Is this a problem for Kim??

Over 3/4 of the posts and replies on this page are either from, in response to, or are about one trouble making troll. The actual tractor related posts are getting few replies, while we all(myself included)respond to a lunatic..

CJ is right on. The constant attacks on the Howells, and now JD are plain crap. I think alot of us jump to defend them as friends would do, but what are we really defending them from??
The rantings of a misguided fool with a religious legalism issue..


Can we all shake hands and agree to hit this problem head on with complete silence. No matter who is next on the hit list, just don t react. Carry on like we used to, tractor talk, some interesting OT stuff and whatever else. If this person posts just plain old ignore it.

If I had to run this site I would be real close to pulling the plug on the whole darned forum. Remember Kim does run a business, not good for business to have some potential parts buyer innocently poke in on tractor talk and get an eyeful of this stuff..

We need to close ranks and squeeze this problem out. I can t even begin to list all the neat folks, that contribute to this board, I might not agree with them all, but I do respect them.

As for Kim, I think if we stick together, we can take care of this problem without her having to lift a finger..

Maybe I m nuts, but I d rather hop online and check out what s going on in the tractor/farming world, then be part of an ongoing soap opera.. BW

Well said.

I also think all this soap opera stuff has driven away alot of the good people who have helped others which only hurts this site.

I agree!!

I agree to start the shun treatment. I tried my hand at with him but got no where. In his case silence is golden. If I was running the forum I'd be looking for a way to block his ip

Here, Here!

As hard as it is, we just need to ignore him. As they say, don't feed the troll..

The problem is you fellows keep making it a problem by responding.
NO BUDDY IS GOING TO CHANGE THEIR RELIGION.
NO BUDDY IS GOING YO CHANGE THEIR MIND.
As some one says..shun, shun, SHUN!
In other words, just every body, including me--
JUST SHUT UP!

I'll join in. No responses from me that have anything to do with this individual.

Only 1/4 of the posts are tractor related is a good thing. That means the site is soooo helpful that most problems have been fixed. When you check in and can't find a problem that you can help with you need to make small talk to show your here and care. Or complain that there is no problems you can help with. ^D

Good post.

We seem to have one on this board who could be described as "a rock in a shoe." The longer we walk along paying attention to the rock, the more we limp. The more we try to reason with the rock, the more we realize the rock isn't interested in reason - just in being a rock.

It's time to empty the shoe, and quit talking to the rock.

I was told one time,
"The squeaky wheel gets the most grease"
The down side, It is usually the first to get replaced.

I choose to not grease the wheel as to not keep it turning.

All the good "wheels" will keep this fine forum going.

BW,

Good post , I would like to see the silent
applied to the clown in question. I do have a
bit of a complaint with the management here,
it took several months for her to remove "The
real ron " and seems that this bout has been
going on for quite a while ,But when the ETD
was written it only lasted about 2 weeks and
then the skillet. I think there is a problem
with priorities,as there was absolutely
nothing in the etd writing that was offensive
to anyone and it was some of the best writting
on this board and was comparable the writting
in the 1950's in the saturday evening post
called the earthworm tractor company .

Don't see your name at the lead of many tractor related posts.Free entertainment means you can't be choosey.

Not quite sure what you re getting at.

I took the pledge awhile back. Lets everybody jump on the bandwagon.

They didn't remove the real Ron.

Who could you possibly... be referring to... annoy... annoy...hahahahaha...

I would agree. It is frustrating on this site sometimes when you ask a tractor related question and get very little help at times but some off topic posts go on and on.

This site is for tractors and related issues.

here are plenty of political sites out there where those so inclined can rant to their hearts content.

Politics.com and justplainpolitics.com are a couple.

WHY? Why is it that a few can spoil it for the rest of us. Kim can't change the poeple that are rude, stupid and just plain nasty
