If you are one of these non SUP people, I challenge you NOT to comment!

Sorry Scotty, but I don't agree.

I don't always like what they say, but that is part and parcel of life. We have some freedoms in this country that I enjoy, and one is the freedom to voice your own opinion. Last thing I want is a nanny state where any idea that goes against the grain is censored. So long as no individuals are defamed, and the comments remain as they are, which I see as friendly banter. I say live and let live.

You can't vote with red thumbs. They were removed from the SUPG forum in case they hurt peoples' feelings .

You didn't know that all of that standing up to paddle thinned your hide?

I liked the red thumb, it gave me a secret little buzz. Like stealing a cookie or telling your wife something cost $4.50 when it was really $4.80

I liked whoever was constantly red-thumbing OG SUPs posts, every time, no
matter the content.

I agree only if the comments are pointed and personal. But I think that the moderators would jump onto it if the comments are reported to them.

My comments are apparently reported to Laurie, despite a lack of personal attacks. And yet I don't see fit to report any of the personal attacks against me.

Yeah.

Well I think it would be discrimination to ban some creatures just because they are different, just not PC any more.

Did a google search to find out the name of a mythical half man half dog creature, blow me down, seems like we have a unique one here - this was all I could find.

Centaur (horse-man)
Echidna (snake-woman)
Harpy (bird-woman)
Mandrake (plant-man)
Mermaid (woman-fish)
Minotaur (bull-man)
Satyr (horse-tailed man; later, goat-man)
Siren (bird-woman)
Sphinx (woman-lion-bird)
Tragelaphos (goat-stag)

So now what? I think we have a real opportunity to make history and name the genus of the mighty Doggie Legion creature. Came up with a mix of canine and human "Canman", and doesn't that work on so many levels, they..it..can the $hit out of all of us. Sounds a bit like a Porsche but figure that's their problem.

And I've noticed the bloody thing is becoming a bit more domesticated, still bites but doesn't draw blood every time

Sorry Scotty. We still need Freedom of speech. Otherwise you're kind of suggesting that Government Censored Media (China circa 1989 - Tiananmen Square) is OK.

PS - The Forbidden City & Tiananmen Square are freaking huge! I was there last weekend.

Yer,
But do you rekon the free advice we are recieving is worth it if that results numbers of SUP people that are probally being turned off the forum? AND

Is the free advice giving us anything since a lot of SUP people surf also and can already give views on issues from all other sports perspectives?

And.....why the hell if you were not even into paddleboarding, would you waste your time on theis forum? For example, i have no interest in boogie boards so I wouldnt even think about going onto a boogie board forum to unleash my opinion.

There is agendas with these people and if they are ruining the SUP forum for even a few people because there on some kind of crusade, I say dump em!

I think this post needs a

































WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH WAH

WAA WAA Get over what? Its my ipinion, nothing anyone said or will say upsets me.

I am just putting it out there.

Back to my question;
Why the hell if you were not even into paddleboarding, would you waste your time on this forum?

Doggie,
Regardless if you think i am upset or not,
I paddle board so for me that qualifies my opinion to write stuff
ON THE PADDLE BOARD FORUM

main point# i am taking notice of what other PADDLE BOARDERS have written.

I don't play AFL football, so I can't have an opinion on last weekend's Dockers vs Crows match. I don't race superbikes so I can't have an opinion on Rossi vs. Stoner a couple of weeks ago. I don't race F1, so I can't voice my opinion on Vettel vs. Webber. I'm not a politician, so I can't voice my opinion on Colin Barnett . Etc.

I've spent a lot more time in the water than a lot of people on this forum. I've spent a lot less time in the water than a lot of people on this forum.

I know a lot more about how waves break and how lineups operate than a lot of people on this forum. I know a lot less than a lot of other people.

I know a lot less about the latest yellow board and carbon paddle than a lot of people in this forum. Meh.

Just looking at your avatar Legion and forgive me if I'm wrong but it looks like you might be holding something like.... A CARBON PADDLE!

The game is up Legion
