No one wants anyone here to feel unwelcome. I do care about the appearance we give here at the forum, especially to legitimate members. If I didn't, I wouldn't keep responding to this thread...
As CT just hinted at, I don't know if all the topics covered by Jeff Z was something to be thrown into the very first message. I don't think many members here realize the various issues admins have to deal with here. We get some "interesting" stuff being posted sometimes. When this type of stuff comes up on someone's very first post, it warrants attention even more sometimes.
And, when something is way out of whack, we typically delete the message and deal with the person accordingly. We believe in free speech, but we all know the sort I am referring to.
Anyway, my point is that the remnants of such people are usually not left around. So, the number of these incidents are not always apparent, as things are often dealt with behind the scenes.
I'm not calling Jeff Z a troublemaker - don't misunderstand. Far from it!! However, every forum I am a member of shies away from any "conversion" topics, typically. And, rule #4 in the Forum Rules specifically deals with this issue.
One thing I like is that this forum is policed by its own members. Before I even notice certain posts, I get a PM from a member, or two, or more... They know the topics that shouldn't be discussed. And, quite often, they are more cautious than I would be.
I get requests from members here a lot, when such a topic comes up - they want me to end that line of topic, or to at least try to let the person know that a certain topic is getting in the gray area...
There is a lot of concern on the part of PS90 owners here that the ATF could change their mind about allowing the weapon to be in civilian hands. So, questions about messing with the trigger packs, or about some of the issues I mentioned above in my previous responses on this thread draw the attention of many of the regulars here.
It was notification by several members here that made me come check this thread out to begin with. I am sorry that someone is upset. Maybe the wording of many posts here (by various posters, myself included possibly) could have been better. I did prev state that as long as that topic was not discussed, however, we welcomed you here, and could help you with your other questions. I think that was a fair response on my part.
Jeff Z is welcome to remain a part of this forum, and I'd like to see his participation. I don't like it when a legitimate member gets upset at the forum, if its something I can control.
