Jiffy

Really?  freedom of speach?  Look Jiffy's cool 'n all, but that whole "forum moderation is taking away my freedom of speach" line is getting old.  Marksman, I'm assuming from other posts and topics of yours that you must be brighter than this.

If Jiffy were arrested by our government for posting words on a public internet forum, that could be infringing on his freedom of speach, but this isn't his web forum and the owner of this web forum and any other web forum or website can kick and ban anyone he or she pleases, and for whatever reasons.  Since Jiffy has the freedom of speach he can make his own forum titled "THE F-BOMB" where members can drop the F-bomb all day long, talk about its origins, uses, its etymology, and discover new ways to use it and he, yes Jiffy, can ban and kick any member he chooses on his "public" web forum.

If you come into my living room and yell $%^&&*(  *&^&^%& #$ in front of my kids, I'm kicking you out and you can go cry to the government about how I took away your freedom of speach.  The president himself (past or present) doesn't even have the "freedom of speach" you speak of to yell the eff word in my house, but I do.

anyway, bring Jiffy back he's cool....there, my votes cast.

i like the fence post remarks they always make me chuckle.

I would say if Jiffy wanted to be here he would not have posted what he did. I could be wrong; but what I know of him, I would say he no longer wants to be here... I know he is on other forums and you can always visit him on Facebook where profanity is not listed in the rules and regulations he agreed to when he became a member.

Marksmen been hitting the blue Ribbon??Not a Jiffy groupie so it doesn't really matter to me....

Off course the forum can kick off whom ever they want. How much influance does the number of members,the number of posts by members,the length of time a member has have on getting vendors to advertize on a forum?  The internet is a wonderful thing.

Muilt     Here is a part of a post you made on the Topic of Petition for a New Moderator

but no where do I put the word "fishingbuddy" through my head when I'm thinking about anything to do with politics.

I think this site does need some "super moderators" to completely axe everything thats off topic, or have a completely separate "off topic" forum in which threads started there don't bounce to the top of the right side of the front page.  I swear less than half of this site's threads and posts have anything to do with what this site was intended for in the first place.  someone needs to flush cause it's starting to stink around here.  So yeah on second thought, I'll sign that petition so long as we get a moderator nazi that will delete half the crap from this site instead of just tolerating 90% of it

If up to you,you would banish anyone who used them or just the ones you don't agree with.     These topics are part of the site or they would not be listed just as fishing and hunting. 

Thanks for the reply

yeah, and whats that got to do with me being sick of the freedom of speech being brought up every time someone gets kicked for saying #@$%

Besides that, mauser, I think you've been #1 on the majority of this sites member's list to be banished back to the missouri news article cut/paste land you came from.  why are you a member here anyway, do you fish or hunt?  I've never seen you mention either...really, why are you here?

Marksman, I don't know why you are pouting ? I missed out on some of what happened but from what I did see and judging by the reactions of others I gather that he was pushing the limits. Jiffy does not have any more right to go above and beyond the rules set by FB than any one else on here. If he had been warned about it in the past He got what he was asking for, Plain and simple. If I could cast a vote either way I would vote for him to return, Only because He provided good information on the site. I have no clue what he is like in real person, He might be a great guy but on here if you were not one of his buddies or if you didn't agree with him he could be quite annoying to say the least. Almost like he felt that he was such a contributor to the site that the mods wouldn't dare give him the ax. I relate it to the oilfield , Some of the best hands out there get the attitude that they can not be replaceable and they establish pecking order and bend the rules in their favor and spout off to the driller or tool pusher or the company hand or who ever when confronted about it. They keep pushing their luck till one day you see them walking down the road cussing and kicking their lunch bucket ahead of them. It happens on a daily basis out there. I respect Jiffy and everyone else on here but at the same time rules are rules and we all agreed to them before we could get our accounts on here. Where is that self discipline when you need it ? I think this is an amazing site. Besides all the fishing and hunting pictures and stories. I get to enjoy thumbing through a wide variety of posts and some of the dogonest ones interest me. I have no problem skimming through the topics and ignoring the ones that I don't want to read. Some people give me the impression that they are forced to read every single post on here and they are pissed because there are so many. I just don't see it that way, If it is of no interest to me I don't click on it. So anyway one way or the other we should all be trying to get along instead of all these pissing matches.

I haven't been in a bar for many yrs to sit down and drink.   I still have 7 cans out of a case that was bought on the 4th of July.  I mostly cook with it. Live too far out in the country to run to town to get any

I guess my post was offensive.  Sorry,  No harm intended and not trying to stir the pot.
