Nope

And unless you mean Ted, I don't know anyone else that studied turkeys on this site. You lump Steve in there too, just by pure dollars spent

This site is getting ridiculous. Running people like Matt off? Matt was a valueable resource for this site yes, but he didn't have to be. He did it because he cared to help people. He did it because he is a good feller. Something a lot of people on here lack.

This site has gotten to where it's nothing but drama, bickering, fighting and fussing. It's getting old and played out. I feel sorry for the ones that have nothing better to do than to get on a internet site and pick on folks, start drama, call people names, and put people down. And I'm not just talking about Matt leaving. I'm talking about the attitude of this sight for the last six months. Y'all like to gripe about skinny and him banning people, "boo whoo, it's not fair" whine whine. I think skinny should be putting out more productivity and banning a few more. This site used to be full of loving people, that cared for one another. But how can you be that person, five minutes after you just cussed out someone else. Some folks on here need to make a change, not just site related, they need a change inside themselves.

Now, I hate that Matt left, he was a good person best I could tell. Nighthunter, I hope you don't leave. You seem like a good feller too. Just ignore people more. If some IDOT starts saying things you don't like, ignore them and let it go. I have to do that on here every single day. There's still some great fellers on here, it's just getting harder to find them

SW I don't know you, but from just reading your last 2 posts, you seem to have issues with Matt.

>>>> I can't point to another profession of the top of my head where most folks knows more than the professional.<<<

Nighthunter, you need to try preaching. Anyone who has ever been to Sunday School knows more than a preacher with a seminary degree.

If Matt left because of the thread I started, I am truly sorry. I wouldn't have started it if I had known that would be the result. I did not really expect him or Nighthunter to post in it.

My apology to all of aldeer if I caused this. I will ban myself for a while.

It's a great loss of knowledge. Plus loss of a good man. This site is going to miss him

Preacher, I highly doubt you had anything to do with it. If everyone conducted themselves as you do, we'd have a lot more civil debate instead of the mud slinging free for alls that happen frequently.

I agree with Southwood. I like Matt and hate he is leaving……but he was too sensitive to play the role of the biologist giving advice on a public forum. He took every disagreement personally. A public forum is never going to be a place where you can just stand up on a stage and cast out your opinion to the crowd with no rebuttal. Folks have a right to have a different opinion and its more likely that the ones who disagree will be the ones who speak out. The folks who agree will just read it and shake their head “Yep.”. It’s not the end of the world if a few people disagree with you or don’t like what you have to say. Take the criticism or dissenting opinion like a man and move on. Folks get too butt hurt over having your knowledge or opinion put in question. If folks are slinging vulgar comments and just acting like fools then that’s one thing….but if its just a matter of someone having a different opinion or criticizing in a civil manner…..well, then that’s what the sign on the door about thick skin is really there for. That rule applies to us all equally. JMO

Jeez PCP...this aint your dang fault.

Unintended consequences I guess. Dont feel bad. You are always polite and insightful in your posts.

We've known each other a long time Brady but we're in two different shoes. Often when Matt and I are on here we are fielding questions related to work. Time we aren't getting paid for. We are doing it to benefit the people of this site. All to often we are then drug into arguments or criticized for the info we gave whether it be our profei opinions or facts. I can't point to another profession of the top of my head where most folks knows more than the professional.

And it wasn't just that thread, that one topped it off I guess. He needs to spend more time with his wife and 3 kids anyway.

I can think of one off the top of my head.

Thus the reason I rarely post responses to legal questions.
