Folks,

 

Ron has always been very helpful to me to and if he has been to you rot not has NOTHING to do with this thread.

 

There are real reasons why the sites are down. Let it rest until further notice.

Twitter is better anyway; get on there.

PITA? That certainly is not the Ron Hershmann I know. He has always been more than helpful whenever I've asked of him.

Easy to say behind his back, huh?

 

Behind his back?? It's right out here. And yes - Ron has some redeeming traits - but the bottom line is he tried to take over the "IRRA" on  Facebook - placed his OWN web page out on Facebook under the IRRA name - and Facebook took ALL the sites down because of his actions!! How is that NOT creating a PITA for an organization that he once supported as well as for all the people that like to follow that organization on Facebook? And how is it behind his back when it's on a PUBLIC forum? I see from many people's PM's  that they seem to have no problem with the statement. And Noose helped remove Ron from the IRRA board- - and the reason the site is down is because of Ron's actions!  The IRRA Facebook page was up LONG before Ron started his ranting. And that's the basics of WHY the Facebook page is still down!

Just the facts, man!

Why dont you say that in a public forum that he is allowed to post on? Thats all Im asking. I know if I was in his situation, I would like the opportunity to confront the people saying bad things about me. <br /><br />

If you report something that is factual - how is that "bad things"?? Check out what happened, then say if it's "bad" or not.

[JHMerriman]

Being a PITA is your opinion! Nothing factual to it.

Come on guys - everyone one is entitled to their own opinion. It does not mean it is right or wrong, nor that people will agree or disagree.

Why can't we all get along for the betterment of the HOBBY?

[JHMerriman]

I agree that everyone is entitled to their opinion, just don't state it as fact.

[Duffy]

Get over yourselves: from post #46 on at the very least, all of these are "own opinions" and at best are just reiterations of some well-kicked-over lines in the E-sand. "Fact?" Doesn't matter to the other guy slinging back; "fact" means "Whatever I agree with and you DON'T".

Like any good Irish stand-down, this discussion's about "who can get HIS position posted last WINS." Works on the 'Net, right? And what else counts?
 
In case anybody's actually-like-literate here, Ron was indeed able to respond for like ever, and chose the route of consensus-building instead; and so it goes. And on the other hand, response #51 pretty much shoots the legs off the "opposing side."

Yet we still bang on our soapboxes like tambourines. Our further input is superfluous.
