I think it's a really bad idea, further more I suspect that your motives in starting this thread are self serving and detrimental to my continued bad mood.

Cheers

Been a member here for a very long time, also belong to many other special interest forums and none have the 'tone' and negative vibe that OSO, unfortunately has deleloped. -Been mentioned before but few, deep in the industry that used to frequent the site stay clear of the site. It's Christmas, lets try to turn the tide a bit and bring back the friendly banter and solid tech discussions!

Merry Christmas,

Kurt
CSR/Clubsearay does too

OSO is the site that helped create all of the others. Made a lot of friends here, including Biggus Sad tho that the site changed drastically when Steve sold it.
I am on other sites for other things and although the bashing is less, overall I have found that the bashers and negative guys tend to hide in the weeds when called out. And then float to the surface to do it again.

Happy holidays and safe travels to all......

I guess I'm a relative OSO newbie at 9-10 years but I'm an old fart acc to a lot of other people. So us aging water folk need love and laughs too and Christmas and New Years is the time to do it when you don't want to got out for a run with 6 layers of clothes, a ski mask and 0 women. I have gained lots of knowledge reading the wit and wisdom of other (assumed) old farts on this website and agree with a little holiday cheer! This is Christmas the way I was brought up in the far far South and we are supposed to be partying and having a good time with our families. So go to it! Party and have a good time with friends and family like you're supposed to! And quit complaining already. We can handle it! Fix up your boat! Shine it a little! Summer'll be here before you know it!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!

I love the site. Definitely a newbie. Wish I new what I was missing. Sure some posts start to go in the wrong direction, I just bypass those the next time I log in. Hope we don't lose any of the knowledge due to a few bad apples. Realize, some throttle on the left and think its right. lol

Merry Christmas-Think spring!
