Threads turnning itno arguments!
 
Been away from this site for a while. Just in the last month have come back because I'm slow at work and this is a pretty cool way to pass the time. I ended up leaving over a stupid coment on my part, that I now regret. Thats all in the past now, but since I have been back and posting a little, I notice 75% of these threads turn into arguments

This guy says this, that guys that, and before you know it, members are being chewed out for there OPINIONS. Kinda brutal.

What gives??

I guess it that makes sense for us that have to winterize. And I supoes the ones that don't are just defending them selfs eh? It all clear now

ChrisK 01-16-2004 02:44 PM

As already said before.... Its wintertime and all the northerners are pissed at us southerners because of our ability to use our boats.. hehehe

There are arguements from time to time, but I have been on this site almost everyday for 3 years now and couldn't ask for more of a nicer bunch of folks. Everbody on this site knows somebody or something, and that is just amazing. Whereas before in the early 90's often times you would go into buying used boats pretty blind. Now with OSO, somebody knows about that used boat, been on it, or owned it.

OSO has pulled together people from all walks of life with one general interest in mind. Because of this togetherness, members are more informed, better educated, and not to mention you have a buddy from every state that would buy you a beer anytime.

I have read sad stories here on OSO (DanL). I have read extremely happy stories here as well. And while I have never met many of the people here on this board, I am closer to the people on this board than most of my family.

Thank You OSO.

(Winter Depression brings out the sappiness)!

WARPAINT 01-16-2004 03:25 PM

Reed Jensen 01-16-2004 03:29 PM

Hey! I don't argue.... :D.... spew venom? ok... I'll cop to that one.... :D..... but it's all in fun..... I don't ever get personal.... just post my views....

Reckless32 01-16-2004 03:36 PM

That's why they make winter OSO gatherings such as the "chill out" coming up on the 31st in Richmond, VA. To relieve the withdrawal pains of winterizing and inject the bloodstream with a little saltwater.......oh and a few Heinekens too.....:D

Rippem 01-16-2004 03:57 PM

I'm seasonally depressed...dysfuctional...dehydrated and decomposing...no photosynthesis and working too f**cking much in order to pay for my habit. One miserable son of a b*tch overall. F U...yu got a problem wid dat motherf**cker? Like psychos off their meds...tread lightly! :crazy: :mad: :D

Rippem 01-16-2004 04:04 PM

Sun288...I'm just across the border fro you, and an original member of TIPBC. Let's throw back a few ounces of John Labbatt therapy this season..."eh" ? :D

RollWithIt 01-16-2004 04:16 PM

Sun288. The best way to look at it is that we are one big majorly dysfunctional family that despite all the arguements and bikering, are always there for one another in a time of need.

Katapult 01-16-2004 04:20 PM

OK So now and than it gets a little cold in NY, but after
all it is THE CENTER OF THE World.;)

Steve_H 01-16-2004 04:44 PM

arguments?
dont know what your talking about:crazy:

i acidently got myself into one recently as alot of you probably saw. started out just trying to have some fun and it escalated pretty quickly. THAT was never my intention.
im quilty of helping hijack a thread and for that i apoligize. the rest? well , you be the judge.
i think everyone here should be treated with respect no matter if they have a 10 ft. johnboat or a 200 mph skater.

in the words of forest gump "thats all i have to say about that"

Consintracy 01-16-2004 05:04 PM

Just too much testosterone around here.:eek:

JUST KIDDING.....JUST KIDDING!!!

Rippem 01-16-2004 05:11 PM

Consintracy....Throw a little estrogen into the uncensored forum and we'll all feel better! :D

LapseofReason 01-16-2004 05:14 PM

Sun, I know what your saying, Some people on this board are just slow learners. If they would just get it straight that Apaches are old junk, Fountains are new junk, and Outerlimits and Nortech rule the world everything would be fine.:D :D :D

Consintracy 01-16-2004 05:24 PM

Ask.....And you shall recieve!:D

It's 11 degrees right now and I doubt it's going up anytime soon. So I agree. :)

cuda 01-16-2004 06:19 PM

H2Xmark 01-16-2004 06:28 PM

Arguments, here, no way:D we have to do something every once and a while to have a little fun:D :D

I'm the guy with the tie at my workplace...ask the dozens of people around me. Though I am nice to my patients...most of the time :D

WILDTHING TAZ 01-16-2004 11:35 PM

LOCKED INSIDE WITH NO SUNLIGHT,BOAT PAYMENTS,INSURANCE PAYMENT, DO YOU WANT MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IM SURE WE WILL ALL BE OK IN APRIL :p

Rippem 01-16-2004 11:47 PM

Actually I consider this the "economical" season boating-wise as I'm not buying a slip/gas/beer/food/women on top of payments! :D

Canada Jeff 01-17-2004 01:56 PM

Rippem, yah, we'll hook up this summer. Do you know Mark Dodge 32 fountain, or you must know Sam Madonia, 42 fountain? I'm a member of the TIPC too, so's my father. I run a 288 Sunsation with black and gold graphics, father runs a 36 Apache. Did you run to Hendersons last fall with us?

Thanx all others for explaining some of the cheap shots I've read, and will read in the future.

HyperBaja 01-17-2004 02:46 PM

All I know is the Apache owners started it.

At least it didn't stop us from boating, albeit at trawler speed.:rolleyes: We were going on about a 30 mile run to have lunch, when the boat wouldn cooperate, I shut the one engine down and idled down the ICW to the Pub and had lunch anyway. No use in wasting the nice weather.:)

R Addiction 01-17-2004 03:38 PM

Oh Thanks Cuda....That makes me feel SOOOOOOOOO MUCH better!!!

So what did the Mrs. do on the long idle back? ;)

We had another couple with us, so we just shot the chit and came in. They are coming over later with lobster they got in the Keys, and we're going to cook them on the grill, then it's cocktail hour and hot tub.:)

Rippem 01-17-2004 04:20 PM

Sun288, Yea, I know Sam...don't know that I've actually met Dodge. I did do the run to Henderson, it was a blast on the way back. Dave Powell's crew and I played aroung wave jumping in Chaumount Bay for an our or so before we headed back. It was pretty wild on the way back...what a great time! ;) I had the 32' Velocity "Devil Inside" formerly, which now belongs to another TIPBC member. I was in Henderson with my new boat, a 353 Formula. Got crossed up in the wind at the docks there and almost took out my w/s on a cruiser anchor hanging off a bow pulpit. :rolleyes: Need to get used to "more nose" in the wind! :D 'Cuda, some of the best times with friends aboard have been at "low speed". Good conversation and you don't have to set your beer down. :)
