Never having been locked even ONCE in 6 years, I don’t even know who to talk to 
Nobody has contacted me so far as to WHY either.
You’ll get an email. I did.
Grant:
“If you read the locked thread in this forum, it is my opinion that Juan got upset by what some of the members on here said and thought it was a good idea to take it out on me (as he couldn’t go after them).”
At first I thought you were talking about the thread last night where someone pointed out the thread on TOS and we all started talking about this dirty laundry business.
Now I see it was because of the business practices thread. I participated in that one and I’m sorry that I helped it go to the point Juan felt so threatened.
Roger that. Since I know you are reading this Juan, how about some comms?
Edit: This isn’t the topic, nor the place for me to vent about the actions of another site’s owner. Sorry guys, won’t happen again. 
Boom, sorry to hear about your falling out.
There are a lot of forums that end up…shadows of their former selves…
They become glorifed “infomercials” with sychophant audiences…
and telling fairytales to sell the products…
The result sooner or later is ‘new startups’…by the disaffected…who have good reason to be so…
Sometimes they are better sometimes they are not…
I’d bet money this place is going to do alright…
As long as it doesn’t sacrifice quality for size…
imo
Deleted.
People get banned over there for saying what I could say. You’re darn right I’m being obtuse.
Did you see who Juan, Ed and Beekeeper personally and directly responded to though? Me, that’s right me. Because they know that at any given moment I can choose to ask all the right questions about this little scandal and others.
I’ve been a personal friend of Grant and Roxanne for years now and know stuff about this drama from way back in 2002. This e-mail is not the first of Grant’s problems with ARFCOM you know…
I could UNLOAD on Juan and be instantly banned, have my post deleted and the thread locked. That solves nothing. This way I’m still on over there and can keep an eye out for more of these discrediting threads, get in there and stir the pot again.
This is Boom’s thread but if this banter keeps up I’ll lock and trash it and he can open another one when he’s ready
You don’t have to act that way over here and you don’t have to do it disrepectfully. If you don’t agree then say so but I don’t want to see this forum acting like a bunch of…well I think you know who.
I said it in the other thread BUT it looks like I have to say it again: look around at the Industry Partners, manufactures and dealers here. That should give you an indication into what type of forum this COULD be. If we act ‘that’ way it will be no better than the other place and then where will we go?
Roger that, M4arc.
Griz, like you I am not HSLD but just a student and a worker who happens to love ARs.
Anyways, it looks like a lot of people are waiting on this thread.

Well, add me to the list of lockees. No email, no nothing. How sad.
I made a new thread on this matter. Marc you can lock this one anytime you wish. Sorry for causing you any trouble.
That’s alright Boom, I know you’ve been thinking about how to get this off your chest.
All - There’s no need to continue this thread as boom has started another one.
