First off, let me say that I have in the past refrained from posting even in response to people that have been complete A-Holes. I believe in handling such disagreements in private rather than wasting resources and time in public. However, on this particular day, for whatever reason, I have found a new motivation to respond to each one...
This post goes out to you Gunslinger, since you seem to crave the attention. I will respond to your comments pesonally.
In response to your own subject question "Do YOU Have Time to Wait for Threads to Load?" you posted:

I don't.

Very well written, you cover your main point in the first sentence; getting to the point without wasting a lot of our time. Had you stopped right there, you would have stated your case, and acted accordingly to make your point. We would all miss you terribly but would get on with our lives eventually.
However, you continued:
[a bunch of stuff deleted, but eventually...]
Another rocket scientist said he had never owned or operated a discussion board and asked if I had. *sigh* This after I had already said in my opening post that I do in fact own an Internet firearms discussion board. [...more deleted...] The site is [b]not working![/b] Period. When a person has to wait for several minutes to get a thread to open....if the damn thing isn't timed out they are lucky!

Congrats- you recognized that the site is not working correctly. Very keen observation, and we thank you for bringing it to our attention. We would be working on a faster solution, but instead need to take the time out of doing that to respond to people like yourself so that you don't feel unappreciated.
Yes, this is a rant. Yes, I [b]know[/b] what it is like trying to keep a site up and running. And if mine ran like this POS I'd take it off the Internet and cut my wrist with a dull freakin' knife.

Christ, when will someone else just decide it is not worth the effort to try to get on and post?!?!?!?!?!

In case you are "another example of someone that for some inexplicable reason can type and write but reading eludes them" I will clarify something that others have written and alluded to:
I think I speak for the majority here when I say that most of us are just wondering when [b]you[/b] will decide it's not worth the effort and stop posting.
So go hang out at your firearms site, and when you get bored, you'll be welcomed back here I'm sure. Until then, don't "let the door hit you in the ass!"
