That's fine Kevin. But how about this solution. What if we had some area within the Forum for some of us who don't want to deal with all of this shit from people constantly challenging us on basic crap. How about if it were password protected and required a hundred posts before someone could enter so some of us could discuss stuff without being harassed like this. 75% of the Forum should be protected this way. We've suffered the absence of a lot of knowledgeable members because they couldn't take this crap anymore. Look at it this way: I'm one of the highest posting members on this site and I don't know shit sometimes. Wouldn't our members appreciate a forum that had more knowledgeable members than me?
I don't mind a little banter once in awhile like everyone else but not right in the middle of a good thread. It's destructive. It might be fun for john grahm but how would he like it if I went to his forum and started taking jabs like he did. He doesn't respect that others may be having a conversation and some of the people care enough about it not to have that thread disrupted by bullshit challenges.
If he doesn't like TGM or agree with some of the principles then WHY TELL US. I don't care if he believes in Bozo golf. Who cares. Fuc* off. I'm not here to convince the world of TGM. I only care what I and other like minded members care about sharing and discussing TGM related information.

I apologize Daryl.

Just wanted to tell everyone thank you for being such hospitable hosts.
Especially, Thank You to Lynn for tolerating my annoying alter ego and for pointing out my rudeness on one occasion.
Also, Thank You to 12 piece for the phone call and questions. Hope it was helpful.
Certainly, this experience has opened my eyes for interpretation of the little yellow book (wishing I had 6th edition, but oh well) and a better understanding of terminology.

Welcome John
Not sure I understand things fully, but welcome.
We had a guy named Jeff Mann once who took the opposite side on everything and drove some of us nuts.........perhaps a well intentioned taking of opposite sides but it still drove me insane.
I hope the real you sticks around and enjoys things. Thanks for your kind words about this place.
Ive believe you've met some of the regulars .....Daryl for instance is Brett Favres communications manager.....
Hey Kev, you don't owe me an apology. You made a very valid point about Johns intentions. You're always level headed and you always make sense to me and I respect and admire you for it.
It's not you, it's me. I've seen a lot of it. Not as much as Yoda or Bucket but they have better "Character" than me. I don't have the high "Stress Threshold" that you and they have. I lash out.
Daryl,
I look forward to you posts and have had many thought provoking moments because of them. Would hate to be excluded because my interest is to learn from the many intriguing discussions. Having people post just to reach a certain number is not in the best interest of the forum. Recent examples attest to this.
All of us get frustrated by interruptions and frivolous comments.
This is still the best place to be.

Your right. I always read your posts and I look forward to them and your insight.
Thank you
I've been working on a personal breakthrough on Low Point and Hinging for O.B.'s thread for three days now, and it keeps getting interrupted, and now, if you visit the thread, it's turned into "We again need to put everything on hold to prove Hinge Action exists." ok, that's life.
Sheesh, now I'M GETTING SLAPPED AROUND FROM AIR AND DARYL!

LET ME BE CLEAR! I ASK QUESTIONS BECAUSE I JUST DON'T KNOW A LOT! BEFORE I STARTED WRITING MY POSTS I WAS HOPELESSLY CONFUSED AND LONELY. NOW, I HAVE FRIENDS WHO ABUSE ME AND FRIENDS WHO SUPPORT/TEACH ME COOL THINGS ABOUT GOLF AND NORDIC FRISBEE GOLF DISKS. IF I REALLY THOUGHT I KNEW HOW TO SHOOT PAR, I'D SHOOT IT 5 TIMES IN A ROW, DRIVE TO BOLLINGBROOK, DROP PAR ON DARYL, TAKE A PICTURE OF HIS REAL BALD HEAD AND PUT IT ON YOU TUBE!
You have been warned!!!
