Dougy Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 last night i put a comment on this forum regarding the effectivness of a product that was being sold in the correct section "the for sale section" i also put on a tip about how not to loose this item as i had done so, and had to buy another to replace it. now although good for sales,specially if your allways loosing and replacing the item, what would have been even better for sales was the photo i was going to put on with the tip about how not to loose it in the first place. We have enough red tape and Bureaucracy to deal with in our work place, do we need to be subjected to the same over strict ruling on a generally sociable forum such as PW If this were the case I would think that the joke section should contain quite a few more pages, posting a light hearted jovial comment about a mistake that a member has done or similar should it really be in the fields sports section or should it be moved to the joke section, were it has no meaning whatsoever, like the post that was removed by the mods, anyway moan over but surely you must see my point but there again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cranfield Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 It looks as though that post was deleted in error and so it has been replaced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

henry d Posted November 1, 2007 Report Share Posted November 1, 2007 i had the same trouble - i put a new post in my For sale thread( adding a bit more info and also telling people they could have the bipod with the gun) - 17HMR - and got it deleted/edited because i apprently was bumping my thread That`s not quite everything is it? The original post was Oct 30 2007, 04:50 PM, then Yesterday 08:11 AM you added gunslip and bipod, 08:51 AM it was bumped by another member with just chit chat, to which you replied @ 01:55 PM Saying...... "I'd have thought it would be gone by now !!! Obviously people don't know what a good bit of kit it is... if it does not go by the weekend, i'll just save up for the 22-250 and keep this in the cabinet." You then replied to say you had only used xxx ammo, at this stage I thought you had over stepped the mark and as a moderator I trimmed the unnecessary and merged the posts that you should have done yourself, as per the pinned topics you are asked to read. So all in all it was a little more than "because i apprently was bumping my thread " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mungler Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Indeed, he came back to moan about the content, how the forum is in decline and how the mods are like traffic wardens. Col, don't take this the wrong way fella, but why don't you just **** right off eh? I understand that misery enjoys company, so go and be miserable somewhere else.

ME Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Indeed, he came back to moan about the content, how the forum is in decline and how the mods are like traffic wardens. Col, don't take this the wrong way fella, but why don't you just **** right off eh? I understand that misery enjoys company, so go and be miserable somewhere else. I would like to moan about Mung moaning about Col moaning. Is there a General Moaning section ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ME Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 You're in it! Moan away, everyone else is. During the war we had proper moaning you know. I have noted a better quality of moaning on other forums. There just isn't the community spirit of moaning nowadays. I suggest a re-branding exercise might change the future of PW - what about "Moan-Watch (encorporating ****** Watch)" ? MOAN, MOAN, MOAN, MOAN.......

digger Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Mung, my post was not a moan per se more of an indication that moaning breeds moaning. Lv has added his moan to a gripe from col that was more of a whinge, bleating aside it was also a bit of a snipe with a hint of complaining. I have added my gripe in order to clear up any confusion as to whether col should do one = yes he should Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mungler Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Digger, I dunno fella, that sounds more like an expression of dissatisfaction to me and that's just a hop, skip, jump and a hey nonny nonny away from complaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berettaman1 Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Ha, you kids you don't know your born these days was that a grunt of disapproval or a whine ? No,, No No, that was ,"in my opinion more of a moan" althou truth told I dont think anyone moans more than ME! I have moaned more on this forum more than anyone else, Moaning that I dont get the respect I think I should get when I tell of my yesterday shooting/ roadracing/ exploits to guys who dont know me, or even care a //// about anythink I say or do!, Allthough my best moaning is allways after I get P////d((daily I confess!, This as you all know is now a daily ritual, in retrospect I allways feel stupid next day and read the claptrap I have posted when drunk! Why I remember the old days when I didnt get P///d and I used to...Mumble Mumble, hadnt ought to be allowed ...zzzzzzzzz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
digger Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 I remember when there was no moaning on this forum, well actually I dont. We are nearly at the point of ex members signing up again to bitch and squeal ! Oh, thats happened. At least we got this far without Berretaman joining in ? Damn, fooled again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinbum71 Posted November 4, 2007 Report Share Posted November 4, 2007 Ive just had a post for my Career 707 for sale removed within 30 mins! A couple of replies seemed unhappy I'd mentioned it could be used in FAC or legal limit form (subject to legal reqs of course), but post under it was for .223 Steyr!! Is this site run by anti-gun nuts or what?! Can anyone recomend a site run by people who know about shooting? Nick PS if this post is here in an hour I'll be suprised!
