Popular Post Seabee Posted September 9, 2011 Popular Post Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 4411 */8 /Just two days ago I had put together a note stating that we should all contact our Congressman and or Senator. The idea was to get everyone on the Hill to open up and talk about the IQD and to get them to open up on weather or not the treasury has all the Dinar that people think they do. Well, the end result was that I was the Devil from Hell for even suggesting such a plan and that if I was standing in front of a sand burm, someone would be selling tickets to take a chance of shooting at me in front of the firing squad. If I offended any one, they I would like to say that I am sorry.. The one thing about belonging to this group is that you can very quickly get your butt kicked and of course all this can put a great deal of stress on one's mind. However, after thinking about all the negative responses I decided to lick my wounds and take this as a learning experience and confess that I was wrong. I have never been so far out in left feild on a topic as I was with this one. If you feel that I have learned from my error with the above statement then I would appreciate some +1's to put myself back to where I was at. I took a beating I admit, but am still on the ride for the long or short haul. Peace & GO RV...... 52 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BETTYBOOP Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 +1 to u. Life is for learning and none of us are by any manner or means perfect. We all learned something. I am sure there are others on this forum who were thinking something similar to you but didn't dare post it. I am quite sure they read the posts and have now re considered their idea. So even people who didn't reply to the thread would learn from it. Do not let it play on your mind too much. You had the courage to openly post an apology and that in itself says a lot about your character, morals and you as a person. If I could take away all your negatives I would. Have a good day. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wpsmit Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Well, the end result was that I was the Devil from Hell for even suggesting such a plan and that if I was standing in front of a sand burm, someone would be selling tickets to take a chance of shooting at me in front of the firing squad. Thanks for "seeing the light" and coming back and retracting your suggestion. I am, however, afraid that you will still have to take some more punishment. Hurry, Hurry, step right up and take your shots at Seebee1972. Just 10k dinar gets you a ticket to sling all the mud you want at his idea. Plus you get unlimited negs to slam his character with. Hurry, Hurry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seabee Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Some would say it takes a big man to admit when he is wrong. I am not big nor am I a humble person, I am just a regular guy trying to mudle my way through life without taking to many hits. Thanks again for giving me a chance to redeem myself. You are all good folk. Dave GO....RV 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caye98 Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 +1, that's what most of us are here for, to LEARN! Just as "Many hands make light work", having the opportunity to share thoughts and receive feedback allows us all to learn. There is another post on here about a "Post-RV Party", nice sentiment, really bad idea IMO. Yes, it would be nice to meet some of the people on here, BUT announcing it on a forum such as DV could have unintentional bad results. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyJonesy Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 Hang in there Seabee. It can get a little piranha like in the forums at times but it seems you've got a level head... it's all good. +1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty obvious to me ur a Vet....took ur lickin, keep on kickin!! Thanks I am a Viet Nam and proud to say that. It is very unfortunate that I can not be proud of some of those people running this country into the ground. We need the leadership that we had right after WWII. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dman13 Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 Seebee, I'll give you a +1 but don't think you have any thing to apologize for. Why were you wrong? You had an opinion, took an action, and laid it out for all to see. I don't see anything wrong with that. You're invested in this just like I am, so do what you believe. God bless and Go RV.

mrparrot Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 Really? Seriously? He puts an idea out there and gets beat up for it? Did his idea endanger anyone's life? Did he tell anyone that they HAD to do it? Were the readers allowed to choose to do it or not do it? From the impression I'm getting (because I didn't see the original post), the "mob mentality" took over and the concept of free will got tossed out the window. I see no reason why he needed to apologize for anything. The fact that he felt that he had to makes me think that people went waaaaay overboard in criticizing his idea. Everyone needs to take a Valium and calm down... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You rock BETTYBOOP, . Every now and then I go back and revisit my topics that I write and check the feed back from the other members. Your note hit me in the face like a lead balloon, that is how energized I was from it. You put so much heart and soul into your responces that I can only say thank you to you and others that wrote in the same style that you did. Kind statements that are made by you and others like you go a long way into developing characters of myself and others like me. I tend to be brash sometimes and the worse thing is that I always don't see it within myself. It is not till I hear about about it from people like you and others do I stop to look with in myself and say "Hey, That person really has something to say and I should take note of it." I can say that I had a hummbling experience from the words that I wrote. The best part of it was the way you and others put me in my place and tried to correct my thoughts. BTW. I haven't dwelled on this at all, but thanks away.. : 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
