Has there ever been a mass shooting at a gun show?

Our apologies, we do not intend to annoy, we are just trying to make this forum a more inviting place for members and guests to read and participate.

Out of curiosity, what's the difference between moving entire threads (rather than splitting out individual posts that more appropriately belong in the Ring and leaving ones that are fine for the Courthouse) and just locking the whole Courthouse or merging it with the Ring so that topics aren't visible to guests?

The difference is you have to read in two places to get the entire conversation.

Alternatively, if people want their POV easily read, they can keep it intelligent and relevant. What a concept!

Gee, it might have been cool if there was more of a directional difference between the courthouse and the ring...that people agreed upon.

Mods made it clear, no consequence, self regulation, but no incentive to do so. This is like raising a kid with no rules.

Except we are not kids. We are supposedly competent adults. Come on, you know where the line is.

Not so sure about that anymore chickaree.....the line keeps moving.

It only seems that way if you are trying to get your tippy toes right up to the edge of it.

Seems to me more like you stay in one spot, and one day the line is far in front of you, but the next day you have crossed the line but you never moved.

It's not a big deal chickaree, just an observation, apparently we are now a more moderated board.....and if that is what the posters want, OK.

Well, wait a minute. A couple posters made claims about the tone of the posting here, that it was driving business away and we were losing good posters, that was pretty much debunked, but we got heavier moderation anyway....go figure.

Maybe VL is right, we are gradually becoming the board that many of the original posters left........it will be interesting to see how that all works out.
