OK being a longtime lurker over at the other site saw this one and thought I would register. Maybe not so hostile of an environment to post in. That being said with the lightened mood over here can someone PLEASE fill me in on " THE CAT" thread from over there. Having missed it I feel like I missed out on a life changing event .

Hi TexasFarmBoy !
Long story - short ? Some people have no sense of humor when it comes to cats. APPARENTLY the abstract care of spare/pet cats is not to be joked about over there. We all learned that cleaning up an engine oil drenched cat IS NOT to be done with a match.
You could liken some posters sensibilities about cats to pokin' a snake with a stick and . . . well, I'll let the other guys tell you more about it.

I, for one, appreciate you posting a thread to a board that I'm BANNED from! LOL!!!! Why do you think we started this thing? Here's a joke you'll never hear on NAT without being smacked by the banstick; How do you make a cat go WOOF??? With lighter fluid and a match. ;D

Alrite... How come I can't give Sheep Herder an exalt for his comment in this thread? Actually... He should get 10 for that comment. Ahem TexasFarmBoy..... The plot thickened. From there on out it was typical of the brethren you associate with now on here. When someone whines and crys over a less then intelligent disgust.... and we feel no sympathy.... the teasing and taunting get worse.... To push them over the edge... So they soon learn and discover... It's just plum foolish to get so worked up and defensive over a feline..... as that was the topic at hand. So posts after new posts on new threads contained a few sarcastic additive writings taking jabs at cat lovers. Anyone with a sense of humor laughed it off as it was meant... The rest got hot under the collar as it was meant... Kinda funny as hell when you think about it that someone 1000's of miles away with a keyboard an royally piss off someone else making a snide comment about a damn worthless cat. At any rate..... Then a less then brilliant thread was started questioning the obvious about why cats were not a popularity contest winner... And I took the first swing. It went to complete hell from there and I wouldn't back off. Never have, why break away from originality now? I got booted. Few others did later. The supreme commanders of said elite site got ass chapped... (again.. funny as hell thinking about it. LOL)... and another vendetta ensued. Which leads us to today. Now having two ag boards. Each your familiar with the personality. 1 you can be comfortable and at ease. The other like walking on broken glass. Now, the question that deserves asking... How many thousands of people have LOL'd over the feather ruffling and kept quiet vs. the few that were vocal over their disgust? While the truth may never be known... I have my thoughts and I'm going to say that the numbers in this place and commentary that has taken place since introduction speak for themselves. At any rate.... I been wanting to do this for awhile now so here goes... Cats and Matches. MF, ears bleeding, .... Hey hey hey.. Looky looky... the world still spins and people still will talk to me. I'll be damned.... The world does not revolve around uptight jackpipes. Heh heh heh. Marland.. Did I run out of soapbox time or did I use up the 86.3 this go around?

With hindsight, I'd say that cat thread was probably the beginning of the decline for NAT. I think most people reacted in disbelief because .... well, how could a normal rational person get so worked up by a silly cat joke? Thanks to the guys who have done the work to start up and provide this site, where sanity prevails. More or less anyway!

Here was my last post. Of course they deleted the other one to get rid of the evidence that they favor some posters over others. That was the post where Marland got his banstick lashing . LOL talk.newagtalk.com/forums/thread-view.asp?tid=228254&posts=9#M1730098Its too bad also, I joined in 08 , that place was great for two years. You could joke and have alittle clean fun and no one got all bent out of shape. Then the last year it kinda went down the toilet. I mean when you got guys attacking people cause they post some clean joke about there homelife telling them they are wasting bandwidth space it is a sign that things are getting to uptight.
