QUOTE: Originally posted by rda1964 Tim et al: Emeraldisle's original post was inappropriate for this section of the forum, and my personal view inappropriate period. He has no excuse for not being aware of that. I called him on it, as well I should and would do again. I am weary of such immature behaviors. They waste everyone's time having to wade through nonsense and off topic posts to glean the information the actual model railroaders read this forum for. Were this an actively moderated forum I am quite sure he would have been called to heel and the topic deleted. I continue to think, and again propose, the managers of this forum create an additional sub-forum dedicated to nonsense and 'harmless fun', where those so inclined and their intellectual peers can amuse themselves to their hearts content without littering the remainder of the forum with junk posts and personality conflicts. Randy Response to the above, posted today; See below......... How ever inappropriate it may have been, your response was totally without tact and reflects very accurately on your attitude and smugness when it comes to having a little fun. Obviously, you don't how too, or you think it's beneath you to do so. I feel sorry for you and anyone else like you. At 58 years of age, and 50 years in this hobby, I'm still having fun and the day I stop having fun in this hobby, I'll leave it and never look back. I've encountered people like you many times before and consider you a detriment to this fine hobby. Your arrogance is a put off to all who enjoy this hobby for the pleasure of it. At least "Railroading Brit" had the HINDSITE to realize he had made a mistake and the COURTESY to appologize. You obviously don't have either. You won't have to worry about a future invitation from me, to anything. It won't ever happen. As for DOUGAL, he's welcome to come back over there anytime, there's no hard fellings over yesterday. It was probably bound to happen anyway. All friends have a blowup once in great while. It's what you afterwards that really counts. Hope to see you over on the other side DOUGAL. Guys, if you really know who got this started, it's the EIGHTBALL that I responed to above. Dougal just got caught in the x-fire. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. As I said above, I feel sorry for anyone who is that narrow minded and can't enjoy this hobby for the fun of it. Life is too D@%& short, not to have some fun. DOUGAL is a good kid and as I said above, there's no hard feelings over yesterday. I really think there was a lot of hostility pinned up in a lot of people yesterday just waiting for a catylist to bring it out. A lot of hurtful things were said yesterday and I believe it's time to put it behind us. Don't be like RDA1964. If everyone really wants to put "DOS" and "NEVER ENDING STORY" to bed, then lets do it and get past this,,,NOW. We don't need BERGIE getting in here, trying to sort this out. We can police ourselves. DEAL.........
