So that I don't have to see them.

Dean,
Help me out here.
There's an easy way for folks to get around irritating threads. Ignore them. Or, scan them and THEN ignore them.

Only the staff is required to read all the posts on all the threads. Other folks could skip what bothers them - but so many seem intent on reading what makes them angry and then griping all over the people involved.

My problem is, how do we tell people to "skip what upsets you" without sounding nasty or overbearing?

I haven't had much success in that area!
Any ideas???

We're REQUIRED to read all threads?

Oops!




Kidding! I read everything... almost...

Well I was mostly joking. I do pretty much ignore them.

Oh, and by the way, I prefer the .45 ACP over the 9mm, for obvious reasons.

Dean,

But of course you prefer the .45, as all of us "real" shooters do. That cute little 9mm round is only for play, practice, competition, little girls, tupperware parties, etc.

(INCOMING!!!)
