A few wanted to comment on this but the thread was locked so I will put it here as well.


Since this has for the most part been posted before and after some thought I will put a few things out there.

First. Colorado ar-15 staff looks like this:

MARLIN
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
Everybody else

Every swinging dick on the staff is the same. For the most part colors for the staff just mean things they want to do but every staff member has the ability to ban/put in timeout or do anything to a member. Some of the staff have topics/forums that they take more interest in than others. Some things are done as a group and some are done as individuals.

We are not in the mood to rain on anyone's parade but when we do PM you about a concern please understand that we are human and shooters as well. Some things we do are for the good of the community. Some things we do are for the good of the board. some things we do are to protect you from yourself (yes we know you are not fond of that)

This is a private board and as such is under the control of the owner. We did not twist your arm to join nor did your neighbor sign you up for a subscription without you knowing about it. We do not send out a bill every month but we wish Marlin would so we could get paid for this.

So when we send you a message normally we are trying to nudge you by saying that the course your on may not be the best one. Of course outright stupidity is dealt with on another level.

This is just another PSA trying to help the members out. to put this in perspective replies to the staff that include:

FUCK YOU.

You need to apologize to me right now.

I have rights.

I can do whatever I want.

I will do whatever I want.

Ban me now because this place sucks.

I could give a shit about the rules.

I will sue you and own this place.

Hi. I don't understand why my son/husband/uncle was banned.

I will tell Marlin.

Remove me from your membership NOW.

Do not ever edit my posts.

I will get you.

This came in last night from someone in New Hampshire that wouldn't update their profile location after 2 attempts (just sharing some of the highlights)
Have no idea what this is all about but it's apparently nonsense from some apparently self important assholes with yet another pointless gun related web site.
Your WEB site is hollow and uninteresting and obviously shaping up as another Internet failure! And, I'm now banned until June 4th! Hey stupid. . . Nobody cares! . . .
In summary and I will place this in terms that even an ignorant fool from Colorado can understand . . . "Fuck-Off"! . .
As you can imagine, his 5 day ban is now permanent and I've blocked his whole IP subnet range so anyone else in his area of NH wanting to access the site can thank him for not getting to come share in the good times. -Ginsue
And others we have seen in the last couple of years generally do not get you anywhere. Just a thought.

And a new addition. "No need to be a prick about it. " that is a 7 day time out.

Just a thought.
