I thank them for their support and would like to share some of their very good advice. It has opened my eyes wide and I rejoined Political a few minutes ago to post this thread.
Because I was asked directly by two of them for a clear reason, I told them of my feeling about two individuals on the board and was surprised by the responses:
- One of them has been harrassing people on here for years
- Biggest jerk on the board
- My favorite: You provided more positive input on your last two threads than that jerk has in the last year.
I do enjoy the political board and they have convinced me not be driven away by the playground bully mentality. I do not have the ability to spar with that type poster, so will simply not allow myself to be drawn into the silliness. I just wanted to explain my return. I hope other frustrated folks can receive comfort from knowing they are not alone.
Synopsis: I am back, I will not buy into the hate and personal attacks, I will give my honest opinions without sarcasm. Hold me too this everyone.
Villager II On the golf course in my five years here I only have come across 4 people whom I would rather not play even one hole of golf

On TOTV as respects to those argumentative and rude poster I had taken the advice of a guy I played golf with on Palmers four years ago. I said to him "It makes me nervous when I look back and see golfers on my heels" He replied "don't look back" and so I never did after that discussion. So with those "unreasonable types" I just don't look back.

Welcome back to the forum. I for one appreciate and respect your points of view. God knows we all learn from each other
