Diamond Geezer & Fen Boy are two outspoken regulars that I haven't seen on AN lately. Anyone know where they've gone?

DG might not be everybodies choice but I found his comments quite sharp and vaguely amusing, sometimes!

if you'd read the overtly threatening emails and private messages he sent to me and a few other AN regualrs you would probably think differently!

Haven't gone away, just keeping my head down. I'm aware that I've upset a few people on the forum with my outspoken views... and it's a situation I don't like, for a couple of reasons:
1. I don't think squabbling on a public forum does any good for the image of angling. In other words, I'm probably guilty of doing a disservice to the sport I love - and that would be rather hypocritical, wouldn't it? 2. I don't like upsetting people (ie I usually regret it afterwards). But when I get wound up I can't help myself. In the blood, I guess, because I'm very capable of doing it face to face and not just on forums. Sorry about that. So, I reckon it's best I cool down a bit and enjoy the nice banter between you reasoanble folk, while keeping my own strongly-held views to myself. I haven't gone away, I'm just keeping quiet. -------------------- Fenboy

lets the force flow luke ,if it gets ut of hand it will be deleted and hopefully no long term harm done ,if we all agreed on everything how boring it would be ,it may have been noticed i love to differ even if i dont actually beleive it myself youl get plenty of "bites" and otherwise silent onlookers will take the bait or better still send death threats via e'mail but at least it livens things up demon

I struggle to see how your views can offend people Fenboy.You always make the effort to explain/justify them too.For me that makes interesting reading.
Was once on the end of DG's wrath myself when he had got it into his head I was someone else butI did find his posts thought provoking and knowledgable.He would never coment on something he did not have experience of or looked into even if his research was some times wrong! |

fenboy - I agree with previous comments from Budgie & chesters1. We miss your views on here.
If angling can't tolerate a little honest disagreement and outspoken opinions then it isn't nearly the sport I think it is. -------------------- "Democracy dies when the people wanting their government to take care of them outnumber those wanting to take care of themselves." - Author Unknown - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - For a selection of lures, reels and other items, visit my eBay shop http://stores.ebay.com/JaNewt-eMart |
