What is the deal with the "infractions" on here?

[Junior_357]

Sheesh...this is two whining threads about getting infractions today. I don't get it. Read the rules, abide by the rules, and we'll all get along just fine - even with high prices, bad deals and religious/political/social differences. Buck the system...get an infraction. Buck it some more...get a time-out. Seems fair since we ALL have to play by the same rules. Like them or not...when you signed up for a member account here - you agreed to abide by the rules. Whether you chose to read them or not...you still agreed to them by default.

As to high prices for anything...a given item's value is what TWO people agree it to be. If I sell pay $125 for a lower, and then price it at $300 - and someone agrees that it is worth $300, then it's value is now $300. The buyer gets what he wants for his money...I make a profit. It's called capitalism...get used to it. If no one agrees that it is worth that price...then guess what - it's not worth that price. Until someone agrees with the seller...it's not worth anything. So if you don't agree with a price...just move on, man. But bash someone's pricing in an open forum...be prepared to receive what's coming to you for breaking the rules.

But heck...if you can't keep your mouth shut about pricing in accordance with the rules, then no one should be surprised when you whine about getting an infraction for it. As a good older friend of mine used to have posted on the wall in his restaurant: EVEN A FISH WOULD NOT GET IN TROUBLE IF HE JUST KEPT HIS MOUTH SHUT.

And we are up to full speed. Hold on folks!

Who ****ing cares how much some one wants for anything. Capitalism is fantastic. If its not priced right it won't sell. If it does sell then the buyer who over paid was either desperate for the item or a idiot.

Life goes on.

Its not a blocked word.

Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..
Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..
Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..Asshole..

I think it remains unblocked because it is one of Okuma's primary vocabulary words...

So far I only hear bigots and whiney *****es. But, that's the norm in this type of environment. Who cares what people tattoo on their body. Everyone is a god in their own world. If you can get someone to pay it, take it. Jesus and Paul were lovers.

I got a Stag Model 3 BNIB. First $2000 gets it.

Its fun to laugh at the dumb threads. You damned if you do and damned if you don't. You can't control other people's money or spending habits.

PM sent with .22lr ammo trade offer

I've been a member of numerous internet forums, many of which I joined almost 10 years ago. I have NEVER EVER seen a place that will give "infractions" like we are children. We are so for the 2nd amendment on here, what about the FIRST?? (Yes I said the previous sentence in my post in the "private moderator forum")

For a little bit of back story, I made a joke about Remington Golden Bullet .22LR being made of actual gold (since the owner was selling them for over .16/round).

I'm not calling out any mods for the record.


Is this even the "right" forum for this thread? I don't want to get in trouble again...

Rules or consequences about that simple. You may enjoy pissing off "the man" but it wont end well. Why not just enjoy the parts you like? You got good feedback

The problem seems to come back to one thing...People think the Bill of Rights applies here. This is private property. If you want to exercise your right to free speech, find a srteet corner. And good luck not getting locked up unless you pay for a permit to speek freely THERE. This is the house that Steve built. He owns it and lets us come visit to meet and chat and deal with each other. But you don't go into someone elses home and piss in his sink and then be surprised when there are some sort of consequenses for it.

And if a damn infraction hurts your itty bitty feelings sooooo bad, maybe you shouldn't be armed in the real world. More like boy in a pastic bubble pampered, y'know? Hell, Bossman already went to great lengths to make sure the first notice of rules violation is termed a "Friendly reminder" as it is. Talk about a buncha mamby pambies. We oughtta issue tissues with every warning.
