There’s a lot of smack talk here but by and large this place has so many good men. Through the PM system there’s a lot of compassion and caring men that reach out to converse without the drama of the open forum.
I’ve certainly had my dust ups through the years but it’s tempered over time by the outpouring of support and words of encouragement. There’s very, very men here that I wouldn’t be pleased to meet in person. That includes guys I’ve been spitting mad at times but the reality is that there’s so many good guys here and we all are prone to be asses at times myself included.
Wow! Now I feel like a “horses arse” for my comment made earlier! But, if taking this thread seriously.....you my friend have made it clear that there are many good men that frequent here! And I share your sentiments concerning meeting and spending some time with those good men! memtb

Because a lot of us are seniors. We are not too happy about growing old so itdoesn't take a lot to pi$$ us off
I resemble that! 🤠
I’m only 58, but I’m getting there. 😬

Hey, you piss on people with any brains..... and you expect them not to get angry?
Meanwhile all the blacks in this nation seem to think, it is their God Given right to be pissed at anyone who is white, strictly for their skin color....they don't need a reason... they are just convinced they are a never ending victim of society, and anyone who is white has a never ending debt to repay them, for their hurt feelings....
I can offer a two opinion on that...
Screw'em.....
they have as much opportunity as anyone else... and in fact they get preferential treatment in a million ways...
democRATs have taught them to be social crybabies instead of men...

Thanks Beaver10 I appreciate the kind words. I believe there’s a bit of a learning curve to online forums, especially high quality ones like the campfire where RicBin allows us to self monitor. He’s a bit of an enigma in the online forum world and I appreciate his hands off approach. I’ve been a member of several forums over the years and slowly found them unsuitable to my tastes. The campfire is the only one that I regularly read and participate in because there really are more good men here than any other forum I’ve been a part of.
The incredible wealth of information is astounding and the knowledge here is incomparable to any other forum. Most questions will be answered freely and truthfully by men with the experience and expertise to do so. Of course there will be the bullshit artists and attention whores with nothing to add to the discussion but it’s easier to ignore their posts and focus on those that are genuine in their response.
It’s easy to sign up with a chip on your shoulder so that one can “set the [bleep]” straight. Over time and as we get to “know” each other better we realize that many of the “[bleep]” have the same general views as ourselves and that they’re generally pretty decent guys. I think the hardest part of the learning curve,and one that some will never be able to master, is not responding to every post or poster that gets under your skin. It creates a chain reaction that often doesn’t work out like we thought it would.....ask me how I know. 😂

You may think that the members here are more angry then other forums, but you would be mistaken.
The difference here is not the members, but the forum administrator, Rick.
Unlike any other forum I have visited, he has allowed his members to speak freely. No, banning for name calling, no warnings for swearing, just real people speaking as if they were talking to your face without restrictions on one's choice of words..
Nothing real about it. I've never been spoken to my face the way I've been spoken to on here.
