Ketchup, I've never been a member over there but maybe we should sign up at the same time and have a race to see who gets banned first. I imagine a lot of OA members would stack their money on me. LOL

I was thinking I would do the same thing! I bet 3 posts and I'm out!?

If you're a lure maker or tinkerer, like me, Tackle Underground seems to be a good source. I've only visited it a few times, but got some great info. Saved me a ton of time and money. Thanks for turning me on to it TrophyfshR

Ketchup bought those rods from me on Sunday. True story. 

Its rare that I meet somebody & immediately have a serious life conversation. Dudes a genuine down to earth guy, I felt like I made a friend on Sunday after about 5 minutes. It really made me feel good that he was donating my dad's rods to those kids. I actually thought about it today while I was standing in academy looking at fishing line & thinking about my own son.

Those guys over at BBC need to quit banging on their keyboards & acting like petulant children. I'm yet to meet a bad person from OAF in real life. God has a way of putting the right people in your life at the right time. This was one of those times. 

Thanks for the kind words Trophy. You are right in that the guys here are true gentlemen. Im honored to be able to help every now and again, youngsters that need it. Thanks for the great deals on the combos. 

In all walks of life, there are those that poke their chests out more than needed, and those arm chair fishermen over there do just that. If being banned is a rarity, then i guess im one in an uncrowded group. Ol' Wrench and i, along with Champ may just have to make that group less uncrowded. "Ketchup's Back".  Yea i like that screen name.

You guys/girls are all awesome.  As most know, I use my real name.  This really is the only site I am a member of.  This and select YouTube channels.  Thanks for not being the people who are being discussed.

It happens all too often in the boat, and especially motor forums, too. Lot of whizzing over an extra mph, my boat's better than yours, my boat color is better than yours...on and on.

I pop in to look at some of the tackle sales, custom rod pics, and if I break something weird. Otherwise, I'll pass.

try being a Nitro owner.....lol

I don't think it's a rarity. More like a steady stream. I've been on BBC since 2005 and there have been a LOT of bannings. The trouble with these sites is that someone has to ride herd or they just descend into chaos. I've seen it done here on OAF several times but it's always been by members that care and with finesse rather than the hammer approach employed by BBC. However, BBC has over 100K members which greatly ups the percentage of knucklehead participation. That said, your banning was silly and should have never happened.

When I had my 520 for sale I listed it on BBC.  I had five different guys contact me with "serious"inquiries that made appointments to come take a look.  Coming from Mississippi, St. Louis, Tulsa and Kansas City (2).

ZERO showed up.  Told me all I needed to know.  

Needless to say, I wasted a lot of hours getting the boat out of storage, prepping it for their visit and just hanging around waiting for them to never appear.  I called each one of them a couple of times trying to find out if there was a problem or is they were still coming.  Got nothing but voicemail recordings.  

Not a single one ever called me back.

Otherwise, I've not spent any significant time on other areas of their deal as I also found it confusing to navigate and was scared off by some of the "conversations" that I did happen to read.

I'm staying here where at least if I get criticized I feel like I'm getting scolded by "family".

Funny... I had to go see who is on OA's banned list... here they are.

Recognize anyone?  Probably not.

I've had a few asked that their accounts be deleted.  They aren't on this list.
