McCandless Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Now that Father Kit 'Cool Gun' Garth has been driven away... where are all the Saloonatic posts that were supposed to take place? You know, the stuff that was 'hampered' by his cartoon posts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackwater 53393 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Guess it depends on your point of view. Not saying that it’s better or worse, but I DO see a few more names attached to posts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until someone said something, I didn't notice that his posts had become less prolific. Do I need to be clued in? Or is it better to just not ask questions?

Pat Riot Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 Yeah, amazing how that works... To me it’s what I call “Trailer Park” mentality. Ya got people that just aren’t real happy so they think everyone else should be unhappy so they raise a ruckus until they get their way and then once the drama is over they go back to being how they were before because their cheap entertainment is over. Oh, and if this makes you angry, I really don’t care. Suck it up, buttercup. Sometimes the truth is...well, the truth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Original Lumpy Gritz Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 What was done to 'Kit', was nothing short of bullying from a bunch of punks It was truly a low point in the history of this forum. OLG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smoky Pistols Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I'd bring him back--I didn't always have an interest in all his posts, but I'd defend to the death his right to post them! It's kind of funny that a group of folks so high and mightily defend their Second Amendment rights while trying to squelch someone else's First Amendment rights.

Smuteye John SASS#24774 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 If you don't like what a feller's posting, then just don't read threads that he starts. I do believe we have an 'ignore' function on this incarnation of the forums. You put somebody on your ignore list and you never have to see anything they post ever again if you don't over ride it. It ain't that hard to just skip and ignore a poster. I do it all the time and been doin' it- in the Saloon and on the WIRE since before the Saloon was invented- since the '90's. Playing internet ninja to bully somebody ain't right. There's supposed to be a bunch of grown folks around here, how's about folks act like it? Once upon a time in these parts, folks would have spoke up and call folks out for even trying such foolishness. (I'd like to thank Jonah Hex, Flint Westwood, Black Harris and Nubbins Colt for their tutelage in preparing me to play the resident crusty old curmudgeon- even if I still ain't old enough to officially qualify as such.)

Yul Lose Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I was truly looking forward to being schooled by the old time saloonatics that would show us how a Wire Saloon should be run and all we got were crickets. At least Father Kit was a SASS member who was truly trying to promote our sport. I rarely looked at his cartoons because those aren’t my cup of tea but it was really easy to scroll right over them, imagine that!! Welcoming new members was such a bad thing that it’s not done anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nasty Newt # 7365 Posted August 20, 2018 Share Posted August 20, 2018 I had long since quit looking at his stuff because I knew it wouldn't interest me. But I didn't mind if he did it. As has been said many times, just don't look at it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might hit the place a couple times a day for a week and then might not even stick my head in at all for a couple weeks- it depends on how work goes and what else I have on my plate. By the time I saw the thread on his leaving, it was all over and been over a couple days. No sense in beating a dead horse or trying to undo a dog-piling that was done and over with.

I "ignored" one person that tried to dredge up political and social conflict in every little nitpicky thing. I wouldn't see posts he made but would see them when someone quoted some of drivel. Fortunately, he's gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
