and that probably ain't much.

I support my moderators 110%.

Dennis G told me years ago that you will receive complaints from a group of people that say you are too uptight or conservative on your site.
Then you will receive complaints that you are too liberal and are running a "soft porn" site.

He said when you get complaints from both sides, you know you are doing it right.

This site was built on, and made what it is today to a great degree, by debates.
Intelligent, well thought out debates.
No name calling was needed and when it happened it was dealt with.
There is nothing different today than it was back then except maybe a few players in the game.

Tndeer was built as a place to learn about deer hunting and then when the talk forum came about you could talk about it and oh did everyone EVER talk about it.
Fight like vols and crimson tides, but in the end it was clean and respectful.
When it wasn't a moderator took care of the issue.
No different today.

In this politically correct world we live in EVERYONE seems to be offended by something.
That is fine, whatever, I don't care.

I know a few things though.
Tndeer is and WILL BE FOREVER a family friendly site.
Talk about pretty much anything you want, but do so in a civil manner or it will be deleted.
You can call that whatever you want, but that is the way it is and that is the way it will be.

You got a beef, pm me and we will work it out to the best of my ability but in the end, if the ownership of tndeer doesn't think it needs to be on here, it won't be.

You want to be a moderator, shoot me a pm and we will talk about it but I promise you, VERY few can do that job and do it well and still enjoy tndeer.
The moderators that are in place are there for a reason and it will take quite a bit to prove to me that we were wrong in our decision making on that aspect.

If this comes off as prickish, fine, sorry about that because that is NOT what it is intended to do.
If it comes off as offensive and you don't want to post here, sorry because that is not what it is intended to do.

If it comes off as someone just saying that you keep it civil and it will stay, if you don't it won't, then you got what I was saying.

Have a blessed day.
 
I also must have missed something. I would not want to be a moderator on any site. You guys do a great job with the site. If I ever offend somebody you shoot me a pm and I'll make sure it's squashed. I will say that everybody takes things online more serious than they need to at times.
 
Good post RUGER. I am not an admin, but I have been around here since TnDeer was in it's infant stages and I agree wholeheartedly with what was posted above. This is the BEST campfire on the net, let's keep it that way. I love debates and I have learned enough on TnDeer that I can never repay it, but we must keep it clean, civil, and informative.

Be quite Eric, be vewy, vewy, quite. Weah huntin' wabbits. :D

Thank you for my laugh of the day.

I've NEVER seen someone take the ribbing that Eric has on that one is such a good natured way. It shows a lot about him.

Not to high jack but I have heard hints about this said rabbit for years but never have heard what actually happened

You have to hear it from Eric. I remember reading his post(s) many moons ago about how everything unfolded that day and the events that followed. I was dying laughing as I was reading it. The words he used that day were hilarious to say the least, and his stand up attitude with the events that followed really made the whole story one for the books. Fire away Eric, bring everyone up to speed about that everlasting day with the "wabbit". :D

I'm not sure which was better...the rabbit post or the Fireball post. Whenever I hear this song I think about Eric's Fireball-induced bender and crack up...probably because I can relate. :rotf:

I have learned alot today.

This was brought about because of a few people disagreeing with the moderation style of a moderator.
I have since learned it is a group of "friends" that are set out to replace tndeer.
Same story, different group.

This is over.
Make a comment, I dare you.
I will delete your account and you can piss up a rope.

Bring it girls, I have played this game before and I promise you, I will win.
I know who you are and you are specifically trying to cause financial harm to TnDeer Inc. and it won't be tolerated.
Do not pm me, you are not my friends. You are going after one of the things I love in life and I will fight you and I will win.

You know who you are.

99.99999999999999999999999999% of tndeer should ignore this post by me.
The 3 or 4 know who they are and PLEASE believe I am joking.

Bring it.
