Not at all Billy... Not at all!

I'm just surprised there was no response at all, like, "I don't know, but I can try to find out", from ANYONE!

I realize the phrase "they can edit a post" was directed at you and I know you have rules to follow. I completely understand your edit and don't have a problem with THAT at all.

I'm just amazed that there isn't a thread created by FS posted in each section at least trying to address the issues. I know they can't respond to every email that I'm sure they are being flooded with, nor would it be realistic of me to assume that they'd call me personally, but from a management perspective, it sure would make sense, given the number of posts per hour on Northwest General Information alone, they would post a thread with SOME information on it!

I do apologize if you think I'm displeased with you personally. I've always appreciated the work the volunteers do (except for Capt. Gary :lol: ). If you look at what I typed another way, let me add to it: If the moderators are so adept and prompt in their volunteer service, you'd think they'd utilize them to update the FS member base as to what's going on.

I've got no problem with you at all Billy. As I've said, YOUR edit of my post was completely understood! My fault, 100%.

My mistake, I know, and I really didn't think about my post before I submitted it but you'd think they'd at least TRY to answer a question, JUST ONE as quickly as they can edit a post!
So, you think the volunteer moderators, have to the answers about why and what the FS administrators have decided to do? Gotcha. :thumbup:
He asked a legitimate question. You answer like a smart a**. Gotcha :thumbup:

He never contacted me directly. I do have a job. Comparing me moderating a thread, and him asking the FS brass for an answer, just don't compute. He and I know each other. I'm sure he appreciated you having his back though.

Well, you guys are welcome to stay. I had one of my favorite forums that has over 500,000 users switch to that software and it's horrible. Over half the folks left after the switch because they hated it.

The Florida Sportsman Forums are down for maintenance. We are current repairing the issue that was causing several posts from the past few months to disappear. Sorry for the inconvenience; service will be restored soon.

I missed this post earlier! That was just plain dumb on their part. I can only imagine how much fun you have been having!

My skin is thick. I just got tired of clicking to see if it was working yet. It wasn't anything personal, just got tired of it, is all.

When things don't get done the way I WOULD DO THEM, they're just done WRONG! :lol:

:thumbup: :thumbup:

Now, I've got to get outside and rig the console to get the Furuno and the Raymarine INTO the console instead of on top of it, order some lexan, and practice bending an old piece of lexan!!!

Fall fishing is coming soon!!!!

GAME ON!!!!!

Last time FS gave themselves a major case of the hiccups I registered here. I was on AOL and the AOL service just wouldn't jive with this forum. It's easy to get stuck only visiting one or two forums and maybe Facebook. Since I got internet through Alltel I figured I'd try it again. My internet coverage is much faster now so I'm hoping it works. I always liked FS because I personally knew almost all of the folks in NW. I've been looking back through and seems BB Fishing still has a whole lot of folks I know too.

Guess I'll barge back in and make my opinions know... :-D :smt006
