To all of you, my deepest apology

to all the members of this community, yesterday allowed my emotions and my views to get in the way and the purpose of this wonderful community. i started a thread where as was talking about my frustration with federal govt. this started a debate where members were frustrated with me. i deeply apologize for my action and will not make any accusations that anyone else had any wrong doing. i hope that all members who were involved will accept my apology. i am truly sorry for my actions.

Speaking for myself only, brother, you'd not owe me squat, even if I knew what transpired. I hope those you may have offended accept your apology - after all, it's just a social BB on the Internet, and not real life.

I think you're trying a bit too hard. Sit down, read everything, and then start posting.

Good luck.

Agreed. Although I wasn't involved with that thread, I did read it after it was closed. There are plenty of places for that type of discussion but this forum isn't one of them. Lesson learned. Move on.

Sit back. Have a cigar. Read through the threads, even the dinosaurs that haven't had any recent activity. I'm fairly new here as well and am taking my time to get to know the forum, the conversations and the people behind the posts. Even in the short time I've been here I've seen that this is a community of people that are really worth knowing.

See you around.

That is where you could be considered wrong, my friend. This is as real as it gets for many of us. To some, it may be just another board but since I have interacted for years with and met hundreds of members that are here, it is not just a social bb on the net to me. I consider them family and know most of them do the same. Afterall, that is a reason this board was started.

Hope that you enjoy your stay here at CA, but sit back, read all the stickies, read other posts to get the feel of this place, and then join in on all the action.

Thats what makes CA different, it isn't just a BB social forum on the net.

Thanks Troy for the apology, but unless there was something going on in PMs that I am missing. I didn't think your post deserved the flack it got. Sorry your first days at this board have been rough for you. Sit back and relax and try to go with the flow.
