I also will not disagree that most of them were due to the fact that I not only overstepped the boundaries but that I retaliated as well. I do however think that there are members here that have absolutely no forgiveness and on top of that they will beat you down again and again once you have made a mistake. The fact is that we all make mistakes and we all loose our tempers from time to time. Maybe there are some people who think it is ok to trash talk and belittle people for their own enjoyment. I know that you are not one of those people, and I am certainly not one. Hopefully as I become older and wiser I will not make as many mistakes but until then I am who I am. There are those here who seem to have been holding a grudge, as my first post was spat on immediately. It is my hope that the forum I am part of now will be different. I don't know if it will be better but it is my hope that what happended to me here will not happen there. It is a place for anyone of any age to come and talk about their passion. I will do my best to ensure that it does not become a stomping ground for the cigar smoking veterans to kick around the new guys simply because they make a few mistakes. Life is hard enough as it is without some trash talking jerk sitting behind a computer belittling others for their own pleasure. That's just my opinion.
