 Since you don't know about your little buddy milwaukee I'll give you a pass on that last post.....as for ''hassling'' him??    I'm not hasseling him in the least, but today, when the rest of the members see what hes been doing....he will undoubtedly get a full force backlash!    and I'm just gonna watch and laugh!!

Leave him alone ld. He's had a tough journey so far, so give him some damn slack! You keep hassling him. Why? Does it make you feel good about yourself?

Do you think he'll be a better modeler?

That was a painful joke. If he has problems he will handle it accordinly WITHOUT your "wise" comments. That's like me posting a bulletin saying how my Mom has died and you saying, "I hope she's not allergic to wood!" You, my friend, are the immature one.

Say I'm mean, but you better watch yourself.

You're right SV...I know NOTHING about PROZAC, because I don't need stuff like that.

I'm a  reasonably well adjusted member of society,  I can carry on a normal conversation and don't spend my entire day making up lies and living in a fantasy world, unlike some others who shall remain namelessWink [;)].

 And just in case you missed it....my last post is what is known as ''humor''. You know, making a joke?  Laugh [(-D]

 Perhaps you are not aware of the previous actions of the author of this thread. There is no ''fight'', there WAS a fight on the Bachmann boards and a smaller one here....but our young flamer was soundly and decidedly put in his place by numerous members here and elsewhere. This current tantrum is merely a way to try and stir up trouble, and now everyone here knows the true nature of this child and there won't be any ''fights'',  a lot of sarcasm and laughing surely!  but no fighting.

Laugh [(-D]WOW....I had no idea I wielded so much power!! I got someone BANNED from Bachmanns boards?????? Man!!!  where do I get my sash and golden septre???  Laugh [(-D]

 There is no flame war......if you notice I haven't addressed any remarks to upwhatever......no need to, he digs his own holes and climbs right in!!Laugh [(-D]

  R.T. has already seen through this latest lie about the family situation...and those of you unfamiliar with up's M.O. will most likely get treated to some truly awesome fairy tales sometime soon!

UPChuck,

The key here is to never give your adversaries any ammunition to shoot you with.  If you remove their ammunition, their shots (words) become hollow.

And don't be quick to blame others for things that you probably had some part or responsibility in yourself.  The truth is that if you hadn't done or said certain things, my guess is that you would still be welcome on the Bachmann forum.  Am I right?  Part of growing up is to take responsibility for what you've done (past actions) and do have control over (present and future actions).

Lastly, don't be surprised if your adversaries still come back and rag on you from time to time.  As long as you remain truthful, a man of your word, and don't lash back, your critics will eventually run out of things to criticise you for.

It's time to take the high road, bud.

unionpacificchuck, your story is coming unglued; I seem to recall one of your posts of five or six weeks ago - it was about the time of the Marx train fiasco - when you mentioned that your pappy had bought something for you.  You had a Big Boy on order but now you tell us that you donate the money you make from your job to charitible organizations - which is commendable but it does raise the question as to just how you were going to pay for this Big Boy which you had on order.

I'm not going to do a search for it but I believe you inquired awhile back about modelers in the St Louis area.  There are a lot of modelers in the St Louis area.  I went to the national convention there in 2001 and I went on three tours and saw a dozen or more layouts.  I'll bet there were seventy or eighty layouts available to be toured.  St Louis hosts regional conventions frequently.  You need to hang around that hobby shop you claim to have to walk five miles to and meet some of these modelers.  Maybe one of them could become somewhat akin to a Big Brother to you.  One of the best way to learn model railroading is to look over someones shoulder . . . . . . . . . . AND KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT WHILE YOU ARE DOING IT!!!!!

I'm sorry you're having such a tough time at such a young age, but lashing out and alienating people is not the way to cope. It's hard to tell from this side of my keyboard whether you're more victim or bully, but you certainly seem to have a talent for verbal abuse online. We are not your father, so don't lash out at us like we are. If you calm down and use this forum for the resource that it is, and treat the forum members with common courtesy, you might find yourself forming actual bonds with some older (and hopefully wiser) guys, which is important for a young guy in your circumstance. If you're being as severely bullied as you said, then your Mom and the school board should know - they're taking these problems more seriously, since the problem seems to be so out of hand these days. But if you continue to act the way you have here on the forum, it will be very hard for anyone to take your claims seriously.

Kids can be jerks, but if you approach people differently, you might be surprised at how you're treated. And getting involved in some kind of sport is a great way to channel your anger, form friendships, and get stronger to boot. Think about it.

LD357, you seem to be trying to restart the flame war. Not cool.

Thankyou steam freak thankyou.

 Boy I am not sure where to start on this one. I do not know much about your pass on this site Chuck. But it seems you have burnt some tressle's behinde you. Far as the starting of this post  you started it wrong others remembered your pass and it started.

 I don't know how old you are or what your family life is like. I am guessing you are betten 11 and 15 doest not matter just a guess. When I was in that age range I as well strached things to get attation (spell check) I was rasied by Mon, dad skipped out when I was born. You would not beleive the BS that spilled out of my mouth. I had this, I had that, he was my Great Grand Father etc. Only thing driffrent is you have the internet I did not.

 I had no male role model either so I had no idea how to stand up for my self. You want to talk about being bullied. (spell check again) In 7th grade there was Jeff Sigman, on the way to the bus to go home in the hall way he would punch me (held back 2 years and he could drive I will add)  and I had no idea what to do.

 Then there is my Dad, he married my Mon when I was around 12 I think. No matter what I did it was never as good as him. I joined the Boy Scouts, I made Heart but he was a Eagle scout. I made C's he made A's and on and on it went.

 There is a old saying "what does not kill you makes you stronger" and it did make me stronger. If or when we meet you would never think I was ever bullied. In fact it hard for me to beleive as well. I did finaly bested my Dad in about everthing in adult life. It did give a warm feeling inside but I never bosted about it to Dad. Did not have to, he knew and he all so knew he made me do it.

 If you want to talk PM me your phone number. At my age I still remember when I was young and needed to vent. All so felt like a out cast with no friends. Even now with the hours I work I have more no faces friends on the internet that breathing people. My car friends dissappred when I went the way of the trains. I know longer run a Auto Body Shop as well.

 As far as Jeff Sigman, he got paid back!Big Smile [:D] He got kicked out of school the next year. Fast forward to around 1974.  I had just came out of Airborn Training and was on leave. Visting a friend that worked at all places "MR. Chicken". While I was talking with Allen one of Jeff's friends came in and saw me. He ran out side and I heard him yell "Jeff that (starts with a P and is a CAT) Greenwell his here, kick his but" Jeff walked in and said "where is that P Greenwell"! Hum, time had changed me into at 6'3 and 220 pounds of lean mean fighting machine. Jeff on the other hand was still 5'9 and 150 pounds soaking wet. I just turn around and looked at him and said "Hi Jeff, you looking for me"? "Well, yes I just want to say Hi" turned around and left.

 Chuck till you give me a reason to think driffrent you still have one friend here. I would all so maybe start the post over and made a UP question game not make you all look bad.

 It not what we think of you, but what you think of your self that counts and that will come with time.

          Your Friend Cuda Ken

 PS, maybe we adults need to get over it as well.

I hate Rust

Chuck..should think before making posts on this. I mean no offense but you should put on your fire suit before making threads like these because you will get flamed. I don't like to but others do like to flame. I do not like that but it is still your fault mostly for starting topics like these calling people out.

You know nothing about Prozac. That is a powerful medicine and it can hurt people.

The best way to live free and strong is to NOT depend on drugs, medicines or feel good stuff.

Dont be so negative either.

Sometimes it takes a strong person to walk away from a fight. Other times well.. have at it. I dont think this is the time to fight. Walk away. Let it be.

Young Master, when I was 13 there was no internet. Any trains were run in front of friends and friends of friends who may never have seen trains before. Any problems with these trains usually resulted in teasing. Sometimes other people reveal their interest in trains and bring thiers to run. At that time in my life, I only had two anywhere near my age who showed interest in running trains. Cheap train set stuff too.

Today, there is the internet. When you type here or anywhere, you are literally broadcasting to the world and stamping your words forever. As long there is a internet in a free land 10 years, 50 years or 500 years your words stand.

Today society is a little bit more "Fast and loose" than my generation was and even my father's time. Each generation grew up with thier own issues and challenges of the time. Your generation is possibly the first time that young folks can get on line and communicate and learn or teach others. This probably never has been done before.

Now. If you take a few days break and come here and say that you feel badly for behaving or otherwise breaking forum rules on language and perhaps suffering problems with me or other forum members then take a break but dont quit.

If I saw another trucker on the highway, that trucker and I understand each other. I can run with him or her as hard as they can stand and as long they dont quit we get it done.

But here. We have a great age difference. It makes a little bit more difficult to understand how to be more careful or perhaps more gentle in communciation. 13 years of old is a great age. But the next 10 years of your life is going to be either awesome (It should be) or hell. There is no one here that can help you with that.

Now regarding trains. Put them away, take a break from the computer, get outside with your friends and participate in games etc. you will find that the down time is a chance to heal and feel better and perhaps stronger for the next problem.

To write these types of challenge threads is going to get you very wet. You dont want to obey a call of nature in a strong wind and Im sorry, but the internet is like the strongest wind there is and you will get soaked.

These forums have a Moderator, a very wise person who is not afraid to mete out punishment. If I broke a rule I will be sent to punishment. To the moderator I am just another problem that can easily be taught with a warning or tossed out by a ban if I did something bad on these forums. I have been punished before and some of us more than others.

If you want to show strength, do it with patience, peace and understanding. Not by direct conflict or challenges because you might not like the results. You may not care to read any of this stuff that I wrote here but Im sure that somewhere there is a person who likes to run trains and that is what it should be all about.

Playing with trains and having fun, not picking fights you cannot win.
