM was actually polite. Hang in there my friend-Thanks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

Guys - don't get your knickers in a twist! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> I'm sure that no harm was intended and we shouldn't be getting excited over nothing. In the past when we didn't have many Dogs posting - usually late at night, a few Dogs DID in fact post so that they could "own the page". A couple even posted pictures of the board to prove that they did it. I never quite made it myself, but I understand the desire to do so. Again, I'm sure that no harm was ever intended.

Now that the Bussekin forums - Scrap Yard in particular <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> - are much busier and continually getting new members, it might be good that we don't "machine-gun " posts in order to "own the page". Topics DO have a tendency to get lost in the shuffle. Rapid-fire posts are great in the Death Chat when trying to help a fellow Dog advance his status, and I would encourage the "Dogs helping Dogs" approach.

So, let's all take a deep breath, relax, and remember the fellowship enjoyed by The Brotherhood of the Yard! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Tom

Well said Tom <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />- and it makes it easier for old feeble guys like me to read the board. In DC I can barely keep up- but the guys are ALWAYS very understanding <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />-Happy Holidays <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

Thanks Bob! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> I understand the difficulty of keeping up in the Death Chat - even with my new "high speed " internet service I can't keep up with the "light year" speed guys like Mag22! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Private Klink. Thank you for the very polite and professional message. I do want you to suspend my account though.

Dealing with nonsense like this is just silly. I am a grown man and have better things to do than play in cyber space.

I do hope I will still be allowed to buy Scrap Yard Knives though.

Merry Christmas to The Yard

Why are you taking this so personal, dude? You made a bunch of annoying posts, and we fairly politely asked you to knock it off. You are acting like we stole candy from your baby and kicked your grandmother.


No need to be so melodramatic.

Come on guys -- relax your sphincters! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

I dunno about my sphincter, but I'm pretty relaxed <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> Don't worry --- be happy! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

MM I am not being melodramatic at all. I have a full time job and own my own business, a great girl friend and tons of hobbies. I have never posted on a forum before until this one. It has never been my thing as in all honesty it's kind of a waste of time.

When I joined this forum I kind of thought it was a pre-requisite in order to purchase a knife considering the cult following the Busse knives have.

Seeing the reaction from a couple of you confirmed the fact why I have never joined a forum up to this point.

This just isn't for me.

Not that this thread needs anyone else chiming in, but I don't see why you'd want Tom to suspend your account -- if you don't want to post anymore, then just don't. However (and I say this as someone who's gotten by back up, and considered leaving in the past), why burn bridges in case you change your mind once things are calmer.

Good advice Jim! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />

I agree Colt- just come on over to DC and you can post all you want <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />. These guys are a wealth of info and great folks to boot. Jim & MM have done proxy many times for fellow dogs as have I. When the S5LE came out I wanted my JYD # and Jim made sure i got it when I had family affairs at the hospital. MM bought a crap load of knives for folks ( Jim too) and didn't make a single dime off of it. I also own my own business and employ many folks. I hear constructive comments all day long and just smile. So- smile- join in and enjoy- really great folks here <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />-Thanks <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I don't believe you.

If you want to go, by all means go. Get it over with already.

I'm by no means perfect, but did it ever occur to you that maybe you were wrong ! The "jury" pretty much laid it out for you, but you insist to carry on like a child. Like others have said, get over it and carry on. No harm no foul..................

<img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

CM, I started a thread to help getting the number up. I understand your intentions of promoting the board too. I do suggest holding off suspending your account. You never know if you might check in or want to post. I was a member of a great FAL site several years ago. Some things happened and I did not care to go along with an agenda that was being pushed. I am still a member there, check in every now and then but don't frequent it much because it lost the "family" feel. Now, DC--get to it as there is some great discussions over there.
