Default What OSO coming too ?

I don't even know how to ask this. I know the answer it's not Offshore Only. So let us old Guys walk away an you new Guys have it. I'm done. This sight use to be the best info an fun sight in the world. I miss my friends an real boating. If someone died in a boat crash we Wanted to learn from it. Sorry it's going by the wayside. Hope you new guys can figure it out. Good luck an God Bless. I'm going to run with the real boaters. Captain Artie

Im a vagina post would be something like. " my wife thinks i should sell my boat so I will because she wears the pants" lmao!

Artie is old school and there is lots of old school young people. But there is more millennial young people with no dignity or respect.

I don't care what you think . The guy lost everything. I would say something like... Stick around and help teach these young people that men wear pants and ladies are ladies.

Not sure. This site has changed over the years. A lot less activity these days. Years ago, every perf. boater that had access to a computer was on here. Now it's Facebook and other SM sites.

OSO is still Ok in my book. Problem is people want to have a big debate over stuff that could easily be ignored.

I agree. When I first came to OSO, it was a wealth of knowledge and information about all makes/models of boats, not to mention a cool site to hear experiences of guys that were/are legit performance boating legends. I'd been around boats all my life, but was just getting my feet wet in the twin-engine world and the site was pretty helpful in my search for a boat that fit my needs and I got some sound advice on several things. I'd say alot of people just got tired of the pissing matches and went elsewhere.

Too bad the mods won't help Artie keep his word and just ban him. I've seen enough of these threads from him here and PBN.

I will never understand why people feel the need to start an "I'm taking my ball and going home thread" when they stop enjoying a website.

Newsflash:

Nobody cares if you are leaving. Don't be a teenage girl about it! Just stop signing on.

Does no one remember the days when really "old school" OSO was full of grown men calling each other names and arguing non-stop? Because I do!

It's not so bad here when you put it all into perspective, JMO.
