Now that sounds like a great idea! If they can get together in Amsterdam I see no reason why a bunch of us can't get together here in the States. Who's for it? Cheesy       They have a big "Punkin Chunkin" contest in Delaware in the Fall. That would be a great opportunity for a slingers convention. Cheesy

If we had...oooh... 10 000 more members we could have regular sling meets pretty much worldwide!

How about we advertise this website to our friends and family and to other internet people?

Ok,

I know i have a reputation for posting rude/racial/non productice, etc. posts, but the last one i posted was no joke. I was in total agreement with tech stuff, and i think it was wrong for us to make fun of him before, because he was right.

Beaver, I think it is best that you drop it. You aren't going to change anyones mind or feelings about the matter.


I apologize for sounding harsh, but I think no one really wants to hear it.

Thank you Matt. I think Beaver is just trying to provoke a responce. That TechStuff issue is old news now and it's time to move on to something else.

I thought quite a while before pulling the thread BB and I recognise the elements that you were opening up to discussion. It wasn't the initial post but the direction the discussion was going that tipped the balance. I don't like being a censor, but I also want to keep the atmosphere around here, and it is a fine balance.

If you like, feel free to start another thread, but please think about your title, and let's all try to avoid talking about our friends behind their backs.
