We also buried a loved one (our son) last week.
However, that's not how I took Clarkie's post. I assumed from the topic title that he was referring to his dog (we buried ours last year and he was a loved one, too).
I wasn't offended by the post and I think you fellas have gone a bit overboard on this thread.
well said Ron ;)
Spot on Ron...
Thank you
Lighter note to all the others
Now one might appologise for the original thread if it sent you on a wild goose chase, But one wont, as if you had of read the thread and read it like most do without bringing feeling or your own loss in then, there would not be an issue and argument. I feel for those who have lost loved ones. But i also can control my anger enough not to pop when i see a thread that can be taken in differnet way.
To be honest. Since i got banned i have taken a different veiw on the Forum... Its changing from what it was..... it used to be kind and respectful, but now its just one step of being a "overlander" or "4wdmonthly"
We need to stop the arguments and carrry on.
There is a time and a place for the mud fights.. and yes every so often a thread pops up and someone has a neg view or a belief that the other person is wrong. Express yourself, but there is no need to fire up and keep going at it.
Do a search on certain members and see how many of the comments they make are a Negative towards the previous post. Some are quite high.
Some say the Vic guys are bullies..... Well some of us had issues and its been sorted.... Quick phone call and an appologie from my end sorted it. So guys.. Do as Jesus did and Forgive, Drink and get nailed......
my sentiments exactly clarkie..Quote:

that is changing as of now.
there WILL BE INFRACTIONS HANDED OUT over this thread and any repeat of the behaviour will be dealt with in exactly the same manner.
G'day all,
After reading previous threads about Clarkie selling his beloved Landy :eek:, I pretty much new what the content of what this thread was going to be before I opened it.
I don't see topics labeled like this one as a problem or being in bad taste, everyone has different issues in their life at different times, read and accept post's the way they are meant to be read and don't take them as a personal attack on what may be going on in your own life.
I rarely put up many posts but I usualy check and read posts on a daily basis. Recently there has been a lot of negative replies to posts. Is it the weather at the moment, people spending too much time inside or just the way society is going.
Down here in tas we try to not worry about too much, we are all smiling and happy, because our weather has been better than up north this year :lol2: :tease:! (about the only year I can say this).
Be happy and keep smiling.
Cheers Andy :twobeers:
Meant to ask in another thread - why is the D3 going?Quote:

Was just looking into them).
I hope it can get back to that soon. I honestly miss it.
I just cannot comprehend the way some people carry on here and other internet forums. People wouldn't treat each other like that in real life so why do it when you think you have anonymity behind your computer?
The edit post button is gone. I'll just add this here then.
If you were sitting around the campfire and the conversation turned to something that didn't interest you either because you knew about it already or you just plain didn't like it then would you abuse everyone? I hope not. I'd hope you would just sit patiently for your turn or move to another group.
As I asked before, why is it any different on the internet?
