Can We Bring Back The Blaster?

ive stated my opinion on this, i was perplexed by the vehemence of the reaction towards this thread and i wanted to convey my positive experience on the Treehouse. after seeing some of the responses here i really don't think the idea of bringing back mb will lead to anything but bickering and mud throwing.

You may have compounded your perplexity by using MBs own website in the present moment as the microscope, to study his old conversations here which I'm guessing you have not seen in detail, as it progressed.

"What I remember of MB is he had almost every second comment on every subject. He needed his own forum and he's got it. Everyone should be happy. And season's greetings to the fellow arborists over at The Tree House."

Exactly. i like butch as a savvy fellow taut line dinosaur who i asked to pick my avatar at the house. turned out he knew me better than i do sometimes! i like the house and the guys there. It doesn't often get into topics i am interested in, but i still check in now and then. the internet is a big place. like a big house with a big family, i wouldn't want to share a room with my all brothers if there was no need. This makes a good wrap to this thread, except

" What's the saying? Divided we fail?"

Mmmmm I would say Divided we Stand.

Always amuses me when guys enter a contentious thread and put themselves above the masses like lovstrom and Brendan. Yet they are there because of the contention. Some of your best relationships are developed in contention (or by fire if you will). IMO the best way to get to know someone is when they are mad and how they behave.

Maybe 4 years ago all the stars aligned with the moon and we had an amazing group on Ekka's forum. Vaden, Wulky, Treeseer, Sean Freeman, the MC's, Treeco, Reg, Galby, Cass Humphreys, and many more and it was vastly and hugely entertaining. Plenty of contention but for the most part very respectful. But the subject matter wasn't armpit noise competitions or volume of fart comps....it was just pure unadulterated Arboriculture.

Ekka subsequently self destructed, temporarilly I hope and everyone dispersed to land in some or all of the other 3 major forums. But it will happen again and again in the future when the stars will align and learning comes to the forefront. You just hope it is not blocked by self centered meatheads that cannot or don't want to keep up and destroy the flow.

That is what is happening on AS right now.

Yeah, What that NE guy said...really not fair to refer to a guy that can't post here with those words Boston.
 
For the record. The comments I made towards the T.H. were not to be taken as a "blanket statement" reflecting all of the T.H. members. Why would I do such a thing? Seriously. Is that like me?

Perhaps I should have said, there were a few people there poorly conducting themselves, so I left the T.H.
 
I think a forum where "regulars" moderate is anarchy.

In the same light, a forum where there is an "inner exclusive forum" is also a negative for those not in it. I was in one on one forum and most of the conversation is about putting it to the non "inside forum" guys that someone had a beef with.

This forum is the best set up imo where a couple of founders/owners with a lot of experience in the biz are mods and they are pretty good guys.

Then the leader of the inner forum (and the forum) went insane and starting cutting everyone's heads off (banning everyone).

Kinda like Apocolypse Now, only without the River :-).

You are right Chris, you don't know the full story.

And being you don't, you ought to leave it alone instead of second guessing the owners of the Buzz.

[/ QUOTE ]Interesting and not surprising you would again chime in on something you proclaim to be an expert on .

Perhaps being so enlightened you might want to share with the rest of the viewing public just how many sites you've been banned from and how many of the alias user names on each occasion .

You see Danny Boy some of us know your MO .Perhaps people in glass house shouldn't throw stones .

Thank you for bringing that up .I can only assume you might be refering to a site perhaps where one Mr Nelson attempted to reign and didn't work out for him .

Perhaps he might like to enlighten us on that topic too .

Somehow I rather doubt it though because he seems to disappear when a few of us show up . It seems the cat has Danny's tongue once again .

Al what ya drinkin', good buddy?

As you seem to be having trouble following the dialog, the inner forum that is being discussed is at Butchs' place.
