In a previous post I was PM'd by a AGN member and accused of not respecting America because of the lower case "A" in Aoa. That lower Case "A" should have been cap'd but for Arizona not America. The Subject Line I couldn't change but I edited the rest to AoA. It's Air guns of Arizona not America. To those of you from Arizona I apologize. Was this error enough to chastise me? Bill

This is so ridiculous, it’s funny 😄 . Do you think the offended offender was possibly inebriated?

You cant carry your feelings on your shoulder here are anywhere else , Tit for tat, Just go on and enjoy your airguns,,
Example, I complained about a small company charging 25 % restocking, I was called everything under the sun because they supported a air gun site, Just fluff it off, There are air gun nuts and there are air gun NUTS,

Some people are just dingle berries. I at one time had my avatar as a meme that pictured ralphie from Xmas story opening his red Ryder but of course it was changed to an ar 15. The caption on the meme said “cool an ar 15 signed by Kyle “ and some DA got offended. Just ignore them. Not only the PM but use the ignore function.

I’m on the forum mostly on my phone, and we all know how phones are. Errors and autocorrect. I have to correct grammar in reports at my job, I’m not doing it here for free. While I’m a lowly public servant, I doubt AGN will pay me my overtime rate for the service. 😂
I’ve read the AGN rules, perfect grammar wasn’t in there.
I’d direct them to the English Club Forum, they could help so many people.

They wouldnt have liked my response had they been foolish enough to do that with me. Especially in PM lol.

Sorry many of us skip punctuation or capitalization online, especially when using phones.

I'm grieved with how this republic is and its not worthy of much respect, if any. but thats a discussion for another time.

Some are just looking to be offended or differ to be offended over things. Especially online. Its rather sad tbh.

Its sad isnt it?

For instance last thursday I returned a call to my boss. He answered. Then I asked him a question. His response was We'll talk about it later click. It was rather abrupt. I had two choices, be highly offended, or figure he was busy or in the middle of something. I chose the latter. It turned out the person I was asking about was right next to him and he had me on speakerphone. Had I opted to be offended like a snowflake would have, it could have gotten ugly for the wrong reasons.

It was well warranted. Any disrespect to any city in America should be cause for castration at a minimum. A county? Well... that thar should get you drawn and quartered.

But to disrespect a whole state???? And by doing so in the most grievous manner imaginable.. by not capitalizing! Well, sir. That's cause for not only punishment to you, but for at least 4 generations of your offspring.

:p

There has always been 'personalities' on the forums, but I swear it seems that the Wuflu brought out the worst in folks and I noted a significant increase in the amount of petty BS on the forum since then. I suppose many are either still feeling the effects of that lock down or just have acclimated to a heightened sense of pettiness.

Imagine living an existence where patrolling air gun posts for possible grammatical errors or “non patriotic” content is a priority lol

I’ve attached something you can send them next time…
