fenboy Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Ah my old mucca polestar , funnily I was only wondering where he had gone last night too , I sort of miss him despite us getting under each others skin I was wondering if he has been put on the naughty step after our last encounter , I had a number of PMs saying ( to put it politely ) he was a brick short of a load I do hope he has not been banned for our spat as it really does not affect me as he would like it to and after all the world id a nicer place with the odd eccentric baffoon . Perhaps a Mod could tell us if he is still a member , I would be happy for him to return ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossEM Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Pole Star is still around! Shame that there are still those here (including Mods) who don't give him his due. I know Polestar personally and know that he is a very knowledgeable and intelligent man, and certainly not 'a brick short of a load' etc etc. He is no fan of semi autos/pumps and big bags - being an antique firearms and conservation enthusiast, and as such is guilty only of being more vocal about his reservations than a lot of us are. He has been subjected to a long campaign of harassment which culminated in serious health issues, and has every right to moan about 'the Italians' (having seen and experienced their behaviour first hand, I know his complaints are entirely justified.)

fenboy Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 He is clearly a very knowledgeable chap who has a great love of his sport , that is plain enough to see and I am sure he is a nice enough chap . My issue with him is that he does seem to go to far with his rantings , the one against semi autos really grates with me though as any one should know its not the gun but the bloke pulling the trigger that is the problem and it seems odd to be happy chucking 4 or 5 ounces of lead at a goose out of a big bore but then complain that someone is using three shots ! I agree with much of what he says , especially regarding big bags as some of the things you see are sickening , but he needs to understand we are no lesser sportsmen than him because we have moved with the times and shoot autos.

muncher Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 I too didn't agree with his views on autos but strong opinions are good for a debate or rant hope it's nothing on said on here that's stopped him posting as I liked to read his exploits . So chap come back and keep putting you thoughts into the mix , seen people driven of other forums and they die a slow death without the likes of yourself to enrich the chewing of the fat so to speak.

I know him well also and he is a very knowledgeable and intelligent man in his field , and his experiences are intresting, his views are strong and theirs nothing wrong with that they are good debate material, so I hope that we will hear from him in the near future.

fenboy Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 To be honest I find you far more irritating than I ever did Polestar , at least he had some generally interesting things to say weather I agreed with him or not , where as you just tend to spout this type of drivel Have a nice xmas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fenboy Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 (edited) I don't think so , just because dawntredder did not like the fact I did not agree with his statement that Hatsans and Revos are far better than Beretta , Benelli and Remington versamaxs He feels he now has to knock me on other posts . Let him get on with it , he is making himself look like a plank Edited December 20, 2013 by fenboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Fenboy....I've just bought a new aftershave from Newcastle called 'stalker' for men.It's very much like 'OBSESSION', but a bit stronger....he's behind you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenboy Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Does it mean I am famous now I have a stalker , or does it just mean he's sad ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
happy.plinker Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 I've met pole star a couple of times and he is a knowledgeable likeable chap and very very passionate about conservation and the countryside in general, yes he did let rip on here on certain topics but not on others and as rossEm says there was a lot going on up here with certain people but for legal reasons the 'whole story' could not be told. He's had a colourful life so he should be cut some slack. So if your reading this Polestar get back on here and take a deep breath when someone mentions 'pogo sticks' !!

The Ghost Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 Fenboy....I think if you start telling people they should buy a Hatsan and forget all that Beretta rubbish he would like you a lot more. You could be wrong...after all you are not a gun smith Hatsans may be better than Beretta, Benelli and Remington versamaxs pole star will be back soon I am sure, this site is about opinions and I am sure he can see that others are allowed them as well.

ayano3 Posted December 20, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 I liked to read his posts. Some were interesting some not.. he had his views just like the rest of us and was firm in his beliefs. If we all shared the same thoughts we would all live in the same shape house with the same colour car on the drive and etc etc. I hope he comes back very soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost Posted December 20, 2013 Report Share Posted December 20, 2013 (edited) I have been hunting the long extinct Fenland Tiger Rabbit for many years, most would say that I am mad but the search continues. After years of research, scientists have announced why they became extinct.....It's because they all died....can it be that simple Edited December 20, 2013 by The Ghost Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kent Posted December 21, 2013 Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 Who cares if someone don't like Autos, its their option and any can also argue the case for their use. I just hope he didn't have a run in with the Mafia or anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Posted December 21, 2013 Report Share Posted December 21, 2013 Pole Star is no longer a member of the forum. He has been informed as to why this is. Beyond that, we dont discuss matters between the forum admin and members with anybody other than the individual themselves. Since he isnt able to answer any criticism leveled at him this thread will now close. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
