    Being in the military or law enforcement, hunt, or just like shooting target. Do you want communist government laws. So I guess you want guns and talk of guns banned. Clubhouse is for various discussions.

    I don't get alot of time to log on anymore. Looks like I missed something.
    What did candy do to get the boot? All the things that have been said on here, I didn't think you could get thrown off.

    No, of course not. If I were to initiate a new member to the club I would show he/her the positive side of life, that is why they logged onto POLK. To trash **** is like being in tenth grader when the new freshmen arrive. Grow up, unless you are a tenth grader. Why make this obcene? There is so much out there that I can become a part of if I want. I chose this site to be about a connection about POLK AUDIO. Move on others

    I didn't see anything really warranting getting the boot, either, but I did read something about a deleted post.

    And about guns...they SAVE lives, too, 'cause a lot of times the bad guy has one as well. Not to mention the recreational uses.

    Well put. Vintage, FM, and helping answer questions and give input to others is other things to do in this forum. Clubhouse is almost for any topic. If it is bad, the forum will take care of it.

    We don't need you to come here and tell the people who have been around MUCH LONGER and contributed MUCH MORE to Club Polk than you how they should act on this internet forum. There are many here who enjoy firearms, scantily dressed women (or men :rolleyes:), cars, boats, motorcycles, alcohol, etc...in additon to audio...and dicuss all of those topics from time to time. Don't like it, feel free to ignore the posts, go somewhere else, put everybody you don't want to read on ignore...but don't **** and moan cause it isn't going ot change just because you don't care for it.

    I don't but I think he was complaining to Justin a lot. Would like to know also. Was passionate but I don't think he threatened anyone, like some have.

    I would bet Candy got banned for bothering the mods every day. There's only so many times you can complain that someone is harassing you before people will get annoyed.
    If you will it, dude, it is no dream.

    Well, I just pulled off the impossible by doing a double-blind comparison all by myself, purely by virtue of the fact that I completely and stupidly forgot what I did last. I guess that getting old does have its advantages after all :D

    Im pretty sure if its banishment its literal. If you are suspended then you can come back after whatever length of time it is.

    A simple discussion about guns got out of hand due a new guy wanting to "educate" the members regarding their recreational choices. He doesn't line babe threads (tasteful or otherwise) either....here is the now locked gun thread.

    I think it was Mox or Pox or perhaps Smallpox :D whatever his name was.

    He got banned for telling someone, Heiney9 I think. that he was a piece of s**t and that he coud drop them at 300 yards with his rifle.
