They are very opinionated over there on the west coast. Two people in general started harassing me. I'm not one to back down so I responded in the same arrogant manner and that really pissed them off.

They didn't like being told how the cow ate the cabbage.

I had only posted about 15 times on that board in the past so they were all after the newbie. The thread was removed by the moderator.
I went back a few days later to find a thread started by the moderator about posting etiquette. This was done because of previous thread that was deleted. He did a really good job. I could tell he spent a lot of time writing his post. The thread was few days old when I found it. They were still talking about how they chased off the newbie. So, I made a very polite comment to the moderator about what a great job he did on his posting etiquette thread. I also mentioned that it didn't do any good as nobody was following his rules. That thread was then deleted in minutes.
I might send Gunsmoke an email to sign up on that board. He would be relentless. He's very opinionated himself and "He's never wrong".
