I double dog dare you to post that over on you know where. :rofl:

yup shitty kittie is right.

Even with this whole air leak thing i don’t blame FX for it one bit. AOA is responsible. they clearly installed the wrong size seals. very simple fix.

The SK is very heavy. all that brass airline and coupling and the gauge is heavy and adds weight…. all they had to do is follow suit with the cricket and put the gauge on the air tube and a fill probe behind.

I bet they would shave a full lb off by doing that.

I always warn folks that for me AOA has not been good where major support is required despite their size. Maybe others have had a better experience. In one case I fixed a leak myself with the help of the third party expert and on the other leaky gun I shipped it directly to the manufacturer myself and got a replacement. I really had to bypass AOA to fix the problems quickly.

They have every issue of an Edgun and a Cricket added together and then some news ones like the bad plumbing. Folks need to get over marketing by Ted and others that create a temporary false perception of a product and cause a short term run on them. Eventually reality sets in and the marketplace forces win out. They have a good barrel and great trigger but stumble very badly after that. Without the ST barrels FX would be a pretty lame product line because many of them just look funny. The Bobcats really fit the designation “Shitty Kitties” IMO 😀 I certainly have not seen one I would be willing to buy yet and the ones that do look ok are 4 feet long. 😯

On the topic of the bobcat there is yet another post on the….ahem….*other forum* about problems with one. This time it seems to be inaccuracy which I think is fairly rare for FX’s no?

I like staying here because I like the people or members here. If those people don’t like here and go somewhere else, I will follow them.
I don’t like yellow at all, keep my mouth shut there just because selling or buying something from members there. I love freedom.
I believe that we can find a place where all members can enjoy free speech and build friendship.

Seems to be lots and lots of bruised EGOS lately, in my humble opinion, for the most part,self inflicted. This would be an all inclusive observation, spanning two very informative forums. I hope we can get back to air gun information soon.

PS: I hope Uncle Hoot is able to take a giant dump, maybe catch up on some reading. 😕

I’m a member of 3 airgun forums and you must say this forum is something else. Moderators are pretty much asleep compared to other forums. I’m not sure if that is the best because we has topics starting or having the f word in it and it really makes me cringe. I will not open Tapatalk and this form with my kids looking over my shoulder. As a matter of fact I sometimes hope nobody finds out I’m reading this forum on a regular basis. Language flows freely and I never did say anything till now but do we really have to go there. We’re all adults and don’t need to prove to anyone we are king of the hill. We’re all feeble humans and come to this forum for a little chat and to learn. My main reasons are to learn from the experts and give back to forum what I can. I think when we are granted a membership we should respect the everyone as a whole. When administration says stop we need to take a breath and realized what’s going on and who is the boss. Anything without some kind of restraints will eventually end up out of control and junk. I enjoy this forum and let the information flow and cut back on the crap:-)

Sadly, freedoms in the USA are just about as much ancient history as common decency and fair play.

Happily the only freedoms here on the TAG are the ones we allow.

We give you guys so much freedom here you believe you are in charge.

Tony and I are in charge.

Now move along and complain about something else…You are free to do that. :darth-vader: :rofl:

quote zocoloco:

Hmmmmmmm……

As much as I respect WOK’s noble attitude and desire to support a friend and back him up when needed, I would agree with those who say a true friend should listen and give advice when he sees something that may have an impact on his friend’s well being….. 😉

Apparently WOK disagrees. He prefers to shy away from the essence of the discussion. \

You have no clue as to my private conversation have been with SteveCT so give it a rest.

This is mine and Tony’s forum

Go ahead and blather all you want on your forum pissing and moaning about it to avoid your own hypocrisy maybe Machine Gun will show up on your forum and of course you will let him post his complaints about you there 🙄

If bitching and complaining about SteveCT is necessary for anyone to stay on the TAG…Then leave

Stop going to the Yellow Forum and reading it and you will have no reason to complain about it.

Now I have asked people to stop. If you do not…

I will drop the hammer on you just to give you something else to complain about.

If you can not get past obsessively posting about SteveCT and can not honor my request….

Then leave and stop wasting my time.

I am tired of dealing with a bunch of SteveCT stalkers who can not wait to see what he does next on his forum.

Sadly, freedoms in the USA are just about as much ancient history as common decency and fair play. We look back to them with fond memories, knowing that they are not likely to come this way again. The saddest part is that most Americans were too self asorbed and Self reightious to notice. Very few saw it coming and those that did were scorned for it.

In fact, is saw it done here again just this week. An attack on a news network for daring to tell the truth on what has happened here in this Country.

Stick a fork in us, We’re Done!

Hmmmmmmm……

Apparently WOK disagrees. He prefers to shy away from the essence of the discussion. So this is not the place. The discussion is not wanted, and with all due respect, WOK may decide as he wants. How he and his friends believe they are going to benefit from this attitude in the long run, – is however beyond my understanding. Also none of my business…….

All I know is that I’ve made a terrible mistake in believing this was THE place for open discussions and freedom of speech. Based on my understanding from “lurking” in the bushes before coming out in the open with my “waiting” thread (still the second most viewed I think) and later my “comparison” thread (soon to reach 170.000 views and by far the most viewed in this corner of the web). Knowing what I know now, I should have taken these threads elsewhere………

My bad, I know. I am plain stupid…… 😳 😳 😳

In this wonderful and transparent cyberworld that I call “Airgunia”, there are lots of cells/institutions or “states” if you like. Some small, some big and some real “monsters”. I’m talking about the forums that you find all over the web. The “Yellow” is one of the latter categories. Seen from “outside” and “beyond”: What I simply don’t understand is how the American public can support this completely “totalitarian state” and even throw money at it in terms of support. If there’s anything the US is known for in the international world, – it must be their ability to “crack” down on “dictatorships” and the lack of democracy within them……..

Freedom of speech in the United States is protected by the First Amendment to the United States Constitution. The legal protections of the First Amendment are some of the broadest of any industrialized nation…….

It appears not to be true when business and dollars come into play…………

“Hypocrisy” at its best………….

I may want to “retire” now. I have our own Norwegian forum to look after. It is not sponsored by anyone, and there’s not a lot happening right now. However there’s an international section on there where I can guarantee freedom of speech for everybody as long as you maintain a civilized language and a minimum of ethics is upheld. It does not take a lot of effort to open it up for a broader audience. That may be an alternative……… 😉

I’ll be back with more (if not banned in between)………..

Cheers
Trygve :biggrinn:

Being in the UK, I’d just like to say…….

Well, I guess I stand corrected. I had NO idea the way the hi-Archie was arranged here. I don’t know what the Hell Steve has done other than allowing free advertising on his form. But it must really be something to make him count as a friend more than the multitude of friends you have right here in your own house. The one, outweighs the many I guess.

I would hate to loose many of my friends over ONE who can’t show respect to anyone but his self and his cronies. But this is your house. I will forget all the times the TAG has been represented as our house. For everyone. But then in reality, it is not. Exactly like Steve has always explained himself on the yellow. But if the forum has no members, then what damned good is it? Steve doesn’t make the TAG. The members make up the tag. Think Not/ How long would the TAG last with NO Members? It wold no longer be a forum. Something Steve in his arrogance has totally forgotten. A King with no realm is a King of nothing.

Odd thing. In the South, we have a tradition. We treat people in our house as guest. We do not attempt to make them enemies simply because we know a person who has mistreated them, and aren’t afrade to say so. But to each his own.

This is the exact same type of thing that has separated the north from the south, the east from the west, the left from the right. We totally disagree on the difference between right and wrong. Common sense and fair play are things of the past. It lessens us all. And is why, my head is hung low. Yes WOK, a very sad on the tag. A damned shame.

I may still post here, if allowed, but I will Never feel the same about this place I called home for years. As you have so eloquently pointed out. It is NOT home. We are just ALLOWED to be here, and or do business with you and Tony? Perhaps I should bow down now?

This is wrong. Damned Wrong! Seems to me this could have been done privately rather than openly. This only causes common sense to be over ruled by Ego.

Steve has actually been very fair in all the personal Emails we had throught the years, but I see how people are getting frustraded as of late since he has become very trigger happy 🙂 🙂

The Yellow will suffer in the future unless he steps it up and change that crappy format, but you can’t talk about it on the Yellow because it will be deleted.

…..some of his Moderators are pretty shitty 🙂 🙂
