Wow, is there an octagon MMA GTG I did not know about?

I have been to 10 or 15 GTGs around the country and although there are a few people I would rather not get cornered by after 10 beers everyone is friendly and helpful, and as Franc said, I have gained many unique friendships from this place, and at this point whether someone even has a crossfire anymore is irrelevant...

Seems that thread was going nowhere. Whether I agree with your position there or not,,,,,it needed to be shut down, closed. Not deleted but left for all to read...
Any thread that degrades to that rabble should be closed. No one needs to be banned, or shorted,just close it. Because with each posting,there is a desperate need to give the last pathetic word.

Valk was spot on right to excercise the Mod authority. More of it, would mean less crap here.

Thanks Valky ya got my vote.
Just stopped in to say good morning and isn't it amazing how wandering off topic in a thread in multiple replies, isn't a problem unless I'm posting?

EDIT: Just dawned on me.. isn't that Jesus Christlers line? You know.. persecution kinda thing?

If your standing by the track switch.. two trains are on the same track at 45mph heading towards each other.

(A) RUNAWAY
(B) STAY AND WATCH THE WRECK
(C) FLIP THE SWITCH AND EVERYONE CAN HAVE A NICE DAY.

(you will be graded by your answer which directly multiplies into your IQ score)

Actualy that was not a wandering. It was in fact, precisely about censorship. Or were you unaware of the original topic?

That said yes, we still wandered a bit. I'm as guilty as anyone and apologize when called on it.

It's what adults do in a conversation.

When Rush visited my plant, no one made any threats. What he saw and experienced was not thepicture he had previously painted with his posted presumptions about what a sweatshop I must be running.

Perhaps he was intimdated by the reality of what he experienced but no one, including me threatened him in any way.

Those who have met me in person know well, I am just 210lbs of tall ugly. That may seem intimidating, but being 210 Lbs of tall and ugly, I need prove any manhood and grit to know one. So any suggestion that I or anyone of my staff, is a pure baseless lie.

And for that matter the same applies to anyone of whom I know in this Forum,

Rush just seems to be an utterly unhappy person. Coming to that realization made it a fruitless effort to connsider his posts any further. UI haven't responde to him in 18 months, First time and all can see his chronic bitterness

This thread has reached the inevitable end of usefulness.

Time to close it down


Mods, are you paying attention?

I'd have to agree. Everything that needed to be said was said. And then some.

Cheers,
