I just left the marlin fireams site, where I attempted to register to enter into one of their forums.

I attempted to enter using my normal screen name of classic095.

What a shock I got when it was rejected because it contained a word not acceptable to them Guess What is is, yep your right (*)

But guess what appeared right below that, Wholy cow!!!!! please enter your P(*)WORD.

What is this world comming to.. HEEEEEEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLPPPPPPPP

    Read the thread on political correctness. Then you will understand. Or won't understand. Or you will understand why you don't understand.
    Or some or all the above.

    Classic: I didn't know about that stupid rule! Don't give up on that site though, you will get VERY good info from the guys there.

    That's not the only glitch. I went and registered to use their forum. Instead of them letting me make up my own password they e-mail me mine. However when I have tried to post a topic I keep getting an incorrect password. What's up with that? Also, I noticed that Marlin doesn't have a feedback or question's(for the company) area that is available to e-mail them.

    The marlin site is 1 of united forums new sites and they aren't perfect. They are still working out the bugs. If you want to hear real censorship, goto 1911.com and you will see only low profile mundane posts with very little interesting facts. If someone posts something there that goes against the flow or some stupid monitor doesn't like what is said or what is written about the poof it goes. I told them screw you and left and never returned after I had some of my posts deleted after I doled out some harsh truth about their subject. I don't really care about that other site because this site is more friendly and helpfull and there isn't a bunch of dummies dispersing incorrect information. Another quality site ( IMHO ) is ez-boards the firearms forum.
