^^ second that. Ray is a top bloke.

If the post was locked and the tank sold, why not just leave it forgotten instead of putting a winging post up about it?

I joined this forum because I love fish. For a "fish" forum, there sure is a whole lot of bickering that generally has nothing to do with fish!

Everybody just take a deep breath and post some nice photos of your fish/aquariums or something fish related at least.

It is nice for people to edit their posts letting other forum users know that the tank has been sold so I don't get PM's about it anymore.... God some people are so narrow minded...

I had the same problem awhile back just PM'd Bowdy he informed me of 60 day lock told me how to unlock it and even unlocked it for me from memory.. And I wouldn't say another brick in the wall maybe the garden though lol

Ok maybe I should have taken other avenues in the approach of my post being locked...

BUT, it dosen't excuse the fact that Bowdy keeps getting away with insulting people... I understand that we have a three strike system on here.. Pretty sure he has breached that... He must know someone high up, hahahahah

me tooo... didnt think anybody was ever gonna buy that friggin tank etc..... musta been a crappy unwanted setup or the price was too high!!!

im gonna ask mods if there can be a new rule inserted... max of 5 bumps in a 60 day period..... doesnt stop you editing it a 100 times in 60 days though...

i would be a ruthless moderator... fair but ruthless just the same....

[Gareth]

Or maybe it wat too complex of a system for average Joe to keep....?

[Bickley]

Is that why you were selling it Gareth lol

[Gareth]

Nope, I sold it because i'm moving to Cairns next yr and didnt want to transport it...
So more fool u mate...

Geez there's been some feistiness on this forum lately...
I remember when I was in the army, once a year, we would get a boxing ring brought into the gym with a referee and have a series of 3 round grudge matches between battalion members who had issues throughout the year.... Generally it was a just 30 second display in haymaking. No boxing background and lots of adrenaline made those gloves pretty heavy pretty quickly!!

I'm a bad member, I've never been to a meeting and have only met a few of you through classifieds transactions....but I could be tempted....

I think Bowdy was having a bad night. That was out of character in my experience.

My experience in PCS is that everyone is much nicer in person than on the boards.

If you go to a PCS meeting, you could be wondering if you are in the right place as everyone is pretty friendly. Also, when you can see someone's face and hear tone of voice there is much less of a tendency to misconstrue what is said or take it the wrong way.


What's the navy got in Cairns, Gareth?

[Pat]

Very true..
I wouldn't want to box anyone I have met so far.
My experiences online and in person have always been very positive. One of the main reasons I became a member was the help and advice I received when I started up.
I love jumping on here and having a look every night.

Moving to Cairns for a bit of change (Patrol Boats) opposed to War ships, always loved the ocean, so I want to explore the Barrier reef too

[Westie]

i like that show lol
best of luck mate

[Kleinz]

Cairns should be a pretty nice place to be for a while, particularly if they house you. Tropical waters and smaller boats= better IMO

Give Lisa McCune one for me.
