    Welcome back. I have been happy here. So far i have not noticed any trouble makers. It can be hard to keep up though sometimes. But it's a busy site.

    Tim, I'm glad to see you back! Too many of the long-timers here getting gone....and when that happens, the knowledge goes with them. I, for one, surely hope you stick around!!

    Glad you’re back! I miss that part of the world. Had lots of good times there. Right up to that storm.

    been here since the start and cant say ive seen it ever get better the the original bunch. that said its one of the least lenient fourms ive posted on when it comes to allowing conflicts. I cant imagine a post getting so carried away that I had to leave before someone got banned. Glad to see you back though.

    It's like anything else. You get out of it what you put into it. Still a great place to learn. The constant back and forth takes away from the site. I have never seen a reason why I would have to get upset over anything said. I can just ignore or choose not to post. Welcome back.

    Welcome back. And a big "yep" to all of the above! Sometimes I get aggravated by things, but I just sort of decided to accept this site does not belong to me so, take a deep breath and relax, mutter to myself,and keep on------

    Welcome Back! It seems like this site has less conflict than most although there are a few that are hard to take. Just remember "its just da internet"!

    I find that long breaks from even reading the pit can go a long way toward enhancing ones enjoyment of the site. But I attribute that to my lack of ability to read political stuff and not comment on it. Lots of new and interesting stuff in reloading and casting going on it will be good to have you back in the mix contributing to the knowledge base of the community.
    Scrap.... because all the really pithy and emphatic four letter words were taken and we had to describe this source of casting material somehow so we added an "S" to what non casters and wives call what we collect.

    Kind of hard to claim to love America while one is hating half the Americans that disagree with you. One nation indivisible requires work.

    Glad you’re back, Tim. Been a spell for sure. As far as conflict, like previously said, I just shake my head, and move on! Great place to learn.
    I firmly believe that you should only get treated by how you act, not by who or what you are!!

    Personally, I have been here for some 14 years.
    I have to give the mods credit for keeping the site under control....I even suffered the wrath of the mods at one point....but I learned my lesson.
    The troublemakers are deleted and banned quickly.
    Just stay out of the pit....all it does is piss people off.
    I think it is better than ever now.

    Thanks for the fine welcome. I hope I have something to contribute, I only know how we used to cast and reload, not up on new stuff.
