First, I don't use Earthlink's e-mail, but I do use the server. My registered e-mail on GBO is a 11 year old yahoo account. So, you are not receiving spam blocking from me. Some forum members, I believe jumped to a conclusion on that one. I review my posts and have not received a single admonishment, reminder or notice from GB or anyone else about spam, earthlink or anything of that nature, in spite of some who stated as though it was fact that I had.
Additionaly there was apparently a bad guy who got axed and I might have been mistaken for him by some. Happens all the time in the internet world where nobody really knows who anybody really is.
Lastly, Mac deleted a post that was relevant to this forum. It had a link to a company that does rechambering on NEF's. I also indicated in the post that I was initiating a conversation with them about further work on NEF's. Mac booted the post because the post began about with a barrel they make for T/C's. He found a similar post in the T/C forum and assumed it was a double and deleted it.
No big deal. Silly details. Moderators all over the internet run the gamut from not being involved in their boards to being nazis.
If you want a forum that doesn't allow deviation from the pet topic, so be it. I thought the post was interesting. I posted it as a courtesy, a friendly gesture. Look what it got me, I'm the bad guy now. Perhaps we should get back to re-explaining the barrel exchange program a few more times or whatever. This particular forum's members seemed to have a broader set of interests.
I have no interest in making the rules Mac, not even remotely what this is about. You deleted a post you didn't read because you thought it was a double. Small potatoes, who cares. But being made out to be a jackal just for calling you on it does. To me anyway.
Problem fixed. No more off topic posts. Guaranteed. Big world. I can find somewhere else for friendly conversation.
