Good morning folks. Weatherwise, we have yet another warm day ahead, just about normal, but tomorrow we drop a good 10-12 degrees. For the record, starting today, we've never gone over 100 degrees through the end of the year. That's comforting since we did have the A/C back on this past weekend.
RB, one of the things that almost got me looking at a different hobby was the way people were treating others over at some other forums. Be it jealousy or arrogance, they acted very childish in their behavior. I suspect that some of them were just that, children, but regardless of age, it can be construed as cyberbullying In some cases can get kids suspended from school. adults fired from their jobs, restricted from using the Internet or worse. I found The-Gauge over ten years ago, and it was refreshing how everyone treated everyone else here. If i wasn't for the people on these forums, I'd be out flying R/C planes, painting pictures or doing some other hobby. I never dreamed at that time that I would be part owner of these forums to carry on the tradition, but our policy and respect for others have never changed. If you are being harassed, I truly hope that it's not one of our members. As you say, anonymity does show that they are cowards, and if they are very young, I really hope that they learn how to act and treat others, before they grow up.
Do not stop posting pictures because of the hurtful words of one person, I'm sure that some people would find it difficult to do some of the things you do.
