I think we change the name from FBO to TSO

Tim Sandstrom Outdoors

So us idiots are not allowed have an opinion on a certian store, "Wonder Why"

So we probable won't be able to talk negatively against the Bears or Twins either.
Discussing the concerns of a store is just like talking bad about a football, baseball team or even a politician.  All that goes on on this site but yet we strike a nerve when we discuss in inadeqaucies of a HUNTING/FISHING store.

I don't get it, I thought this site was to talk about hunting and fishing, If a sporting goods store is not up to par why would we not vent our concerns.  But you will allow a topic that talks nicely about Scheel's

Thinking of a word that starts with hippo and ends with ?????

You guys are like a bunch of 3 year olds.  Quit with the damn whining ALL THE TIME.  Is that all you are on here for?  You guys use this site to bitch and complain and that is all you do!  I FEEL SORRY FOR TIM, HE HAS TO DEAL WITH YOU GUYS EVERY DAY!  He is not a baby sitter.  When is the last time you guys have done something positive with this site?  Have you ever helped anyone out?  Given a fishing report?  or are you a constant smart ass and baby when your post gets deleted?  I think we all know where a lot of you whiners fit into.   So Call Em In, if you have to ask I think you know where you fit in too!  I think Tim just needs to start getting rid of the trouble makers on here!  Then maybe people won't be afraid to post a question or a picture.

There my venting is done for this time,

Have a nice day!

So what now all Tims freinds are gonna get on here and defend what he said?  I agree if you read the first post on the scheels topic,  I have to agree that certain people were just telling of shopping experiances that they encountered, it was a disscussion and for him to say what he did and close the thread was wrong for all.  I dont post much, for that reason, only when i see others being wronged.  What is fair for some people should be fair for all.  Everyone should have their own say, "its called freedom of speech"  IMHO

I have been a fishing Buddy fan for years, however; over the past year this site has gone away from a place one can go and find information about fishing.  Very disappointed in this site.

I am not a friend of Tims, I have never even talked to him.  It just amazes me the way some people just are not happy unless they are complaining. 

Oh yeah, nice profile pics guys.  I guess I should restate the 3 year old comment.  Because you guys are clearly 12- 13 year olds just hitting puberty.

Have a nice day

First off, I want to start by saying I have never talked to Tim Sandstrom.  For those of you that will try and read between the lines it means I'm not his friend defending his views. 

It seems to me that many of the fishing buddy members have a real knack for complaining.  It doesn't often matter what the situation is, there is always someone lurking to tear another member down.  I believe this is because there is no accountability.  You sit behind your profile name and your picture of some scantily clad model (needless to say, which is less than immature for you to have as your avatar) and you criticize what other people killed, kept, or "did".  

Now many people love to pull the "it's a free country" card when stating their opinion.  Well guess what, if "Joe" wants to keep a five pound walleye on Devils Lake, "Joe" can keep a five pound walleye.  Now it may be hard for you to understand but he paid the same license fee as every other North Dakotan so why shouldn't he be able to?  Now does this mean that I would keep a five pound walleye? NO, but that doesn't mean someone else shouldn't be able to keep it.  I've discovered more often than not, that the person who keeps a fish that most would release is also the person that fishes twice a year.  So give 'em a break.  More than likely you, like myself, keep limits upon limits of 14" to 21" fish over the course of a summer.

Same theory applies to deer hunting.  If someone wants to kill a 120" deer they can.  Now once again, I wouldn't, but that doesn't mean someone else can't.  If it makes them happy, then why should we criticize it?  Like many of you love to say, it's a free country isn't it?  We should all try and minimize our negative comments on this site and it will be a much more enjoyable time for everyone. 

So how does this apply to Tim?  He's one of the people on this site that doesn't do what I've previously stated.  He tries to keep this site as a place where a man or woman can come and get beneficial information to help them catch more fish.  I applaud him for trying to minimize the heckling that so often goes on over pictures and posts.  Heck, not only that, but he's also one of the few that has the balls to put his name on a post.

 I'm going to end my post by making a bold statement that applies to life and certainly this site; NO ONE IS PERFECT!!!  Yes, I said it, no one.  And unless you were that certain person who walked the Earth two thousand years ago, you aren't perfect either.

God Bless.

jiggin... i created the thread.... how low did i stoop by simply asking if anybody else got the same poor service i have recived time and time again.  if i was such a minority than i would not have gotten 4 pages of overwhelmingly negitive reports in less than one day. i think tim does a great job running this site but clearly there are issues with this particular chain of stores. if he felt some posts were disrespectfull then he could have deleted them and not shut down the thread.

i was never trying to start a fight but clearly i am not the only person that has had issues with scheels.

Sorry fellas but freedom of speech doesn't apply here. Its up to the moderators discretion what he wants to allow on his website and thats the way it should be. I think he does a heck of a job. In some cases I even think he could use a little more discretion but its up to him ultimately.

If you don't like it start your own website.

I think four pages of bashing a store is getting the point across. I would've locked it also.

I have to agree with moose hunter 09, this is a public site for all to use and see and make their own opionos and for someone to tell them what they can and cant say is unconstitutional.  what is with the same group of people on this site that think it is theirs to own  and operate for their own personal glory?  peoples comments should not be deleted, that is their right to say what they want if you dont like it or agree go to a different topic.  what gives 1 guy the right to call another guy an idiot for his veiws on a deparment store, which in this case is SCHEELS.  why are their so many glory hounds on this site that beilve what they have to say is the bible, take it or leave it.  To me it seems that the same group of guys on this site can say and do what they want, and when someone that doesnt comment on here very often wants to start a topic to tell of his great buck, or big fish, or scheels, he is shot down and told to keep his mouth shut.  wrong!!!!!!   THIS IS A PUBLIC SITE AND EVERYONES VEIWS AND COMMENTS SHOULD BE NO LESS IMPORTANT THAN YOURS JUST CAUSE YOU SIT ON THIS SITE DAY AND NIGHT!!!!!!!!      aka scott borlaug

LOL. Your putting words in my mouth. I'm just telling you the way it is. Its Tim's website therefore he has the right to CENSOR whatever he pleases and there isn't a damn thing you can do about it. YOU are free to start your own website and say whatever YOU like. THATS FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

 On most national sites allot of comments like the ones that get posted on here would have you banned in a heart beat.

Here's ones rule I would love to see here!

Contributors who are argumentative, intolerant, confrontational, and lack respect for others will be removed. While debate is often healthy, habitual debaters and people who seek confrontation will be removed and potentially blocked from making future contributions. This is necessary to ensure a positive experience for the great majority of our visitors.



Rules from other sites you might want to consider.

1. Above all, respect each other. While we realize that discussions may get heated, vulgar language or name calling cannot be tolerated. Masked vulgar language (ie, w*rd, rul*s, etc) is considered vulgar.

2. If a moderator removes your thread or post, contact that moderator by PM to request their reasons, or to explain yourself. Moderators are only human and there may have been a misunderstanding. Threatening a moderator will not be tolerated.

3. Please use the personal message (PM) feature to contact other members or forum moderators about any issue. Do not start a thread or use a post for this kind of contact.

4. Please use good taste in your choice of avatar. Nothing sexual or of a violent nature is tolerated.

5. Please limit your signature block to 5 lines or less, and size #2 or smaller. Signatures may not contain links to commercial websites unless the website is owned by a sponsor of ArcheryTalk.com and are not to be used for personal or commercial sales.. Links to personal webpages are acceptable.

6. Do not use posts to correct another poster's spelling or grammar - this is rude and unnecessary. If you do not understand what they are saying, ask them to clarify.

7. Do not interrupt a thread 's content direction to bring attention to another agenda or product.

8. Minors are not allowed to post in the classifieds section due to legal restrictions. Parents may post for their minor children and are responsible for all transactions. All traders must have a birthdate visible in their profile.

9. Remember that use of ALL CAPITAL LETTERS IN A POST is the same as shouting. It is best not to use all capital letters as it is difficult to read and is instrusive to readers.

10. What may not be in a post is as follows: Material that is threatening, harrassing, or abusive to any party. Content that is defamatory, hateful, potentially slanderous, or in violation of any law is not tolerated. Knowingly posting false or misleading material will result in moderator action.
NOTE: This includes Racial attacks, and racial slurs of any kind, directed at a fellow member or not.

11. Use the proper forum for your threads. Commercial threads need to be started in the manufacturer's announcement area. Bowhunting stories or hunting info need to be posted in the bowhunting forum, etc. If you are unsure about what to do or where to go, just PM a moderator or an administrator.

12. Spamming is not allowed. Spamming can be defined as using a post to promote a product or agenda. Threads may not be started for the purpose of adding spam material.

13. Asking for money, donations, or to offer giveaways, drawings, or the like is prohibited on Archery Talk unless you are a sponsor and have prior administrative approval. Donation requests will be removed. We realize that there are many good causes out there, but we have no way to verify the validity of such.

14. Please refer to the Rules of the ArcheryTalk Classifieds before buying, selling or trading. Specific Rules and Guidelines are posted here

Here's anothers

 1. No Profanity. This includes cursing, sexual innuendo, vulgar statements
 2. No Threatening, harassing, or abusive remarks.
 3. No discussion, or challenge, to our editing policy are allowed within the conferences. If you disagree, or want clarification as to why a particular topic, post, or person was removed, you are required to e-mail us at editors1@bowsite.com. We will not respond to any inquiries or challenges on our public forums however we will respond to e-mail inquiries.
 4.

No topics and/or statements which could be used to reflect poorly on archery and/or bowhunting.

Since the Bowsite is visited frequently by anti-hunting organizations and non-hunting individuals, we feel it is necessary to remove those topics or statements which could be used against us, or tarnish our image. While the contributors original intent (e.g. an example of "what not to do") may be good-intentioned, if it can assist in presenting poor image to the media for our sport it will be removed.

 5.

No Advertising.

This includes both commercial, nonprofit, and classified ads. We have programs available for organizations, commercial businesses, and an extensive auction/classified ad section. Sponsors of the Bowsite and our related sites are granted permission to advertise their goods and services on our conferences.

An ad is defined as any post, topic, or blatant attempt to solicit business. An individual may respond, however, to a question on how to contact a business along with responses to inquiries on products or services. Suspicious contributions will be removed at the staffs' discretion.

 6.

Topics must be related to the forum. No off-topic posting allowed.

This means that while in the whitetail forum, only topics directly related to bowhunting whitetail deer will be allowed. For example, a question on tuning your bow posted in the bear forum is not allowed. See the forum guidelines below.

 7.

Contributors who are argumentative, intolerant, confrontational, and lack respect for others will be removed. While debate is often healthy, habitual debaters and people who seek confrontation will be removed and potentially blocked from making future contributions. This is necessary to ensure a positive experience for the great majority of our visitors.

 8. No HTML (eg. Links, or graphics) may be placed in your message. The reason for this is that too many people miss a quote mark or a bracket or something else and it ruins the entire thread and could possible hang the server. It also could be used to link to unsavory type stuff so it is prohibited.
9.

Anonymous Registrations are subject to removal.

People who register for our services under assumed or "bogus" names may be removed for any reason.

I do not know Tim but I will stick up for him just because I feel he has done  a good job of keeping things under control in the past and he is doing what he sees fit  to keep this site user friendly for the majority of the users.  I am sure he doesn't try to offend anyone on here by locking threads or having to tell them the profile pics are not acceptable.   I say he does a pretty good job of moderating this site.      I see a lot of great reports and helpful information oh here that keep me coming back. I also see  crybabies and rude people on here  constantly poking fun at good people who just want to learn.    Sportsmanship is getting to be a long lost trait , This site is (or should be) all about Sportsmanship.  If all you want to do is poke fun at people on here or if you are a crybaby you will get NO respect from me.   And for the FBO english teachers , You get the same respect as crybabies.      If I can't spell, Or if my grammer is not perfect please just let it go. You are the ones who live in a perfect world not me.  Don't include me in your own little perfect world

Call 'em in has driven a good friend of mine off this site due to constant harassing PM's on this site as well as FaceBook. I hope Tim bans this turd. All he does it whine and harass others. Good riddance!

Keep up the good work Tim!
