    He said nothing about banning you. He said something about shutting down the thread...

    Both of your threads were about judging others about their poles or burning trash. Perhaps, you should ask yourself what you are looking for on these forums. Just my opinion for what it's worth.

    I have no idea what rumors you are talking about, but I will say you really need to learn to play well with others.

    The people on this site are some of the most easy going, and knowledgeable people about hiking the AT you will ever talk with (notice I said "With" and not "At". All you need to do is take the chip off your shoulder and enjoy the conversation. Its really that easy.

    Maybe take a look at the reaction the "We all have to Eat" thread received and compare it to the hiking pole and trash burning threads. On one thread you came across as having a serious discussion. On the other two you came across as a troll. I will give you a serious answer to a non-troll thread.

    I suggested that the other thread (trash burning) wasn't getting anywhere and that the THREAD should be shut down - that's all but I am curious what you would like to achieve:

    your name suggests that you "wannabe" a thru-hiker meaning (we would assume) you'd like to learn something - - not just tell us what you think and start problems.

    I assumed you were running up your post count so you could post in the "selling gear" section.

    I tried telemarketing once in college

    Wasn't very successful at it

    Seems most folks don't like to refinance their mortgages over the phone about supper time

    Sawyer is looking for people to market The Sawyer In-Line Water Filter (SILWF). Maybe he can get that gig.

    The pay isn't good but you get to keep all the filtered water from dealer demos. That's a .50 a gallon discount right there.

    Perhaps that's your problem, you want WB to sink to the level of other "chatboards?" I can't imagine why we'd want to do that, nor that the moderators would let WB become so crude, rude, and unattractive.

    As a wise man once said: Let's keep it real.

    Tell you what - give us your user name and a couple of other "chatboards" you are on, and we'll go check out if this pattern of acting like a jackass and then whining about being a victim when people call you on it is something you always do, or whether it is just here.

    Just sayin'
    "Waning Gibbous" would be a great trail name.
