How many have you deleted

I am deleting the fifth post this morning to keep from getting band again. I was wondering how many post y’all have deleted for same reason? I am having a hard time really stating my opinion on all the thugs taking advantage of the country and our police and no matter me seams to care. These are thugs

A lot lately. Just not worth it.

I'm up to a 50 50 ratio these days. I will make a post and instead of posting I just hit the back button and move on.

EDIT. and that's with a drastically lower posting rate than I've ever had

I hear ya'. I spent the early morning hours deleting about 100 or so waist down selfies I drunk posted on here last night.

I am past that phase now, I banned myself from the Bunker to stay out of trouble.


The ignore feature wasn't cutting it.


Hang in there 921P be glad you are not 25 years old and facing 50 plus more years of the insanity that is the USA/Earth

And we that you for that!
Deleting, I mean

no one doubts that about you...…

trust me

Thank you sir for your consideration.

Post only empty, no content thoughts and you won't have to go through those deleting exercises.

I may delete one in a thousand of my posts and I've only been banned once and that was for posting an image of someone shooting the bird. It was before there was a bunker and I was quite inflamed on a political posting. Most of the time I keep my emotions in check on here. Let's face it, most of y'all ain't worth getting emotional to.

But, I love ya man !

Free speech is dead.

I don't think that on this site at all, my problem is keeping my temper in check.


Some of these guys can seriously get under one's skin and that leads to wanting have a beat down on them. I have to practice some sort of self mind control to not let em bother me.

feng shwie or some S

I have stayed out of the Bunker for that same reason.

Don’t just post up every thought you have, think about it, temper it, say what you want without getting personal.

Self control.

I have deleted many of my own messages prior to hitting the post button.

Doing so has cut way back on the messages I get from the moderators. It has been a long time since I have been in tff jail. I plan to keep it that way.

Just make sure you don’t have the same phone as RATZ. I heard that without any approval from RATZ, his phone will just go off half-cocked and drunk PM stuff to people. I can’t confirm this information but will pass it on nonetheless.

I found a very simple way to handle all of my frustrations. I put them all in the Lord's hands. God gives me the peace beyond any understanding!


Side Note: The Lord Jesus Christ will be always in control. Pray for this country. God needs to BLESS THE USA!

I never delete anything I post. I'm not that emotional though.

None. I keep my emotions in check

Were you in Jail or prison?


I don't post many of the things I type up.

If you want, send it to me first via PM, I’ll give you my read on whether you should post it or not. I have excellent judgment and would be happy to help.

And please remember folks, buzzed posting is drunk posting.

I don't delete too many, most I just don't post after I read it.

Take a deep breath and walk away if you need to (we do it sometimes as well).
I try not to get worked up over things that I cannot control. Life is too short for that.

Well stated! Amen!

Most days I talk myself out of posting something....

I got sick of the Bassboatcentral owner always putting down America and Americans, I told him off and got banned. Worth it to me, if people don’t like this country and it’s history, they need to MOVE!

Delete no, retype a couple of time before hitting post reply, yes.

I used to get worked up about these things...not so much anymore. Nobody cares about my opinion about politics, and I can't blame them. Somehow I have not learned that nobody cares about my Cowboys opinions either, but that's hopefully coming soon...

Just the other day I deleted a post about how all of you are worthless morons who offer nothing positive to society.

But in the end I wisely chose to just keep it to myself.

Accept that there are un-intelligent people in the world. There are also highly educated and intellectual people with a surprising lack of practical understanding.

Easier said than done, but you should never let the fact that some other person is an idiot affect your mood or the outcome of your day.

none today, but I've done it a bunch

But people who mistake sell, and sale make me want to punch my computer screen.

Okay, I'll give you that one.

I could care less what you think.

I frequently type out a long ranting post, then delete it before ever posting it. I'd have to ban myself sometimes if I didn't self-filter what I post.

Have also had to give the same advice that Steve mentioned above to others. I try to follow it myself, but don't always succeed.

Many. Just get ready to hit the submit button and..... nope, better not. The chances of actually changing someone's mind to your thoughts or perception is like 0.000000012 %.

Touchey

Touchey, as in "show us on the doll" touchey?

AMEN

Adolf Al is on a rampage over there last 2 days chopping off heads of anyone who speaks ill of Saint George Floyd.

I never played in a band.

and it's a good thing you were too drunk to remove clothing or we would have never seen you again.

I used to get in alot of trouble but have made an effort to act proper for the last year or so. I have visions of being a mod one day and want to stay in the good Grace of JP. I'll be out of the dog house in another 38 years or so I think.

had I not learned to proofread what I type I would have either way surpassed the dawg on post counts or y'all would be getting weather from cctx forever more.

Pffft.


never happen

I type stuff out on all platforms and end up deleting it before posing it about half the time. Reddit is the only one I don't care too much about having a differing opinion, and you gotta really break a rule over there to catch a ban.

I hope to make mod some day but I bet they wipe the mod page on the server the day before if it ever happens.

just sayin.

May be worth it but I’m sure it won’t change a thing for the hitler of canada. I can’t stand that site anymore.

Ha this is the last bastion of free speech compared to other fishing sites. Mods/owner does a great job here IMO.

96speed's formula for internet success: Type/proofread/delete 9 out of 10 posts before hitting "reply." Also, deleting most social media platforms has greatly increased my productivity. TFF is social media, but I'm not involved in much else otherwise.

The only replies I have had to delete before posting are when people have power pole issues in the Bass Section.

I lurk over there but rarely post, I see this ^ for sure.

think we should tell him al lives in canada?

I only go there for boat info now, bass cat section is useful

I pretty much just want to delete other people's posts.

I did Jazz band and got banned from there to. I type to much from IPhone and don’t proof read enough and just really don’t care. I think most can get the information needed to repost

I don't delete chit. If you're going to post it, own it. Don't be weak and delete it
Then there's also the option of not being online constantly. Crazy concept i know.

Like

Yeah and makes most of his money off of Americans. Great idea, call Americans racist, the same people that support your sponsors. Thats for you Lil’ Al.

Al’s rules: No political post, unless they bash Trump, then they are praised. Then the clown tries to act like he is neutral.



Looks like BigOlBobbers is trying to over there. Better watch out BigOl’, he’ll ban you.....




Thank the Lord, Texas and this forum are still run by people with common sense.

I was hoping a ghadafi style exit would happen to him.

Is this where the BBC refugees come after being punished?

Lol, this is where people with common sense and love of America come too. Most of us were already here though.

What's really funny is how over there they say TFF is too out of control, not monitored, and a bunch of racist.

Hope so.. I got banned and I didn't even participate in any of the threads.

Must be. I just got Banned from there too.

I don’t believe that he banned you, but welcome anyways.

I just don't get how much that place has changed in 5-10 years.

Dindu?

You know what you can do dano.................”delete”

Al is quickly becoming just like Glenn is on BR....

I’m a transplant from BBC who is currently in the crosshairs of Al. I’m hanging by a thread. Can’t stand that site anymore. It’s good to see some familiar names on here. I go by a different one here than o do over there. I can see a [censored] ton of people leaving that site.

Well, we don’t have the numbers of guys from across America, like he has there; but most of the guys here are pretty cool guys. Not near as many trolls here and the moderators stay neutral and unbiased. Al is losing it mentally, he doesn’t realize that HE is the problem with his forum.

Well you can believe it. I wouldn't be saying it if it wasn't true.

Delete?

How do you delete someone's post so that you don't comment and get banned?

...or do you mean?

"You type your own post or comment, then "delete it" before you hit "enter"?

For me, "none" so far.

In fact, I got scolded yesterday for commenting on "ammo pricing" in the "non-fishing classified."

Addendum: The problem: I say/type what's on my mind.

...------

The reason I wont post over there is because I may need to ask a question in the Skeeter or Yamaha forum. And I'll for sure get banned for being American.

Hey Tom!

Howdy!!! Good to see a bunch of familiar folks.

I came over here based on Al's suggestion that if you find something better then leave. I think it's a shame current events can't be discussed over there because of hurt feelings. TFF has everything that BBC has and a little more that interests me in my opinion. No hatred on my part, I just took his advice. I think it hurts his sponsors more than it does me. When I buy something I like to tell the sponsors where I saw their product. I like this site and the THF but I just lurk on THF cause those guys are hard core!!!

Ok, I looked and there it is in black “banned”. Odd, you been friends with him for a loonngggg time. You did walk the line a few times though.

Welcome, My brother!

I quit using my name and went back to my original nickname. Some jackwagon reporter was stalking me online. I try to put as little identifiable information on any social media now.

I never knew you to have a temper.

Is this like an invasion or something?

Do we need a wall to keep out BFC or BBC or BFF or whatever they are from?

Then we can have WAWI pay for it....thatll be cool.

This is too funny. Now the BBC is bashing us for bashing them.

A comment on a "comment."

"Free Speech" is NOT dead, but many in this country want to take it from the rest while abusing/using it themselves.
The rest of us are fighting hard, and we will NOT give it up!

...------

The British Broadcasting Channel is bashing us?

Or is it the OTHER thing we all know BBC stands for? Because that would be really odd if it was. I would not want to be bashed by that BBC.

Friends??? Oh hell no. I had PMs to show he was no fan of mine. In fact, I lasted longer than I thought. He just decided to ban me out of the blue for no reason. As you can see, I'm heartbroken.

These are the good ones, no need to keep them out. But WAWI can buy us all burgers & drinks.






“....I would never allow that on my site....”

My new philosophy has been, “Argue with idiots less. Fish more.”

You’re getting all of the good BBC members that are trying to flee from what’s going on over there. We love America, support the police, respect teachers, and believe in individual responsibility. All of those things are frowned upon over there.

I paid extra here for my membership so they can't ban me. I can say whatever I want.

Dan’s fascination with BBC is concerning.

There are lots of posts I should have deleted, some I regret. There were also many posts there were deleted for me and some of that still makes me mad. I think twice before I hit that button now, but it’s not near as much fun.

They have some interesting thread topics over there though.

How many of yall are in your head

How do we know you are all good? Maybe we need to background check yall. Make sure you are who you say. And you are coming for the reasons you say. How do we know you are not actually spies? Or infiltrators? What if you try to turn this place into the very place you fled?

Al Shields could be the most hated man in bass fishing.. I don't mind that he's from Canada, I mind that he might be an anti-gun, snowflake that's creating a safe place for his liberal buddies. There's a team of suckasses that PM him after they CONTINUALLY start a political thread and a conservative posts an opposing opinion. They are masters of projection, but they can ride that horse to the ground. Even the mods call him on his [censored], he's the almighty and he always claims he's fed up and gonna sell it, just to get his minions to screech and beg him to stay.

Oh, Hi guys!

Howdy.

I’m fine with them, as long as they don’t complain as much as the rest of you bunch of Nancy’s.

Wait, what???? They sell get out of jail free cards on here. Shut up and take my money

No more from you until you deliver us what you promised...

He won’t sell, because nobody will kiss his rear end anymore. Most are just nice to him because he is the owner, not because they actually like him. Nobody gives a flip that he’s Canadian, we give a flip that he’s putting down one of the greatest countries in the world, (that he profits from).

I'll never understand why a liberal would buy a bass fishing site and expect rainbows and unicorns to be the topic of discussion.

So Al suggested you could leave huh?? So it had nothing to do with the "whiskey talk" ??

All that liberal whiskey talk was dragging down conversations!!!

That tells the story, people are growing tired of it.

Also, I'm sure he will raise a stink and try to push his weight around here too, if given a chance


He's playing the charlatan role now.. "Oh' the humanity"

He wouldn't allow bashing...

But this thread remains, even though it's been called BS by Don W and several others..

Sorry, but just in shock to see it go that way, after so long. Don't want to see his form of censorship reach here is all.

You have to make sure not to use any vulgarity here, they want to keep it clean in case kids read some of these threads. Other than that, it’s pretty simple to get along with most here. If if you want a cat fight, once you have enough post, you can join the “bunker” section.

Thank you sir! Will do!

Just left BBC also. The Ban Hammer only swings one way there and it’s getting old. I will still visit but not as much as I used too. I think many others are leaving also.

He acts neutral, but would send hateful PMs bashing Trump,

Bro, what’s with the screen name?

And about how careless we Americans were with Covid spreading.

And how bad the racism is here in America.

And cry if you made fun of Dodge.

Of course, we know where he gets his news from. Man this hogpile is making me laugh.

My son came up with that one and I though it was great. Did not want to use my BBC screen name. I’m sure the BBC gestapo is lurking.

Oh they are.

Oh I used an original name too......

I remember you plus many other refugees that are here. I had no idea so many had left. After reading “Closed Threads” it really opened my eyes.

And he also says no conspiracy theories allowed! .... LMAO! Guess who dictates whether something is a conspiracy theory or not?

none

Maybe put less sugar in your coffee??

Here we are? Both of y’all lonely. You’ve got tonight.

Al Shields can hug a root.

I'm not sure what seems more strange, your name or the fact your son came up with it.

thier or their?

Only thing good about that site is selling things

He acts .ike he does not want to get bashed by one, but we can see through that

I recognize your signature.....yeah I imagine he didn't like that.....lol

Well, when they get to you, feel free to steal and share.

Does that unicorn have a neck tattoo?? Weird.

Al is okay, just a hard core Liberal.
He banned me for life but in a PM he sent me he told me to never post in another political thread, my response was something to the effect that he is now censoring what I can post in? I told him he is more than welcomed to ban me, 5 minutes later I was gone.
I do not harbor no I’ll toward him at all, it’s his site and he can choose whatever he wants to do. But make no mistake, he needs members more than we need him.....I think he forgets that.
He will not sell that site as he is always telling the mass he might do, He needs the attention and the money. But if he keeps up with his Liberal ways he might not have enough members that will attract sponsors, then it’s the waste basket.

Guy or girl? Who’s gonna grab the “package”???

Oh No, he has no concern about American politics....

From what I understand, we have gained a handful of right leaning members, I feel we owe a few left leaners in trade.
I would be happy to choose if needed...

Yea.....right
I’ve heard that from Al enough times. He plays to the dumb and dumber crowd.

I enjoy discussion with the left wingers if it's semi-respectful. I think they are nuts, but enjoy the conversation.

this ^^^^^^^^ most of the time

We have a mix of opinions on here and that's not bad. Do you really want this place to turn into Parlor or 8chan?

I think every post fishslime and do-nothing have had this year has been trolling.
No mix of opinion, just blatant trolling

The day you become a mod is the same day I become a millonaire

Yeah,,,I had that in my signature for years and he deleted it a while back.. LOL

Hey guys!!!... He just decided he can't break you so he bans you... Dan

Al is certainly free to continue ruining BBC and to keep lurking on TFF.
It is good to see more and more BBC refugees on here.

Do you open the bar here too Dan?

Glad to see all the good folks from BBC that I haven't seen in a while

Silly Canuk he should know by now you can't break a Browns fan.

Or people with VPNs.

[quote=smbass77]Do you open the bar here too Dan?

Is this not the original bar?

Dang, keep bringing the good ones over!

At least Al’s dreams can finally come true, a mostly sheeply following that worships him.

It's dwindling, unless he can convince a few more Canadians to join his icky bass fishing site... He advertises 140,000+ members, mostly made up of burner accounts with 1 or 2 troll posts..

The best place at BBC is the Humminbird Forum, Wayne is guru of Humminbird products and is always willing to help out everyone. Generally speaking, most of the other forums are pretty good, but Al rules the roost on the Lounge Forum, it should be called Liberals Only Forum.

Hey Dan, I know you got booted in a thread we were both in on, I guess he flipped a coin and chose you to go and for me to be banned later on.
I pretty much do not post anywhere much anymore, I have been reading a lot of stuff, maybe when I get to know more people here I might even start a G- Man thread....lol!

I thought it was interesting what finally got me "suspended". I have done much worse over the years. It is pretty crazy just how obvious it is he takes actions like this. He will delete posts of left leaning people being the same and not ban so he can act like its only one side.

Do it!

I have deleted many post like everyone else.
But it seems like lately I don`t delete as many.

Wow, lots of BBC folks coming over. Once I get Banned over there, then I’ll change my name here. I need to get my badge of honor first.

It's just crazy how much he lets his personal opinions rule and its gotten significantly worse. I mean the dude is almost 80 gotta start worrying about mental faculties...

Y'all are welcome here as long as you don't post any Neil Young or Petty videos.

Agreed.

Pro tip- if you really want people to like you around here, post the same 6 photos from the 1950’s (or whenever the first color camera was invented) repeatedly.

What's wrong with Tom Petty? Ha

Do NOT do that, if you want to stay.

Nothing at all. There are a lot of haters around here. Petty is an American treasure and one of the greatest songwriters, and rockers of all time. He was also about as cool you can get. If you look up cool it says "See Tom Petty".

If you like Petty, you are welcome here.

Once I broke down and bought the Super Chip, Baby Doll Jig pkg, and the Halloween Blade, it magically released all the inner demons I had posting on TFF.

Harpers got that kind of mojo, dang!

yet you wonder why no one here likes you. smdh.

All of that hate started when one of the more unpopular TFFr's would post Tom Petty videos in the music threads, and the mob here used that as a reason to attack said TFF'r.

I'm a Cody Jink junkie........

post deleted

That’s a pretty charitable and whitewashed explanation.

so I'm guessing you never got one of his special private messages. there is a reason he got banned. no surprise you stick up for him though. birds of a feather...

WayneP. hangs out over on the Electronics, Sonar, Radar, Chart Plotters, Mapping Chips page... The one I miss is Don on the Mercury forum... Dan

https://texasfishingforum.com/forum...sonar-radar-chart-plotters-mapping-chips

I'm not sticking up for him. Just stating what I have observed here.

I should delete a bunch more, but my ADHD isn't having it.

I kind of remember that.

BUT that guy aside, I mean Petty is like my fave. That fact that some joker who used to post here liked Tom Pettys music should not be a blemish on Mr. Petty's career of influential and inspiring music. Just means even if you disagree with someone on many subjects, you can always find some common ground if you try.

?
Dan once again has confused the OT with his Dr. Who forum

Lot's of examples of the Dunning Kruger effect on here.

Yeah, Brown fans are pretty numb to pain... Go Bucks!!!... Dan

Me too!

More like “numb in the brain”!

lol

Tom Petty sucked

Browns coach got coach of the year and made the playoffs. Far better than any team from Tx.

Looks like the Canuck Ban Hammer is starting to swing again. Might get a few more new members here.

http://www.bbcboards.net/showthread.php?t=1122235

First sign of intelligent life I've found here so far.

How goes the march Dan??

I would say.. I'm guessing courting the Karens is a new strategy over there.

Alberto is almost there with his new forum, post #159 there said it all.

He must have missed that one .... he's still alive and kicking!

Libtard Al can suck it. I got my ban for telling him what a lib anti American he is

It’s like the old girlfriend dumped you and you’ve found a new girlfriend to service some of your needs. Sure, you can tell people that you’ve moved on, but in your heart, you’re still in love your old girlfriend and just wish more than anything that she’d change her ways. And although she probably won’t confront you about it, your new girlfriend knows that you pine for the old one.

Go check out the BBC. You'll be docking with Al by the end of the week.

Are you offering to service needs?

Not Macho!

Meh, it’s not that hard to open another account there. He just goes by email addresses, I’d rather not support his business, but I do enjoy making fun of him. His little minions tell him what we say.

Well St. Joe's knee is rehabbing right on schedule for the opener and with the 5th pick in the draft they're looking for a playmaker... So hope springs eternal... Dan

I think he knows my IP address...... I don't want to give him and his ilk any more traffic to that site, he is no friend of America.

Would be very inauthentic outfishdya...my heart definitely wouldn’t really be in it.

I was referring to the debil guy grout-scout, not you. I think he has 5 posts here and all of them are about the old girl. It wasn’t a shot...just an observation expressed by way of a simile.

This ^^^ I have never deleted any of my posts. However I have had a few deleted by mods. Last one was a fishing report for Canyon Lake when a couple of guys who I said "could have" been fishing a Thursday night tournament rolled up on me, (within flipping distance) while I was wade fishing after work one evening. A couple of busy bodies got offended by it and the next day it was gone. But never to the point of spending any time on the WOS.

No problem sir, I wasn’t offended. and I don’t blame guys for flying under the radar, BBC has a few good pages and some good people, unfortunately the owners going . Hopefully he’ll sell it and someone with some common sense will take over.

How many other forums is Mark a mod on?

I agree. I told him that because someone doesn't agree with him he stops the post or bans the person. I'm banned as well. He only wants people that think the same way he does.
