I have had enough of one particular message board's over use of moderating. I felt like I was trapped under six wet blankets on that site. Got put into "private moderation/no threads or use" for a month cuz I mentioned that if I had a gun I would have gone looking for the dude looking in my downstairs window. Geez, guess you better just let folks do as they please on your property. Anyways, just a rant. This site is waaaaay better in that regard. I am going to make it my main board.

This is my "main board" for the same reasons you've stated, ya Dick.
Opinions are expressed freely here, as they should be, so as long as you aren't a complete & utter Tool, Asshole, Dickwad, or blatently showing a track record of stirring the pot until shi.t flies out on all sides. Be respectful, & you'll get along fine.
I'd like to see folks here who have been here a long time and no longer post up reports to start making a little effort again. The best posts are always trip reports with pics and good stories.

I'm a regular viewer on the other board but almost everything I post there gets pulled off after I started checking out PP. I think you guys are a bad influence....and it's good.

People can handle the truth here and think with in the realm of reality. When members of the "other board" are enlightend, so to speak, or don't want to accept something said, moderators jump in. It is nice to know that people can talk without hindrance of complaint on this board.

I was booted from "Brand X Board" (iSuck) because an out of towner posted a thread wanting to know why all the boats anchored in the Columbia had big orange buoys hooked to their anchor lines.

You mean you cannot mention a product name unless that product maker is a board sponsor? As in, "I have a Yamaha kicker motor on my boat." You get deleted or warned if Yamaha isn't a sponsor?
I haven't posted or read that site much, so am not familiar with its nuances.

You can mention Rvrfshr, just can't post a link since I'm not a sponsor...I, on the other hand, being the owner, am not even allowed to mention Rvrfshr.
I understand protecting your sponsors, but sometimes useful information for your members slips through the cracks if it's not allowed to be mentioned.

Ifish sucks balls!
There are a bunch of middle age tools on there that can get away with a lot more than the rest. everybody tries to suck off R&B lures because that is the only spinners co. that sponsors that board. meanwhile I mention rvrfshr and a few other companies and it is ammedietly sensored, wtf! gayrods

Hey EyeDOC this is how you probably feel about it all now too at the end of this short video snipet, huh?
This harmless phone prank got me "banned for life," for "making fun of retarded people." No way. A serious PM lecture spanking followed talking down to me like a child, which also stated I had to attend face to face counseling sessions with an ifish moderator to stay a member!!
Right.
GFY.
Had to tell them to kiss my butt even though many of us original members helped get the website off the ground for her.
How ludicrous in the big picture of life. I am their #1 in the entire world biggest fan and supporter now.
Thought I would "spruce up" the audio of the prank a bit for an encore dedicated to all of the look at me kiss ass iturd's, they know who they are, and especially for Mommy Pity Panhandle and her moderator marketeer dark knights.
I have told you the truth. Now back to fishing which is what really matters to us all anyway, not phony "web celebrities," and a flock of blind internet isheeple who get regularly sheared of the donation money in their pockets.

That other site is a little over the edge, I have been warned twice, once when quoting another person and using the term Sh#t, yes spelled just like that.

i've been told by many sources that brewer wouldn't last 5 posts before i got the axe. i guess 3rd person talk is heavily against jenny's staunch beliefs.
Besides being way over moderated there are also alot of very thin skinned members on that site. I guess that could be said about another fishing site a little closer to home as well. It amazes me how easily some people get there panties in a bind and go crying to moderators.

Dang - been on ifish since Sept 2000 and have never been banned.
I did get chewed on a bit by the moderators when the child molester/pedophile shot himself in the head, everyone was cryin' about it, and I pointed out that the guy slept with his student (he was a middle school teacher), got caught, and shot himself instead of manning up and going to jail because he WAS a child molester and pedophile.
I'm sorry, but I don't care how "likeable" the dude was. The dude slept with a kid and his student. Not only a pedophile, but a TEACHER.
Bastard deserves to be rotting in hell now, not cryed over.....
All I did was point out the obvious and got yelled at a bit.

Yup. That'd be the one! Yeah, I too got some great hate PM's. My post(s) were removed and that was it. No times outs for me.

I was banned from ibitch twice over the past 5 years. one for recommending that someone should shoot their neighbors aggressive dog and the other for calling the mods POS's after they shut down the hunting classified for a while. currently registered again a few months ago and will post this link in their "life and general section".

Yea, especially that. Wish that rat bastid worked for me in the Navy. He would have been over the side in a BOSWAIN's chair while underway 7x24 and never be able to get the red oxide and haze grey off of him to this day. His best friend would have been a wire brush in the head.
Self-centered Self-righteous POS. Hopefully someday one of the locals will be right in his face with "Go Home Yankee!" and we won't let him back in.

The "other" can be very frustrating at times. That is why I hardly ever post over there anymore. The Mods are very inconsistant and give certain people a much longer leash than others.
What else is frustrating is how over sensitive they are about posting and/or discussing non-sponsor business'. Jenny always says they cannot except new sponsors then you will see a new one awhile later.
She also claims that they only want 1 tackle company in order to not compete with one another. I then asked if that is your justification then why do you have 15+ fishing guides sponsoring?
I swear to god if I could have reached through my monitor somebody would be gasping for air. WTF!
Can't wait to stop the both next Portland sportsman show
You have got to be joking? And they left the mod who lives in Costa Rica stay on after he trashed the country.
Nope no joke, I still get pissed thinking about it. Told me there not a sponsor. They have a booth at the Portland sportsman show every year. I met QUEEN LA JENNY and the crack sniffer Pete a few years back. Goes to show you how inbreeding really fucks up genetics.

Big Moby, Priddy and Get Bent have always had the best pre-made fish catching spinners and tackle in Tillamook all the way back to Pete and Marilyn, hands down.
I'm not an "ad barker" just my experience and opinion.
Give them a try.
Don't sell your soul out to that cyber pity facade like some others have Big Moby.
If you don't mind I don't have "sponsors" but I just put up a link to your website on mine. "NO CHARGE" LOL. Priddy and Silagy are very good friends of mine too. If you do mind say so and I will take it down.

I have made a couple of posts over there. Got a huge lecture and told thay had held a meeting about me because I suggested that one of the posters who nominated Jenny for the fishing hall of fame might need a bit of toilet paper to wipe his nose off after having it sooo far up Jenny's ass. Go figure?

Okay ... things are getting personal right now, and that's not too kosher. As lightly as I moderate this end of the site ... that's going a litle too far. No bannings But out comes my key
