My $0.02

Post by Jimmy_1 »

I have to say it.

Why is it that people on here are SO quick to attack?
When somebody posts something and it isn't agreed with they ney-sayers are so quick with the damnation.

Secondly, if things are of a private nature why are the PM's and such spilling over into the forum's?

Since I have joined FH I have had people call my house...I have been asked to meet for a fist fight, asked to join sides in arguments etc.

For the love of Pete! This is a recreational site for amateur fisherpeople to come and share tips, advice, spots etc.

Not for jealousy, bravado and all the other BS.

Stop ruining it for other people, and stop trashing others accomplishments!

We can't all catch lunkers all the time. This is really turning alot of folks off and it just shows how childish some are.

Ahhh..You don't know what your talking about Joco...or maybe we don't know what you are talking about :lol:

Sorry just felt like we needed some humour today...But I do agree we all need to have some more fun in our lives cause you never know. Life is too short to be grumpy all the time. The Big Big guy has a date set with all of us but he keeps that to himself so lets all just get along huh.

Quite unbelievable what the average weekend angler has to go through on these internet sites.

Now can you imagine what those of us making a living from fishing have to go through?

Some people have nothing to look forward too in life and they would rather spend their time trying to make others misirable.

I'm a strong believer in what goes around comes around, these sad people will get what's coming to them sooner or later.
Catch and release them all

I would like to had something.

it is a public site.

so what is been said here..can be view by a load off person. and cant attack a personal realy personaly.

so wen you say something you have to be ready to take everything that come wit it...take responsibilty.


so if somebody dont want troble..just have to be quiet.

but sometime people have to talk to say the truth and the truth as to be said.

plain and simple.


but some bashing in here...should not have happen in here.

some were to personal.

its a fishing site...not..gerry springer show.

I have to say that in most cases if people didn't buy into it and start replying, it would just go away. The more fuel that gets thrown into the fire the bigger it gets and the people that start it are just sitting behind their monitors having a blast.

Next time just try saying nothing and before you know it the post is gone.

Ya it's that simple :wink:

I agree, people should be more considerate of others feelings etc.

For the most part people have been nice to me even when I post pathetic reports of catching rockbass! and tiny little micro-fish which don't even weigh 1/8th of a pound!

This is a nice place.......So to the few ignorant ones, be NICE! And lets have FUN!
