I don't know what it is, but lately it seems that there are a number of folks out there that have nothing better to do than to inject their negative attitude.

I am not suggesting that we live in a smurfy world where everything is happy and gay (not that there is anything wrong with that ), but there have been a number of pissy add-on posts to a some perfectly legal, ethical pursuits of fish that, in my opinion, add no substance to the purpose of this board, sharing info.

There are threads about different opinions as to fish and game management, so I expect a spirited debate on those posts, but some folks like Chappy, MasterCaster and DriftBoater have nothing better to do than to derail a perfectly good post that is not political at all. Yeah, I consider you in the same boat.

As you tell, me, you feel that being direct is best, so I will not hide behind an e-mail or PM. I don't appreciate it when someone has almost nothing but negativity to bring to the board. You presence would not be missed by a majority of the folks here if you were to choose to leave and never post again. (Except it is kind of fun baggin' on poor misguided Chappy.) That is my opinion.

If you can't hunt well or catch fish consistently, don't get jealous when someone who does well posts. (Veiled jab at your inadequacy) I have a better idea the next time that happens, leave.
