    Expletives

    Hi

    Perusing the facebook sections, I am staggered as to how people conduct themselves in regard to airgun sales and purchases. Many of them turn into slanging matches, sarcastic comments and even threats of violence! I am glad this forum is as civilised as it at should be, (with the exception of one abusive bad deal I have put down to experience). Is it a co-incidence these people can barely string a coherent sentence together?).

    Would these people behave in such a manner before social media, I can only wonder. An outsider looking in may tar all shooters with the same brush.

    I appreciate your thoughts ladies and gentlemen.

    I have a Facebook page but rarely use it. It is a strange place.

    I enjoy facebook but I am very selective as to who can see my data and who I select as friends.
    It works really well to keep in touch with acquaintances you might normally forget.

    I agree however, it can be a dodgy place if you are not really careful. Dodgy groups are best avoided!

    Ouch!

    I hate to grovel ... but I think this is because the mods do a decent job on here. If you took the mods away I'm sure this place would also turn into a slanging ring. Some of the threads head that way but then the big red button button comes out.
