One last giveaway:

I give you my thanks for a real fun ride, I appreciate the support, and education I have gotten but its apparant now is the time to move on. I have found another board where the "intensity" is not so high and think I will hang out there for a spell.

That being said, I think I am gonna take a little vacation from these boards. Dont know how long, but for a spell.

The giveaway I am currently having I will e-mail the winner.

The one I am handling for an annomous member I will do whatever is necessary to ensure its successful completion(even posting about it if necessary).

Other than that, no more posts here on General Discussion and no more giveaways.

Just like family, I need to get away from you folks for a while.

I have too much stress at home and on the job to take any more crap here.

Its been fun, some of yall have my e-mail and can drop me a line if you feel like it.

7mmnut, I will get the hunting trip dates worked out with you.

Powder, see you in a few weeks

jjmitchell60 - stay in touch

DWS, its been educational

Bambi, thanks

Elect1mike, try to stay home for a while


The rest of you good people play nice and share your toys


JuJu (Adios)

    In my opinion some of you are getting way too excited. This is a only internet site although good one on most days.

    juju,I believe you need to count to ten and relax,it will get better.
    If you do leave,you will be missed.

    Just as I'm starting to figure out some of you guys...you up and leave :-( I'm new here, so forgive my ignorance, but what exactly brought this on. You seemed glad to be here the other day, with your "giveaway" posts...I think I'm lost. Hope to see you back soon.

    I found it...your reasons. I wouldn't let that stuff make you leave! You cannot let that kind of stuff bother you. The only reason that I did not know what was going on was b/c I just ignore threads that I am not interested in. I saw 270's post when he first made it, and I thought it was kind of lame too...so I just left it at that and did not re-visit it. I understand your point and I agree with it...some don't and won't...but please don't let that stop you from being an active member here. Just my .02[:)]

    THE BACK STORY:

    There was a not-funny "gotcha" joke thread about a giveaway. Juju, who is currently running a giveaway, asked whether the joker was just kidding, or trying to criticize the good works of the fun-loving, generous givers.

    The joker responded, in short, "no, he was trying to be funny." Several posters said that while they weren't very appreciative or amused to be drawn to a fake giveaway thread, they weren't upset about the attempt at humor.

    Then one of the poster's apparent relatives jumped in to defend the original poster with the rather righteous news (to me at least) that it was "just a 16-year-old kid," and how could you treat him so bad?

    Now, I like everyone involved just fine, but I have to ask, if the joke wasn't very funny, the poster admitted as much, and no one but Kreskin could have divined that the poster's ID masked "just a 16-year-old kid," why does juju have to find himself on the defensive for asking what the intention was?

    This is what I would call an escalated misunderstanding with the wrong people taking the high ground, and I don't think anyone deserves to have his feelings hurt over a "joke" that the concensus agreed should move the humorist to keep his day job.

    juju, if you go, have a nice rest. See you back here sooner.

    I will drop you an e-mail soon. I know that sometimes we all need a break but let it just be that, a short break. Take some time to think and as you know not all can have the same ideas or opinions. Many if not all of us disagree some on this board as to one thing or another but do not let it be the reason that you quit posting. You as well as everyone else on this board has a lot to contribute to the discussions. I came into the situation running blind this mourning so I will not comment as to it. I think that sometimes we all need to sit back and think or focus on something else now and again. I hope to see you back soon. I will keep in touch and you do the same. Take care friend.

    God protect me from my friends, I can take care of my enemies...

    Hey Juju,
    I don't know you from Adam but I thought you were just a real nice fellow to hold the little giveaways.
    Never entered any but it was a nice gesture.
    Nobody pays your bills around here either so don't get your feelings hurt by a careless word or even a deliberate word.

    Varied opinions and ideas are what keeps progress moving forward. Throw yourself a good three day drunk and come on back.

    (Alcohol and guns don't mix)

    You are your own best teacher. My advice is to question all things. Seek for answers, and when you find what seems to be an answer, question that too. L'Amour

    juju - take a rest and relax a bit and come back a bit down the road.

    This place like every other place on the internet has it's ups and downs. Don't let the down parts get to you because it's just not worth it.

    Take care.

    juju, the real nice thing about this forum is the variety of opinions. If only one opinion (other than our affiliation with guns) were to dominate, it would get boring enough that all would leave. I don't really know you, but I believe you bring a perspective to this forum that makes everyone think a little more about the subjects. I might not agree with your ideas, but because I'm new to this forum, I believe I will loose a bit of knowledge by not haveing your input and perspective. I hope your sabatical is a short one. [8D]

    Juju,

    Blow it off, it's water under the bridge. Like I posted earlier for David Nunn....

    "If I were to try to read, much less answer, all the attacks made on me, this shop might as well be closed for any other business. I do the very best I know how, the very best I can, and I mean to keep doing so until the end. If the end brings me out all right, what is said against me won't amount to anything. If the end brings me out wrong, ten angels swearing I was right would make no difference." - Abraham Lincoln


    NSDQ!

    "To every man, there comes in his lifetime, that special moment when he is figuratively tapped on the shoulder and offered a chance to do a very special thing, unique to him and fitted to his talents;What a tragedy if that moment should find him unprepared or unqualified for the work which would be his finest hour." --Sir Winston Churchill--

    Juju,
    If you take the time to point out to an idiot that they're an idiot, you'll always get another idiot coming to the first idiot's defense.
    Of course, 60% of the american public are idiots and the biggest idiots are usually the ones that want to tell the rest of us idiots how to behave.
    They obviously stand on much higher moral ground.
    It's a time honored tradition here at Gunbroker.
    Well, it has been for the last couple of years anyhow.

    I can understand, I have another forum I go camp on every now and then. Sometimes this place gets to be a little much. When that happens you just gotta take a break. Please do come back because there are those of us that will miss you.
