I am not blocking any posts. Apparently MA violated some Gulch FAQ rule, was warned by the owner of this site, and did not comply with the stated rules even after the warning. This site is provided/owned by the AS movie producers (I think) and as on most internet sites, the site owners decide what is appropriate and act accordingly when people violate the rules. (All my comments are my own, and based upon my observations and my reasoning.)
I'm expressing this for my own perceptions. You make me very uncomfortable if you're blocking M.A.'s posts. I would rather read them and have others read them and read their commentary as well. I find your posts quite succinct but I don't want anyone deciding things for me.
Hello freedomforall, The entire thing is theater. It is chest pounding to try to impress the Chinese and perhaps N.Koreans. I agree with allosaur they should use bikini or some other island in the region they have already damaged. They claim they will use dummy bombs and that it is just for target practice. They could do that anywhere including White Sands. Seems a waste of a potential tropical paradise. Even dummy bombs and the rest of the plans will discourage, if not outright preclude, any peaceful human endeavors there. Respectfully, O.A.
In this instance, I was replying to MichaelA, not to you, Herb. In that comment he responds as if "flaming" (see definition below) does not apply to him:"Can't stand the heat don't get a kitchen job." Flaming is what MA sometimes does when someone disagrees with his posting. Its unacceptable internet behavior, especially on a site that has a basis in reason and rational thought. Re: flaming refer to the FAQ at: https://www.galtsgulchonline.com/faq What is "Flaming?" Flaming is a hostile and insulting interaction between Internet users, often involving the use of profanity. It is frequently the result of the discussion of heated real-world issues such as politics, religion, and philosophy, or of issues that polarize sub-populations, but can also be provoked by seemingly trivial differences.
And filtering is not ignoring. Filtering is a tribute to someone else. Ignorig is putting them aside as i said earlier so Strugatsky's intercession is timely.
Igoring is something like saying. The fly is not worth swatting.
Here's your thumbs up I don't believe it matters how or in what form it arrives +
Well, actually that's not censorship at all. Censorship is when one decides what's good to hear (or not) for others; filtering is when I decide what interests me.
Busted! I type with two fingers on one hand and four fingers on the other hand. Sometimes they trip over each other. The one hand now has muscle memory where each finger does the job of two sort of a swivel thing. I also tend to hit the shift key with the opposite hand as the letter key. At one time it was 100 wpm a minute mistake free. Not any more. I suspect before I do the mortal coil shuffle it will all be speech entry with only a few control type keys. That's what happened to Morse Code. Dumping that was a huge mistake for Marine Safety.
I have appreciated his historical information his knowledge of the constitution , his perspective of the military , his love of maid-rites and he does have a clever way about making his points. He has blasted me for ignorant comments and credited me for intelligent discourse .
Flaming? I know that is often referring to a gay man. I guess I'm not up on the latest. Perhaps you can explain your incoherence to me. Regarding posts, I made myself quite clear.
In answer to Enyway's grammar or idiocy it was neither my grammar nor the other persons problem.
The Stated reason was using too much of a cut paste of other articles although what that has to do with this is an unknown. It took four days to reach my computer. No warnings or caution flags. I complied and actually did agree and you'll find a post about military voters Trump vs Hillary in the NEW section done in the approved style. I assume approved that's never been addressed either then or now. The rest is just the usual complaints that some seem to find necessary to carp about but some are spot on and help to improve the product. Both ways have nothing to do with that which your were conversing about. As far is sarcastic what else could you say about idiot remarks?
The more rules there are, the faster we get rid of this government. Standard AS tactic. Wait for the idiots to create so many rules that they create there own defeat.

Keep on flaming.
