A few years back, I joined this forum. I had so much enthusiasm and anticipation.

I had plenty to say and just the right attitude to speak my mind.

I really enjoy putting my thoughts down, I am somewhat opinionated and I love deer hunting so I was in just the right place....... $;\)$

Being as bright eyed and bushy-tailed as I was, I came in here with guns a blazing and opinions flying. I replied to most everything that I read and I started many threads on a variety of topics.....

I guess that you could say that in my opinion, MY opinion was desired by others and needed on this forum.

I have something to say and by golly, you people are going to listen to me!!!!!!!

I have been on forums before, but not one with so much daily use and so many differences in opinions.

It was not long before I was called down and warned about MY opinions. Even though I have never started a thread to anger anyone, but only to debate the issue, some people didn't see it like that.

I spent plenty of time beating my head against the wall here simply because I had been labeled a troll and in some people's mind, I would forever carry that moniker.

That's why I spend little time on the general forum and quit worrying about what others here think of me.

I won't continue this post any further because I posted a similar thread a few days ago.

You get where I'm going, don't you..?

Whether you want them or not, I will give you my rules for posting on this forum...haha. JMO, of course...!

1) if you fall off the face of the Earth, this board WILL go on, so check your ego and attitude at the door.

2) there are enough different people here with differences in opinions that some and sometimes MOST of them will not agree with you, so if that bothers you , then refrain from posting anything debatable.

3) Most people here have one thing in common, we like to deer hunt. Other than that, many of us have little else in commmon. Always keep that in mind. It's not like you are debating a friend or a relative. You are debating people that you do not really know.

4) If you are having a bad day and are feeling confrontational, move along quickly. It's the best thing for all of us..if you read something that angers you, leave it and come back to it later (if you must)...most times you will see things abit differently later.

5) Some people here WANT to anger you. It's what they do. Figure out who they are and steer clear of them and when they post something against you then laugh it off and move along. ( i have my list posted on my monitor, haha.) If you response you have taken the bait. Nothing upsets a "fisherman" any worse than NO BITES!!!

6) very important.......in my case anyway, no one on here knows me well enough to judge me, my morals or my lifestyle. In return, I have no right to judge them. It took me a while to figure this one out, but since I have, posting here is alot more amusing .......

7) and lastly........THE SUN WILL COME UP TOMORROW.
