    I was assuming the new format pushed his tolerance meter so far into the red that he sought out more productive environs.

    He still reads the forum but chooses to no longer post.

    He's online now......... Probably just reading stuff. Let's keep bumping him.

    What PC turn?  I must have missed it.  Too often, not necessarily in this post, anything someone disagrees with is labeled as PC when it's entirely something else.

    He means, not being allowed to act like an ass clown. 

    Would be my guess. 😉

    Wasnt  a PC turn. It was a MUCH needed reset from the political douchebaggery that had infected this forum. Every forum section turned into a republican dick waving contest.

    Oh, and the quote feature on here is definitely terrible now...but I press on.  Anyway, I hope we do see Teach back on here soon.

    Yep. Write your reply outside the quote box first, only THEN click inside the quote box if you're going to edit out impertinent content, or make a FIFY.

    I enjoyed Teach's comments as well, even the grumpy ones,.... maybe especially the grumpy ones.

    I don't think Ive read anyone's post that contained such an encyclopedic volume of practical and useable knowledge and experience as Teach's.

    Plenty of blame to go around. The idiom 'Pot calling the kettle black'  comes to mind from all sides, IMHO.

    Correct. EVERYONE was  to blame. But since there’s but one (admitted) Democrat, it was 99% a Republican dick waving competition. 
    He had plenty of his junk waving in the breeze too, and I don't see much change in his tone either.

    One comment from me, after which I will retreat to my self-imposed position of sitting in the corner, for posting anything that remotely resembles something that the lynch mob will always characterize as shilling for the Republican Party.

    Teach is a huge asset to this forum, for his hands-on experience at nearly anything mechanical and specifically for his self-taught gun smithing skills. The people who actually do know him obviously love him for being a loyal friend. His posts, ten or twelve years ago, along with several others, encouraged me to hang on here, despite the lack of kindness shown toward most new members, by many of the old members. Not being a very 'sensitive' person, myself, I don't usually get bent out of shape when people throw negative comments in my general direction, and I thought Teach had that one thing in common with me, if nothing else. So, I hope that he will throw in again, at least on the topics he has expertise with, but also on any other topic he chooses. He is missed.

    I wish Teach would come back. He's always got something going that is WAY interesting to a fellow TN redneck. And the jokes are always hilarious.

    FB land deserves it :D

    I don't have a FB page. People I know are always trying to get me to sign up. I can't understand why...... maybe, I'll look into it sometime.

    I don't do FB or any other social media besides here and a few other gun forums I infrequently post on.

    I don't get the fascination with all that other social media. I know it has a powerful hold on a lot of folks and they seem to stay deeply immersed in it.

    So y'all are pretty it for those I share my idiosyncrasies with. That could be a blessing or a curse, depending on how you look at it, I reckon.

    Like I tell my daughters, the world has seen enough of my butt without me hanging more of it out there on FB and the like.

    I have a much higher level of expectation as far as having a logical discussion with folks here that in Facebook.  But even in FB I have decided to stop all political and most social discussions or commentary.  It's like a lightning rod for stupidity and uncivilized reactions from the emotional driven wrecks that seem to be procreating at an alarming rate.
    I'm old, I'm cranky, and FB is a good outlet to stir the pot. I love the sight of Snowflakes melting in the morning! :D
