I think I've been a big supporter of the site. I've posted boating content, encouraged others to come aboard, participated in events, purchased merchandise and even offered to help out. I think one of my recent my threads was taken the wrong way. There's a sponsor I'm not a fan of. However this is your website not mine. So I'll keep my opinions of sponsors to myself from now on. That is if I'm still welcome to continue to post. Do I agree? I guess that's irrelevant. I'm here to participate in some boating content (I wish there was more. Especially in the tech sections) and shoot the shit about random bullshit as we all do here.

Why do I get dizzy when I look over the edge of a tall building?

We get letters, #7:

"Do I have to PM or can I just ask here. I'm not shy, how many times can a member get banned until they get banned for good?"

Another good question. Back when we first started this place up we had a couple of members who just could not resist the temptation to launch character grenades at certain people. After numerous requests and several bannings (I want to say 3), I finally kicked them out for good.

In comparison the most recent banee's offense imo was not as pernicious as the previous offenders offense, but it was very close.

So to answer your question, we do not have a 3 strikes rule. But people have been permanently banned for cause, and I imagine they will not be the last.

I hope that answers your question.

It's common for "older" people to experience vertigo.

I was going to respond to your PM but might as well do it in the open. Yes, you have been a supporter and I appreciate that. But how many times have you seen a F*CK (insert advertiser name here) posted on this site?? I'll answer that for you, zero. That is after your post was taken down.

And before you get all huffy on me, understand there is no way for any of us to verify your complaint. It may be 100% true. But it was your experience, not ours.

There are a few places I will not patronize for various reasons. Those reasons are my reasons and after taking to people in private, I've found out that we don't share a lot of the same common complaints or positive experiences. You and I may patronize the same place and like, or dislike it, for different reasons.

I don't think your thread could have been taken any other way. You were clearly unhappy and that's unfortunate. But this isn't the place to post your personal dissatisfied feelings and comments. As I said in the other thread, the absence of positive comments and feedback about any business should be a very good indicator of where not to spend your money.

Now lets see some boating content please

Thanks for the compliment...I'm not good at taking them. But, I can dish them out like a champ!

I don't blame you for not letting me near her...she will be "changed" forever

On a serious note, what did you have to do to convince her to date you? That's a question I'm confident a lot of people want to know.
