HJ has moved 25 old gun listings, including one of mine that was sold--to the top! This occurred around midnight. Joe--if you feel the need to see your name in posts on this site--please STAY OUT OF MY POSTS. You are a nut case!
Joe is an asset to this site. He puts a little spice in our lives and does no damage. I for one rarely miss reading his posts. He can be a little nasty on occasion but usually funny and he has been known to be helpful also.
He didn't like a certain item that was for sale so he tried to bury it.
I moved the double guns up.....
The for sale section has turned into a junk wanted section.
http://www.doublegunshop.com/forums/ubbt...ge=2#Post145698Billy....You never stated that your gun sold...did you send Dave 10 bucks ?
i was going to list wonderful polytech 7,62x39 with 30rd clip and big drum mag just to tee him off. this is quality weapon on par with ole' yugo m-76 they imported years ago.
Hey Joe- besides being the resident P.I.T.A. guy here, did Dave also make you his collection agency. Had to sound heavy-handed, but exactly why is it your concern if someone other that yourself sells, or for that matter, buys an item on Dave's website? Isn't that matter more or less private between Dave Weber between the seller-buyer-buyee?? I take your posts like I do Frank's red hot sauce or Tabasco when I'm having a big ol' country breakfast-little goes a long long way. RWTF
"DoubleGuns for sale and wanted by individuals only...
No Handguns, bolt-guns, Pump-guns...etc. Only break open multi-barrel sporting guns. No paramilitary firearms or other non-doublegun items allowed."
fOxey did you ever send Dave 10 bucks for the junk parts you listed ?
Dave might need to start charging folks on the front end.
He might need to boot at least one person off from the back end, also. Seems to be some third party manipulation of his board going on. Hope he plays the Hank William's version of "Mind you own business" while he does that.
Best,
Ted
"No Handguns, bolt-guns, Pump-guns...etc. Only break open multi-barrel sporting guns. No paramilitary firearms or other non-doublegun items allowed."
Get over yourself!
Joe you really are annoying, I skip all your posts but keep off manipulating others posts, you are not the moderator. Just and old busy body with nothing else to do, kind of sad.
Jeff G.
So many people have got him block he just doesn't get the attention to his inane postings anymore. This was all just an attention getting device, if you'll all drop it we'll be better off. You're just feeding into Joe's complex with more comments.
Destry
Well, jOe certainly is busy...His method may not be popular, but his logic is sound. He is no more out of line than the people who keep lisitng things on the board that the guidelines prohibit. It is what it is.....And it appears to me that the folks who complain the loudest are the same people that violate the spirit of the forum.....Just my opinion (not humble)
Seem a lot of guys take advantage of Dave's good nature.....
If a guy needs or has a screw or a butt plate for gun it doesn't need to be cluttering up the for sale section.
HJ has a point...I looked at the previous posts and most had nothing to do with double guns.
Looks like this site has turned into "Hopeless Joe's Doublegun BBS"!
Manipulating the for sale section for his own amusement is at the least intolerable, but mainly 'jes plain bullsh*t.
Ken Nelson
Me thinks Dave is a big boy all his own! If he wanted to clean out "THE JUNK" i'm sure Dave has a delete button to eradicate the post. Wish he'd use it on homey jOe!
Dave once conducted a poll of sorts about whether we wanted the reply feature on the 'For Sale' forum, so I presume it is something that can be done away with. I for one have never liked it. I believe we've now proven to one another that the public reply feature there is a negative.
I hope Dave will take notice of this foolishnes and change the format of the 'For Sale' section of this site. Respectfully...Geo
If Dave is a big boy don't you think he would eradicate HJ if he wanted to?
I think HJ is way off the mark on this. None of your biz Joe.
That being said, HJ's presentation is quite course, sometimes down right offensive, some if not most of the time but seems his ideas and or opinions are usually very close to the mark if not spot on IMO.
Tim
It's important to have a few rough edges.
Here is a list of corpses who don't have any rough edges:
Oprah Winfrey
Michael Jackson
Hillary Clinton
Joel Osteen
You get my drift.

That being said and in the interest of free speech leads me to believe Homeles jOes posts should be left here. I don't always agree with him but I think it's important to hear his opinion.
Jim
As my Grandfather often said, "Look at the pots callin' the kettle black..." P.S., Are any of the folks complaining about jOe HERE in the Doubleguns forum the same folks who whine that threads about gun control and Second Amendment issues belong in the seldom seen Misfires forum?
Your feeding him boys, he's loving all this and basking in the attention. If you'll just let it go.....
DLH
I got something I'd like to feed yOu Ma....
If Dave is a big boy don't you think he would eradicate HJ if he wanted to?
Greg........yes it would be "MY" wish. I havn't a clue what Dave would want.
BAD POST!
Hey HJ
"I got something I'd like to feed yOu Ma.... "
once again very classy, easy to say stuff like that 1000 miles away hiding behind a computer. Exactly what I expect from you, again quite a sad and pathetic person.
Jeff G.
Jeff yer such a classy guy....Why don't you take the time to read Ma'Parkers classy replies to me.
Jim-after all is said and done and dust has settled, I agree with you- Freedom of speech (NOT yelling FIRE in a crowded public venue when there are no flames evident being the exception here) is as important IMO as the Freedom of the People (US'ns) to own and bear arms freely) and some famous now dead Frog Statesman once said: "I may disagree with what you say, but I will defend to my death your right to say it"!! I think of HoJo as the "What, Me Worry" lop-eared kid on the cover of MAD Magazine- I'll bet you more folks read and post here due to several reasons: (One- Dave Weber- a firm believer in the Freedom of Speech issue- and (Two-everyone needs a good laugh to get through a world of Bernie Madoff, Chrysler closings and never ending Sturm und Drang in the troubled Mid-East, and HoJo provides that at times- his "personal" attacks on Market Hunter and Lowell Glenthorne are "over the top" IMO, and I agree with the poster who said something akin to "It's easy to insult someone you'll never meet from 1000 clicks away on the Al Gore-Network- sort of a Ted Kazinski long range approach- IMO"- thanks for your balanced outlook on this, very well said!!

Grin of salt boys!
I've been busy with real-life not the virtual stuff since Thursday and I only have a few minutes to scribble this down before I’m out the door again…
I had to pick up the head munchkin from college on Thursday (7 hours of drive time!)…back just in time to see my sons Lacrosse game that eve (I was tired!). Saturday was at a 50th wedding anniversary for my aunt an uncle who are pretty cool people (3 hour drive time) ....I had to escort my mom and my aunt who are both widows, not in great shape and just a tad nutty (yet loveable). They were happy for my uncle who happens to be my mother’s twin brother but you could tell they were a bit sad too.
Today; I get to be the fill in coach for my daughter’s basketball league. While my wife is taking my son to visit a friend’s dad in the hospital then she has to take the oldest to get some new duds for the great summer job she landed. My other boy is being dropped off to play in the marching band competition/parade in Henrietta which we are forced to miss….I was supposed to be the grill master until the B-ball thing came up.
Needles to say with all this going on I really can’t elevate the HJ thing to any priority level. Let’s face it he’s pretty set in his ways and nothing I could possibly do will change that. I also believe he should be able to express him self freely on the BBS as you all have the option of NOT reading his posts. If he crosses MY line I will reprimand him and then if he does it again I’ll shut him off for a week like before.
The funny part is that often I do find him both annoying and entertaining concurrently. I also allow him the latitude I would give any of you so if nothing else you should be happy to speak your mind on the BBS....
Hope to chime in again late this eve…till then……RELAX!
PS - If all else fails...go shooting!
I got something I'd like to feed yOu Ma....
HAHA.......i'm postive it isn't any gun knowledge!!!
Your just a red neck idiot like myself, only difference:
1) i have a life
2) i know when to shut my flapper

I'm not quite sure what HoJo has said to stir up such a discussion ,as I long ago blocked all his post/comments . That being said, why not do as I did & avoid his juvenile blather by blocking his post. There is an obnoxious teenager in our social group --- we dealt with him by ignoring him & his comments. Eventially, getting no reaction, he seemed to just disappear. Since regarding HoJo as such an ill mannered child, I am no longer privy to anything he says due to his being blocked. qhat a relief.
Dave, watch out! Filling in for the coach can be dangerous. I filled in for my son's 7th grade football coach when he went on his honeymoon. Next thing I new, I was THE coach. And then I coach for 6 more years and up to the Friday night game. So be carefull.
Tim
Dave Weber;
"The funny part is that often I do find him both annoying and entertaining concurrently.

Having been blocked from another (un-named) website by latter-day Puritans who dwell excessively in political correctness, I find this site a breath of fresh air, so long as the mindless and meaningless jabs don't get personal. This particular thread, however, is a good example of the trite quibbles that can engage one's interest to the exclusion of greater and more important matters in re: double guns.
As to the other website, the constant "disappearing" of threads was often a topic that, itself, also disappeared after a chiding by the master of political correctness and "speak-no-evil" who, himself, disappeared from the BOD, thus proving his "hall monitor" efforts to be thankless.
Yet I see this hall-monitoring type of censorship rear its ugly head here sometimes and, thankfully, Dave Weber has a policy of letting things run their course. Rest assured that this thread would have long since disappeared on certain other websites. In HAM radio terms, these masters of political correctness are called "Deputy Dogs" who troll the frequencies breaking in with their comments, much to the distraction and dislike of the real players.
One way to monitor the one-liners would be to require that all posts be at least two paragraphs, in complete sentences, and correctly punctuated. But why bother? You can personally, and quite simply block the non-contributors without having Dave take up one side or the other, thus giving importance to an otherwise trite issue.
Some mindless non-contributors have no original thoughts and only respond to the posts of others, be it one-line zingers or questions as to the "rules" of "allowable" expression of free speech in the micro-cyberspace occupied by this very site, as if it's zero-sum, and one man's worthless opinion somehow cuts into another man's profound insight into the meaning of life in-so-far as double guns are concerned. Lighten up guys.... EDM
Your just a red neck idiot like myself,
Finally something we agree on..
only difference:
1) i have a life....that could be debatable
2) i know when to shut my flapper....yOu have proven that's not true time and time again.
enuf said!
One thing for certain...
I'm not the idiOts that can't follow a simple set of rules in the for sale section and I didn't start this tirade that's beem orchestrated by the school marms.
I've blocked all your funny looking animal engravings....
"One way to monitor the one-liners would be to require that all posts be at least two paragraphs, in complete sentences, and correctly punctuated."
Funny you mention that....I'd like to see posters be allowed no more than two sentences or 50 words per post, whichever comes first.
Since I owe you a second paragraph, I'll concede without further discourse that you are one of the posters who springs to mind. Hope my punctuation passes muster.

Wow.....you sure must be a lonely person!
Guys;
It's Dave's sandbox and all of us are allowed to play with his toys. If we HoJo to play with us, let him,no knowing where this might go. Let's play together, then take a shower to wash away the grit that irritates our private parts.......
So, jOe, you aren't an idiot who can't follow a certain set of rules, just an idiot in general.
A week off would do you some good. Again.
Best,
Ted
How many weeks have you been off jOe? Just like ole' times i'm sure. I find it sad Dave has to punish the adult bully of a forum.
gee, perhaps them $4 generics from chinamart ain't doing the trick?

Time for you boys to go get a beer and chill.
