I post not directed at anyone in particular, & choose this thread only because it seems opportune. I have not even read the other thread about TD.
As Westy said, sitting down & taking a breath is probably a good idea. Dummy spits & withdrawals on forums rarely achieve anything worthwhile other than leave the dummy spitter feeling they have backed themselves into a corner with nowhere else to go. There will always be support offered & sides taken & whilst this can make folk feel supported it tends to leave a longer term bad taste on the forum generally, long after the details are forgotten that less specific feeling can remain.
Any forum is about the sum of it’s parts, not just individuals, but for this to work all those parts/individuals need a willingness to give & take.
I’m not sitting on a fence but wish to state that I genuinely respect both TD’s & RLI’s inputs to our community. Both of you are capable of making mistakes, just like the rest of us & at times have done. Back to Westy’s comment again. Sit, down, take a breath. Build a bridge & get over it. We don’t need losses.

well said Kallen and Cuppa
everyone needs to take a chill pill if you dont like something dont read it if it offends you then talk to the person directly, Geez if anyone here goes caming with me they'll be in for a rude shock, I have no filter when it comes to saying anything really and i can offend people but this is who i am and i wont change that for anyone.
3D and RLI are stalwarts in our community people need to get over themselves there are WAY more important things to worry and stress over then a farkin story thats written by a bloke who has what Paul does or is in constant pain like 3D and on medication.
Have a FARKING good hard look in the mirror everyone

Righto blokes...
Pauly mate, a lot of respect to you but The minority do not rule the majority. I own this forum and I have not said anything in relation to anyone stopping anything.in this world of ours the minority rule the majority.
The buck stops with me and as far as I'm concerned nothing has changed.
Everyone listen up...
This is not one of our sheds of our friends we have chosen in life.
This is a forum of all different types of personalities, age groups, morals, beliefs, religions, etc so everyone needs to understand that everyone looks at things differently.
We all need to understand and accept that!
Paul, I will miss your yarns and hope to see them here again mate, I really mean that too!!!
I'm closing this thread and we are starting again gents hopefully with a different perspective.
