Reopening the hot girlfriends thread, allowing a 24 hour political rant, taking personal responsibility for the 2012 build. Is this somehow related to recent ballot propositions in CO?
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

Post something political or threatening and see how lax LowLight truly is LOL

I got a 5-day ban a while back for posting in the 2nd Amendment section and didn't think I was being political at all. Not sure if LL pulled the trigger on me or which mod, but I didn't even receive a warning. Hell, I don't even know what triggered it, so I just keep my mouth shut now LOL.
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

I kinda thought the 24 hr thread about the election let everyone vent their frustrations. Pretty good idea since I for one was so frustrated and seeing others feeling the same did make it better for a bit.

Compared to other forums I've visited I think this is a pretty well run site, lots of good info here but also some BS you need to sort thru. The skill levels of members of this site range from first time shooters to the very top of their fields in ballistics and shooting skills.

It's his site, we're his guests and can use this site for entertainment, enlightenment, enhancement of our skills and also share our LR shooting passion with others in both learning and teaching modes.

Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

Somebody always has to throw the jinx flag...

Not lax, considerate. I know I chafe at the no politics policy, but as above, conform with it because it gives the site a unique flavor, and that flavor is tasty. It helped to be able to scratch that itch, even of it was just a "Bitch for a Day" thing.

The bare girlfriends thread is a timebomb, just waiting for an ex to grind an axe. We all get caught up in the net when that bomb pops.

The build thread experiment has potential, in a time when not doing it could have eradicated a streak of most excellent annual inventions. Simply put, if he hadn't, it could have caused a bleak reality, and who else is ready to step up to that plate? Yeah it's pricey and I'm not ready for that kind of expenditure myself; but a few here are, and I applaud their participation.

Finally, I'm sure LL can handle criticism, but I'm not quite certain what purpose bringing it serves.

Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

Greg, not criticism... just an observation. I have to laugh a little. What's next? NOBODY as a moderator? No more than 3 shots per group?

The Hitler parody isn't even funny any more.
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

It's the kinder, gentler, version of me...

And I have always allowed a 24 hour post election bitch thread, some just haven't been around long enough to notice.

Lots of requests to re-open the HGF Thread, so I did... see where it goes I can always lock it again.

Besides, while I may get a majority of the flak, it is not me you have to worry about, the other moderators are much worse at handing out punishments than I am... I am usually the one reducing their sentences. Still I get the blame which is fine by me. Slip, and Darth Rob will choke you out.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Originally Posted By: Carter Mayfield</div><div class="ubbcode-body">What's next? NOBODY as a moderator?</div></div>Perhaps not, but he was here a week ago, and for a few days, under two accounts.
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

Two, I think he managed 4 accounts, the mods stopped a couple before he posted.

I personally like Larry and would have no issue letting Nobody participate on this forum. He just causes too many moderator alerts because people are offended when he calls them a candy ass or swears too often. For me, I have no issue with Larry, if not for others, he would still be posting. It's the lesser of two evils, removing him is easier than dealing with the whining

NOBODY spirit is still with us. I saw his tried and true barrel break in method just the other day by a very respected sponsor and gunsmith. Jerod practically mentioned him by name!

I can appreciate where Nobody is coming from, but damn... The man who raised me would have beat me with a fucking sand shovel for talking to people like that.

Hey, I'm not complaining. Nor do you owe anyone an explanation of your decision-making. I just made an observation about a whole bunch of decisions being made at once that just point to a little easing up.

I ran a forum once, so I know about the belly-aching that goes on. It's like "Really? You are upset because someone challenged you on the Internet? Get over yourself."

I kind of miss Larry from time to time. He was an entity that made the site interesting. Unfortunately, now when he comes back under various aliases, he tries to get in as many hits as possible over the course of a couple of days because he expects to get banned. I think even he gets sick of himself.
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

If you stretch your geometric logic,,,everything is potentially political..
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

Larry is awesome, except for the part where someone forgot to beat some manners into him as a child. If he could act as a civilized human bring, he'd be a great contributor to the site. The dude certainly knows a shit-ton about shooting, and has a very interesting perspective on the practical use of rifles.

He is a logger not a secretary. You will usually become the people you hang out with. I think none of them eat quiche.

Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

Prsonally I think LL might have gotten laid. Maybe some "Hot Babe" was feeling sorry for the little guy and threw a sympathy fuck his way, I don't know.

My guess is that the guy is pretty cool in person, and judging by the pictures he posts, he sure knows how to have fun outdoors.

No worse than the 1 year ban I got on my birthday.

I admit the countdown in the Shout Box was pretty amusing.

They aren't called sympathy fucks unless someone has died, they are called pity fucks. But they work too...

Thanks for setting me straight, wasn't sure.

I do know I've never been lucky or unlucky enough to recieve one, even after on the knees begging and groveling.
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

Wow,

Not sure how to take people speculating on my sex life, but I assure you pity is not a word used.

I'd give you answer as to why, but its not something I feel like discussing.

Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

taking the oppurtunity to kiss the CO's butt:

when a person (rather handsome might i add....no, i'm not gay) has amassed the knowledge and wisdom that only such a worldy man of such power can possess, he sometimes makes infallible decisions to further enhance the lives of those that attempt to follow in his footsteps.

Godly in many ways, the commandments of which were created by him are sometimes eased as they are viewed by he who rules over his kingdom as applicable to better the common good to overcome the injustices and evils that manifest throughout the present day.

long live the king, may lady gaga trumpet his presence throughout the land.

could that earn a "get out of being banned" card?
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

I dunno...

When I met LL a few years ago, I said to my friend, "I bet that little guy is rich and has a giant schlong. Prolly can hammer away like a porn star in bed, too!".

Naturally, my friend concurred with my observation.
 
Re: Anybody notice LL getting lax lately?

What tickles me the most is the spirit of this crowd. All ready and willing to mess with the single person who can shut the lights off on the whole operation.

You guys are patriots. Keep up the good fight!
