Gotta admit - 

The hostility, anger and condescension were something else.

I just sat back and watched the 'train wreck' in process in that thread. I knew I didn't have to 'contribute' to have it happen.

Yup ~ 

They come and they go.

Some a bit faster than others.

The sad thing is he kept bragging about how intelligent he was. If he was truly intelligent he would of used this forum to learn new fishing techniques but that must of been beyond his comprehension. Another member told him to learn from YouTube videos which is great advice. Youtube has helped me locate many fishing locations in several states I have fished and I continue learning from other Youtubers that are generous enough to post videos. Maybe he was not a frustrated newbie and instead he was a troll. If the latter is true than I feel sorry for him since he is missing out on a very good forum to learn about bass fishing.

I can't state on the supposed intelligence, but I can state that the social skills need adjustment.

Huh? I’m always late to the party.....

Well, if you weren't always out fishing, maybe you'd get in on the 'good stuff'.

Same

 

I was disappointed I didn't get to read all 4 pages before it disappeared. I was really getting a kick out of it! 

It was just more of the same - only the 'subject' was getting more incensed and insulting.

Unfortunately it wasn’t that, I was driving home from work. That’ll teach me! 

I was surprised it lasted as long as it did.

Guess we have to have one of those every once in a while.

Helps keep us grounded.

And here I thought this thread was about the video game Fallout.

And another thread by 'subject' bites the dust...makes you wonder.

Strike two! 

Also missed it, which is crazy if it went 4 pages. Never would have thought I don't check the forum frequently enough!

$%#@ ! I left for work and came back to... nothing.

Me too. I call it “Pauli Syndrome” after the character on Cheers. 

Like the saying goes, arguing with idiots is like playing chess with a pigeon, or an owl in this case I suppose.

Well be glad you missed it..lol

 

 

Summary..Dude posted he couldn't catch fish, then proceeded to bash anyone that tried to help.  Strangest thread I've seen on here.....ever

As the OP on this one, I could see & feel the stress building on the site from this persons thread.  It was palpable. 

Figured this would allow for a release of all the bad Juju.

 But we move on.

With all the Greatness here - that human wasn't even a blip on the radar, perhaps closer to a bumble bee in the Astrodome . . . . .

Insignificant.

I'm convinced he was a troll. the more he got good advice, and answered questions, the more hostile he became. it was very strange.

He did the exact same in a second thread - now deleted. It's like he's choosing to be confrontational. How long he's going to last in BR is anyone's guess.
