First of all, I would like to give a great big,
THANK YOU to Mr. Ivan Campos.
There have been problems in the past in this Forum as regulars know, and they get dealt with in the manner they are delivered. I will not be talked down to, and I won't allow silliness to be the norm here.
I do this for fun, it is not a "job."
This is a very funny topic. The market dictates the price.
Period.
Mark, I do not want to see "Mr.44" banned from BladeForums.Com, however, I would prefer he stay the hell away from this Forum if he has nothing positive to add.
If it continues, and all he has to add from time to time is derision, I will delete them.
I detest being heavy-handed, after all, his post above is still there, isn't it?
Yet I am not going to tolerate a bunch of nonsense. He can drop nonsense in the lap of another and if the other party wishes to tolerate it, fine.
This JSP Forum is a very interesting place, and I have tried to expand the depth it has to offer by adding a tad bit of
History on the Evolution of "Tactical" or "Covert" Weaponry.
Unfortunately, not many people posted to it and I have no idea whatsoever how many people lurked and read it.
This Forum, because of the nature of the products, can discuss historical combatives and weapons, we can discuss tactics and self-defense...we can discuss these things because the products themselves are designed to save your life.
If you wish to come here and discuss [start a Thread, etc.] a topic like, "Folder vs. Fixed Blade," we can do that. James does not make folders...but it is a valid discussion to have. I have folders, and I have went to great lengths to explain them and defend them to some folks.
You can talk about alot in here...feel free.
But don't come in to drop clusterbombs and hit the afterburners on the exit. I will tag you.
