You know, Ii don't know bankwalker, don't know what exactly your tone was on your comment since the internet is one dimensional. But are you saying those of us who don't lie to our children or don't fill them will false rose colored glasses of the world are bad parents?? I for one giie my children alot of love, and the majority of my time (hence cutting down my fishing). I don't sshelter them from all thaat's bad, but show them what's good. But I DON'T read a BB and then try to explain to my children if they read something over my shoulder (which Ii do most of my coomputer time when kids are in bed or playing in their room) by telling them that my co-members are crude when they are probably friends I fish with. I would've apologiized to my daughter for lletting her see it (which wouldn't be much since I always seem to sense when they are there) because it was my mistake. Not teh boardmembers who wrote it.

Here's how I see it. You can only post if you're a registered user. Bob has final say on what stays or goes. Complain to him. If he says it's ok, then it's not offensive. This is not a "public" forum. You can openly voice your opinions in a "public" forum. You don't have to register, or get your account yanked if you're iin a public forum. We're all "members" of Piscatorial Pursuits that Bob has graciously kept running for us with the freedoms he has let us convey on our posts. He owns iit, so what he says goes. If he shuts down the BB tomorrow, all the emails in the world won't bring it back if he doesn't want it going. Now a public area that is being shut down, enough noise and things get done. This is a PRIVATE site owned by Bob that he lets us VISIT. We may post here, but what he says goes. Plain and simple. Now, if it was a .org or .gov then I'd have a problem.

Ok, off my soapbox, I'm going to bed.

Hey RT, shouldn't you be out chasing Emu's or ssomething??? laugh
