Originally posted by Dave View PostI think it goes back to the early days of TBH when a feeling of community was established and some, my self included didn't use screen names. When you know people personally and are not hiding behind an anonymous pseudonym it's a lot harder to be over the top and outrageous.
Then Michael and Casey among others started to enforce a set of guidelines that discouraged the kinds of things you are talking about. Michael has been very clear from the beginning this isn't a free forum and while we want everyone to participate we need everyone to follow a set of guidelines to keep things civil and friendly.

I've never heard of it. But I think people that talk trash over the internet are probably doing so because....they're on the internet. It's hard to get slapped through a computer screen. I don't portray myself to be something I'm not or say things any differently here than I would in person. Because......what's the point in doing that? I try to contribute as much as I can. I ain't disagreed with anyone to the point that I could tell you exactly who it is to be honest. I just hope nobody sees my screen name and thinks "What's this jerk have to say today?" Because I'm not that way in real life. That's not who I am in real life so I'm not gonna be that way here.

That and I don't want to get kicked so hard it chips my front teeth right before I cry and have to crawl on my belly for a week.Last edited by okrattler; 03-22-2018, 10:39 PM.

Well here's a pretty recent one. Here's a fun fact. There's not many pictures of me that exist for some reason or another. Probably because the only time anyone has an opportunity to take a picture of me a snake is involved. So they'd rather not.
Ok well now that I've derailed this thread with my awesome backwards hat.....I guess I'll go to sleep now.Last edited by okrattler; 03-22-2018, 11:24 PM.

I went to Bownanza this year and had a good time. Bownanza gave me a different perspective of people on here and I aint real sure how to post on here now. Reckon a fella that just types at a screen aint got no idea how bad or good his communication skills is, when you cant see them people you talking with. In my small mind, I think there is people that post on TBH to start problems and I am purty sure they would never go to Bownanza.
Heck, most of the people I met and hung out with at Bownanza, I want to take hunting or fishing now and aint got no desire to make them mad at me.
