C64,
You have made some good points, and you "know" I have respect for you, the mere thought of this thread is somewhat defensive/offensive in nature just as TD's posts in regards to Jenifer and her boyfriend. I have always been about being positive, in approach, considerate of others, and constructive with thought and content that's relevant to topic. I don't see any of this other than a way of forcing TD to behave a certain way on the public forum by pointing it out in a "call you out manner" that is offensive in nature and elicits a predetermined negative reaction to point out fault in his approach and I would expect a negative response.
I too have been at fault for this and have seen that it is not positive, considerate or constructive, I have changed. I had a very nice visit from TD and his wife, a few days back and there is better understanding between us because of it. Thank you TD "John" for lending an ear and sharing your thoughts I apreciate it!
The perception that the FS is not doing their job is viable, and the reasoning to jump to such perceptions is completely understandable by me and by others besides TD. His perception of why they manage the land and the reasoning of the FS' actions and considerations towards him would cause "Jari Kari" in just about anyone if truth were understood by all. This, is what is irritating TD, and to all concerned including myself. How each of us go about dealing with such frustrations should come from a positive, considerate, relevant and constructive perspective that is selfless second only to what is considered best for all concerned. The thoughts and feelings shouldn't be directed towards any one person or group,they should be directed to the issue of concern. My concern is with the situation itself and the fact that I see no reason why it should even exist.
The WWW provides loud voice to thought, and others who hear and consider such a voice, without, weighing consideration fairly of the actual strength of that voice, as it should be factored with the number of voices of concern it's "pooled with" is not giving that voice fair consideration, I have also done this in the past as well, but no more for me.
Should TD be able to use the MTBR forum, yes, as long as the topic is relevant to what MTBR intended the forum's use to be for and about; and as long as the intent of topic is not malicious, or conflicts with the intended purpose of the forum.
TD is a very loud voice that "forsake the approach" is one of very many, that have resonable concern. TD is however very passionate, knowledgeable, and worthy of more consideration as his opinion is shared by many, but his approach and methods could be better.
All I hope for is that I may be a fair example in which he and others may follow for the betterment of forum discussion.
Thank you for your time and consideration C64 and others, it's appreciated! :thumbsup:
