...just suck  So I'd been trying to create more links to this site from other sites, and innocently enough I came across a site that said " send us an email if you'd like your site added' so sure enough I did. And I get some snotty-ass response to the effect of "not interested in linking to another lure message board" since he had his own. You would think somone might welcome some cross-traffic between both sites, but I guess since he thinks his is better (granted, it gets a lot of posts) it's beneath him to do so.  I could see his point, but now I have a mission: to create a better and bigger board than his.  And if that means bringing other lure fans on board, then so be it. The focus of this board will be and always will be Rapala. But some diversity certainly couldn't hurt either. I also noticed my post on his board was also deleted /end rant |

And look at all the "rules" this guy has: __________________________________________
What is considered appropriate for this board?
This bulletin board is for the discussion of topics related to collecting antique fishing tackle only. Messages that are not relevant to that general area will be deleted. Messages should also be of a nature that is of interest to the general collecting community.
What is considered inappropriate for this board?
The board is about antique fishing lures and tackle. Anything not related to this topic is not appropriate.
It is expected that everyone who uses this board will behave in a polite manner and be respectful of others who use the board. Abusive, obscene, or threatening language is not appropriate and will not be tolerated.
This board is not intended as a "one on one" communication medium. That is what e-mail or the telephone is for. If you have problems with or criticism of another person, this is not the place to air your laundry. Please take it somewhere else.
Posts about hunting, guns, bullets, bows & arrows, dead animals, etc. are not appropriate and not welcome.
Posts of a commercial nature are not appropriate for this board. Please do not advertise your business or products or services provided by your business.
Ebay advertisements and links are not appropriate.
Repainted lures and reproduction lures are harmful to the collecting hobby and are not appropriate for the message board. Per the policies of a couple of the lure collector clubs that I belong to, reproductions are defined as: items that are made by someone other than the original maker of the item and are intended to appear identical, nearly identical, or extremely similar to the original item. An exception is made for commercially manufactured items that are produced and distributed by companies who have legal trademark and/or patent rights to produce and distribute such products.
I am an avid fisherman, but this is not a fishing message board and fishing posts that are not related to antique fishing tackle will be deleted. If I let you post pictures of your catch I have to let everyone else post pictures of their catch. At that point it is no longer a message board about antique fishing tackle and that is not going to happen.
Inappropriate messages will be deleted from this board. Repeat offenders will be banned from using the board.
Why did I get an "Inappropriate Message Warning"?
You received this warning because you tried to post something that was not appropriate for this message board. This most often happens when people attempt to post messages containing cuss words or obscenities. Please keep in mind that many other people, including children, use this board. If you want to say something that is not very nice, please say it somewhere else.
Why is "ebay" not appropriate here?
Ebay conversation is not appropriate for this board and will be deleted. I have nothing against Ebay. I have bought and sold there many times in the past and will likely do so again in the future. There are many reasons why Ebay messages are not allowed here. These are just a few of them:
* They contain "dated" information. As such, they consume board space & increase maintenance
* The board is intended to facilitate exchanges on the board rather than off the board * Ebay ads are boring
* I don't really care to spend money providing this board in order to support Ebay's business
Why did I get a "You have been banned" message?
Your IP address has been banned from posting on the board. That usually happens because you did something bad and I don't want you posting on the board anymore. It might have happened because you attempted to post to the board using an anonymous proxy server. My experience is that most people who access this board from anonymous proxy servers come here with bad intentions so I will ban everyone I can identify.
Can I put HTML tags anywhere in my posts?
No. You can not use HTML tags in any field except the body of the message.
Please guys seriously - if I ever institute such douchebaggery on this site, let me know. The rules here are minimal...come to think of it, I don't really have any.  |

Ironic update on this, btw...one of the members here had won the Rapala lure giveaway for the month of May...after he got them he told me that he'd let everybody over there know what a great Rapala resource this place was....
Well wouldn't you know it, he went ahead and deleted that post...

Wow that guy sounds like a real tight ass, he says he's an avid fisherman.... but then its followed by "Any posts about fishing would be deleted"  I think he enjoys being the most powerful man on that forum, with all of those rules and everything.  |

I'm tempted to give out the site...lol....just to see how quickly one's post about RapalaNation.com would get deleted... I mean seriously...I would hate to have all sorts of stupid rules like that...all I care about is that everyone treats each other here with respect, and doesn't post anything here that isn't safe for work. |

I have written a painful critique of the individual and the message board that goes by his name...
The guy is a complete asshole. in fact, Asshole doesn't even cut it because an asshole knows hes and asshole.... The guy we are all talking about doesn't even understand how much people hate his ass - and worse yet would believe you if you told him.
I flamed him on my Blog and he also knows that I despise him.
Much like what happened to Ted over there I have been banned. Only because I am a true collector and willing to share my knowledge and my website with fellow collectors - But if that Shit bag on the other board feels that you are a threat he bans you.
Keep in mind that "being a threat" means that you have knowledge that you are willing to share.
God forbid someone would like your site and try to mention it "over there" he deletes anything that doesnt involve him.
A complete ASSHOLE!
and I am glad others see it and I am glad that I can say so here!
Thanks Ted!
I will attempt to find my original blog posting and throw it here.
You'll laugh your balls off.

Don't get me wrong, its actually a great BST board, you can find some good stuff if you act quickly - but the forum layout and all the lame rules is a joke.

Google MAP this:
6807 Castlegate Drive, Charlotte, NC.
Then hit "street view" Shitty fuckin house. maybe he should invest more in painting his dump than in his message board... But I guess that explains his crappy-ass no-format message board where all the ass-kissers hang out.
Bunch of self-serving dickheads who would run over a pregnant woman to get to a 40 dollar lure.
