ATV Florida Forum

I've been on this site for awhile and have noticed alot of peoples opinions have drawn people to fight,dislike, or threaten them. why is this? i hear everyone saying our president is causing us to lose our freedom but yet on a little ATV site we cant use freedom of speech without getting bashed. i think it should be mandatory that if people here have open beef with one another there should be a grudge match, rock,paper,scissors, thumb wrestling something. this is getting out of line. if i don't like pitbulls say: I'm sorry to hear that i personally love them and had no problems with them and that would be the end not saying your a tree huggin idiot person. i might be wrong or right but think too many egos are checking in every day.

Very well said.

I agree. All I did was post a positive video and I started getting Neg remarks for it. It wasn't posted to make a debate nor was it posted to hear opinions. I posted it to show how pit owners see pits. It''s cool though me and Sparky don't take offense to what gets said b/c we know people have a different opinion to what we raise. It's not hate, it's alot of DISLIKE :) lol

yeh but my point is alot of people wont post stuff like that here because they are affraid what someone might make of it.

The biggest problem with alot of people on this site is they are too opinionated. I have sent 3 or 4 people to the site to sell stuff and they make me look like an idiot b/c they bash what they have. I didn't send them to the site to get bashed I sent them here b/c all in all it is a good site despite a few members. It's bad when people are afraid to post things knowing that it will make a big debate. If you can have a negative opinion than I don't see why it's such a bad thing to post a positive opinion. Freedom of speech is what makes this website. We are free to post almost anything we want but what good is it if members are worried about the outcome that they will get b/c they are posting something they believe in.

I think if you take it personally you have a problem and shouldn't participate. I only care about what my wife thinks/says. Everything else is just words.

I still don't like cats.

Thats all that matters!

You obviously never had one cooked right.

   :bow.gif :Clap.gif  I am glad I dont have an ego...lol  good post.

pit bulls are the most dangerous dogs! period  :M

those are the the stupid post that get bashed you moron! i guess you cant read no bashing!

all I gotta say is opinions are like a**holes everybody has one and most of them really stink!lol

                                                                                                                                                                 WOW, im so glad im not whipped lol

Ya know I'd almost be offended by than Can-Am but you like the Gators so you don't have much of a brain :) lol

I think your opinion of this opinion discussion is wrong and i hate you for it.


lol jk jk


I agree though, you cant say anything without everyone getting bent out of shape, but its caused MOSTLY by certain people that just like to argue, most of those people get boo'ed off the site some stick around and just give us sh!t all the time. Everyone needs to chill out. It's been said so many times that this isnt a place for all that garbage we deal with day to day. Its a place to talk about a hobby that we all love and DO to get AWAY from this crap. BUuuuuuuut anyway, its friday and i need to get a cold one in me before i type another word!

HAVE A GOOD STRESS FREE AND SAFE WEEKEND EVERYONE.  8)

All of you are wrong.... ???

I don't know about you sissies but I am one tough S.O.B.  on line. :N  hahahaha

let's rumble!  whoever can type the fastest! LOL  :D

 no sir you are!!!   and BUD is recycled MILLER!! :o

GEEZE, I havent been in a good one in quite some time, and I get this .............................. Priceless ;)

I got banned from the other site for 24 hours. (They're quite up tight over there considering all the homoerotic talk that invades every thread.) Frickin' Speech Nazis!  I won't ever go back to that fascist website ever again. You here me? "NEVER!"

I use to hang out here on this website, but some of the "older" folks don't get my sense of humor. Not to mention, they want to limit what you can and can't say, so I only come here once in a while to catch up with a few old friends.

We use to have fun on this website...selling time machines, hanging out with BrewMaster, good natured ribbing, and giving faulty advice to people with clogged petcocks.  Now, it's too serious.

It struck me as kind of odd that ATV enthusiasts who are under constant bombardment from OTHER people with regards to the right to ride on public lands would be so uptight and intent on controlling what other people say.

I've also noticed, that it's some of the more mouthy individuals who dish it out but get all offended when you say something to them.

I won't mention any names, but you know who I'm talking about.

Anyway...there's my rant for the day and here's a video for old times sake and it has not a dam thing to do with ATV's and I'm gonna post it anyway. So suck it!

RICOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! We thought you were dead in a ditch somewhere! lol

Anyway if you take anything that gets said on this site too serious then you have to relax. I can take as much as I dish out and I know thats ALOT! But I don't let it get to me, it's keyboard fighters who try to use big words to confuse us toothless rednecks who tend to take it personal and start with the low blows.

All I have to say is CAN'T WE ALL JUST GET ALONG!!!!!!!!

Blu, I'm like the Rosa Parks of ATV internet chat boards! I'm opressed by those haters!

(Shh...don't tell anyone, but I think they banned me as a joke.) But I assure you my boycott of them is as real as it gets!

Anyway, it's good to see you. I see your still championing your cause for those godless killing machines known as PIT BULLS! Good for you!

I made a mix tape for QT. If you talk to her let her know!

yep you know I gotta defend em! So how is the baby harp seal hunting goin? Kill and newborn seals lately? I'll let her know but I think she's got a new man he's sweet on her too ;) you might have a fight on your hands with him...He's a big boy!

just when I was going to make a decent reply to this,,,Rico goes and takes the words outta my mouth.

You know anger is a sign of sexual stress!!!!!!!

With few exceptions, nobody actually gets upset on these discussions.  It provides people with a way to express themselves that they would rather not do in a face-to-face discussion.  Once you get used to the way people act on these types of forums, it can actually become an amusing past time to read and/or be involved.  Keep the curse words out of it and don't tread too heavily on people's feelings; you might actually want to ride with them some day.   ;)

By the way, the title of this forum is OPEN DISCUSSION.  Discussing anything is what this forum is about.  We have forums for racing, where to ride, group rides and, of course, all out war from time to time.  It really is all done in good nature, for most of us.  Some folks take it too seriously and resort to cursing and name calling, but those who get it, are usually laughing all the way.

well, this thread went downhill.... where did all the drama go.

...and swamp, to even mention that (ugh) lite piss in the same thread as "The King of Beers"... I now will have to deposit some used bud on your front step... >:D

well said digginFool for once we agree.It's all for a good past time.come up with a good post so we will have something else to talk about.I know you have one or two in mind.

digginfool just twists things around and does a little dance after he calls people toothless rednecks and thinks he wasnt being offensive.Digginfool has to be a spin doctor like clinton used when he said oral sex wasnt sex.

I hate cats.............and I cooked them everway possible.  ???

couldn't agree with you more dumbfool oh i mean digginfool! lol j/k it is all in healthy debate. it is very fun to me keeps me occupied at work! lol nobody is getting up set just have different opinions and we are debating our cause. if digginfool came up to me any where or vice versa i would shake his hand and say hows it going. it is all in good fun, people just have different opinions and that is the American way!

  You already have...and you ran over my cat and knocked down my fence... too much of that King of Piss I guess. ::)

It's all about the marinade ;)

Wait a minute, are you saying my opinion sucks.  Can't be, I spent all of 2 seconds forming it with my overly developed brain, I must be right, right?

 Then go frig yourself :o  lol

right??? right.

i wish C.H.P.S. was still on tv. Ponch and John were cool. i had a guinea pig named ponch.

the cats in the kettle at the peking moon!!!!!!!!

 Ponch and John were queer...and had beastiallity sesions with cats.

you know, you never really saw them with chicks. could be the reason i hate cats. ;D that was funny swamp!!!!!

He thought he got married so he wouldn't have to do that much anymore...Man did he get that wrong! lol

And He's not home but he said to tell you.... he's not stressed he comes by your house on his way to work ;) lol

He also said he can't believe you said that Scott, he sends people to your car lot all the time...lol

As well he should send people to buy from me...if he is going by my house on the way to work...heck thats worth 10 or 11 deals per week ;)

I'm with Rico.  I joined this site 4 years ago to talk about ATV's or topics relating to ATV's.  I know this is an open discussion area and I am all for it.  But what are we going to see next, an ATVflorida Dating link or something.  If you want to bash people join th AOL chat and go to town.  If you have an opinion about a non ATV topic that is hateful or you start crap on anothers topic, let it go.  There are alot of kids on this site also.  I think this is the best site Florida has seen for the large ATV world we have.  Lets make sure it continues

well i don't believe i like your attitude there buddy!   lol j/k

I've been her for a couple years & had my share of bashing people,
one was w/ Anoriginal, who I still have never met, but I can tell he's good people, I appologized to him later on this board, I consider him my friend now, we kid around w/ each other sometimes, it's funny.

Another was w/ Swampdonkey, who i still never met but i can just tell he's good people too, I consider him my friend too,
if either one of them ever need's a hand I'll take the shirt off my back for them.

A lot of us here know how to forgive & forget, MAYBE NOT EVERBODY but most of the mature one's that don't have ego's to try to protect or whatever know how to.

Theres a lot of people on this board & there's bound to be a few butt heads just like anyplace else, I alway's say theres one on every block.

Maybe one day some will be able to lift themselves to that level of maturity & do the same as otheres here have done.

I seen a commercial on TV the other day about internet bullying, it kinda made me think about how i should say things over the internet, I thought it was a pretty good commercial.

Honestly, I only come to this site to read American Highlanders posts!

He's the most entertaining, plus it's fun to try and decode them.

Although, I haven't seen him around lately.

 You had to wear 3-D glasses to read his post.

He mighta gotta tired of the bashing too, but at least he used only one screen name  :o

Speak for yourself!! ;)

ITS ALL GEORGE BUSH`S FAULT 8)

 Yea but that one screen name was for FOUR people :o

Hear I am stickin up for the little guy again, gets me in trouble every time :(.
I'll stop, your right.

 Actually you made a better point...I already had 6 beers, so it doesnt count ;)

LOL, I haven't had any today so your still prob. right.

Sometimes I feel like I have 4 different personalaties though, depends on how I'm feeling I guess.

Have a beer for me please.

 Just 1 ??

Your right again Swamp, have another 6.

I'm gonna get off the couch & go do a shot of J.Beam just for you,

thanks man.

 Right again??? WTF twice in one 24 hour period?? I cant handle that kind of pressure...you better have a couple shots for me. Therapy...yep now i need therapy.
