NorCal came hunting and he got a little ribbing and nuked 3 guys. We had no idea the internet was flammable. |

We would prefer that, over rowdy cowboys burning the place down. Laaaaaaaaaaaame. The hell is going on in here? Can someone link me to whatever the fuck happened now? Or did it get nuked? (ETA: Found it ) Can't leave you guys alone for two weeks. |

There have been a few members that had decided to start poking the bear recently. They brought this attention on themselves.
I recently told one of them that our patience had run out, and that they should stop. He and the others chose to ignore that advice and they've had their accounts locked. Here is a bit of advice for those watching from the sidelines. When these HTF uprising happen, it causes the rest of the Staff to focus on that particular forum. These guys don't normally deal with the HTFs, and they take a no prisoners attitude until things settle down. This can lead to others getting caught up in the ruckus. Please don't try poking the bear any further, because you may end up getting mauled. ETA: Please feel free to ask any honest questions you may have, and I will try to answer them. |

View Quote Can you please list who was locked? Also are these locks permanent or temporary? |

I'm not going to list any names, but all account locks were set to permanent. That doesn't mean that the problem can't be resolved, just that the account has to be manually unlocked. It will be up to those members and the Staff that locked them to work out any differences.

It's a bummer, because most of those guys are really active shooters and avid second amendment supporters. All this time I thought that was what this was about. Ohh well I'm going back to guns. Hopefully the CT HTF is back to full strength soon. |

You guys are like sharks teeth One idiot falls another pops up to replace him Nope just thought it was funny I was the one making the joke here That's my point of this whole mess. It gets taken too seriously. You got 3 staffers patrolling the CTHTF now, for what? Cuz 1 guy in 300000 members keeps getting back in? And we make mild jokes about it? Meanwhile there's severe racial, mysoginistic or homophobic rhetoric in half the GD threads and it all slides? Never mind the purse swinging in the handgun forum about why HK or Glock sucks. It's not perfect I get it. There's a lot of cat herding going on and staff certainly has it's hands full. And as far as I can tell, compared to similar sites I frequent, Arfcom has the best structure and runs very efficiently. I guess sometimes I forget it's not an open society, and I need to reread the CoC. I assure you, and this goes out to staff too, the guys that took a hit recently had no clue their attempts at humor would cross a line. And as stated before, they are quality contributors with tech knowledge, political savvy, and just plain old good men. I know them personally both off and on the range. |

Heavy handed tactics over spilled milk. And I'm not wrong on that analogy. |

"So, that's how it is..." http://i.imgur.com/xf7rSWv.gif I can't tell you how often I hear liberals say the same thing, when it comes to the current state of our country. What is it they say? "If you hate it so much, then move." I typically live my life to not be a hypocrite. To not be one of those who expects people to behave a certain way, and then act that way myself. "Do as I say, but not as I do." How's Virginia these days? Turning rather blue, wouldn't you say? Lots of folks from above the Mason/Dixon line moving in, telling you how to live? Raising your taxes? Wanting more government and less capitalism? More and more rules and regulations and less and less personal freedoms? Sucks, huh? View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

God willing, come August, it's gonna have a little more red in it once the wife and I move down there. Fuck these blue state policies, if they want 'em, let 'em have 'em, but don't expect to be welcomed with open arms when they want to move where I am because I'll be paying fewer taxes and living freer. I'll gladly meet 'em at the border and tell 'em to ship their asses back to wherever they came from. |

Yeah, we're looking at the Albemarle County are ourselves.
Fuck this state. But we can't move until we sell the house. We need the money to move forward. And I'm very green on how to go about that, for renting until we find a place and moving with the voluminous amount of stuff we've got, etc. It's scary, when you have three kids and moving somewhere you have no established contacts. |

I'm well aware of what it's like to live in a shitty NE state. If VA eventually ends up like the rest of the shitty North East, I will then move to a state that meets my needs. In the meantime I'll keep doing what I can to prevent that from happening. I don't think any of that has anything to do with what is happening on this site. Unless you're trying to equate the mindset of fighting banning of firearms with banning of people from a website? |

I'm not going to bash anybody, but this entire thing is about control. Yes some guys got a little out of control and got band. So be it .
But the other night was just a knee jerk reaction to a some guys having a few laughs. This didn't happen out in the big public mess of GD where it caused a giant uproar. It happened in a thread burried in here. This was all about getting the chance to put down the hammer |
