Hey 4884Bigboy, I did not call Dougal an UP, some else called him a [censored] on
the other topic, and you know I replaced the middle part in my signature beacause of all the anti UP stuff going around lately .
You could not offended ME by calling me an UP but there might be some around!
btw, you allready read all what was going last night so that so leaves me only this:

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.

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.........

what have you all been up to when I was asleep?
[4:-)][4:-)] Some of you had a nice digital barbeque [V] [V] on the Help us Beat FSM in the Prototype Information for the modeler section
must have made a great impression on the guys usually posting overthere!

remember the ancient Dutch wisdom:

" He who burned his bum has to sit on the blisters"

[dinner][dinner]Couldn't you have the barbeque overhere on this topic, would have been great for the reply count ( I saw about 4 - 5 pages worth of replies!)
even back at the DOS topic some where so aggrevated [banghead]
that they even forgot to count,
well all sleep over it, and be nice to eachother
and remember today is sunday[angel]

emeraldisle, it wasn't a big show but we have no LHS nearby so it is the best I expect in this area. I picked up a BN F7, a UP SD40-2, 3 UP cabooses, a power pack, some switches, a trucking transfer kit, some military equipment, and some other assortet UP, BN and MEC equipment ,all and all a good day[:D][:D][:D] 518

I FIGURE THE FACT OF THIS THREAD IS ONLY TO BOOST
YOUR STAR COUNT, WHICH IS SILLY, RIGHT ???
The stars really have no meaning,so who really cares?
In time this thread will fade and HOPEFULLY get locked.
Maybe we should contact RIPLEY'S or GUINESS and see
if this is a record yet ??? I HIGHLY DOUBT IT. As much as I am
here to learn and have fun, this does make 527. WHAT IS THE
RECORD YOU ARE TRYING TO BREAK ANYWAY ???

and when the workforce arrives I shout:
MOAGHUJ! and that is my local Dutch, but we would actually need sound to get across how that sound,

btw: I travelled most states in the south of the USA, and I remember those accents, but never been to BHaston.
