the bull on this site
« on: June 14, 2009, 06:20:15 AM »
its sad really  sad....this goes out to everyone....this  gotta stop! we are all in this sport to bowl and on this site to get information to make us better or find out whats next etc. dissagrement are ok but you guys are taking  to far. you make not agree with someone on what they say thats ok you dont have to like it but that doesnt mean you gotta be cruel or mean. all bowling company has thier good and bad points about the equipment they make. a person shouldnt feel threaten about sticking up for what he blieves in whether hes right or wrong. so in closing i like to say why cant we humble are selves like grown men. if your going to have a dissagreement lets not hit below the belt. Be lucky im not moderater i'd bann from the site for these actions.

No offense what so ever to you, however this site is just like life.  There are people who will always look at the positive on an issue, and there will always be people who look at the negative.  Add to that, the anonymous nature of the internet and people will be more of an idiot than there normally are in real life.  It's just the way it is.  Thus the reason I don't post as much as I used to in the past.

At least this site isn't "Overrun" with all the Juveniles that have taken over the PBA Forum at www.pba.com.  

I can't/don't even visit that website anymore.  A few months ago I was just trying to defend a fellow member on the site(who is a close friend) and I got just as bashed as he did.

As always, better moderation on this site is not going to happen.  Better have a thick skin.  

I'd agree with what mrteach3 has written.  "No offense what so ever to you, however this site is just like life. There are people who will always look at the positive on an issue, and there will always be people who look at the negative. Add to that, the anonymous nature of the internet and people will be more of an idiot than there normally are in real life. It's just the way it is.

I understand what you're saying, but as someone said, the PBA forums are much, much worse.

Most of the nonsense that goes on here is just that, nonsense.  Just filter in the good stuff, and just have thick skin with everything else.  It'll help make coming here a bit easier.

Ernie hit it dead on about the spelling and punctuation.  I know that you are just "fast typing", however I've seen that taking the time to "talk" properly will actually help cut down on some of the flak.

Yes, we can do better in our communications with each other. I refuse to get pulled into an argument with anyone because it serves no purpose.

We WILL disagree on things because we are people and have different circumstances that form our opinions. It doesn't mean there's a good guy or bad guy...

I have to admit that it gets really old reading posts between two or three guys acting like they're 13 years old and just slinging insults back and forth. The ONLY reason I continue to post here is because there is a percentage of us who still care how the site looks. I know because I get plenty of personal messages that tell me there is.

I've quoted the old Dave Mason song many times here in an attempt to put across the point we are talking about. "There ain't no good guy, there ain't no bad guy. There's only you and me and we just disagree."

Great post!  I know I have managed to be pulled in on occasion.  I use to frequent the PBA boards as well until some of the absolute juvenile responses that seem prevalent on that sight.  I must say that I enjoy bowling and this site has helped me some but I think some peoples attitudes have also pushed me away from different products or maintenence materials that may have helped.

Wow, just like with every thing else in life.  People blame everyone else.  Guess what, you find it offensive, IGNORE IT and quit whining.  You CHOOSE to read this stuff.  Yeah its everyone elses fault when a moron provides invalid information, gets called on it, and throws a temper tantrum.   WAAAAAAAA to you and all others, get a life.
