Once or twice was "cute" but now there's a glut of 'em and besides being demeaning, they're just plain silly. All existing topic titles have been edited.
Doesn't mean ya can't still show off yer new bow!
:clapper:

Amen bro, been there done it, got the t-shirt.
Man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank You Rob...It was starting to resemble the other site....
Politically correct on an archery site?
Thank you Rob :thumbsup: I guess I just didn't get that anyhow.

Not at all, but I think that Trad Gang has more membership class than those kinda titles portray.

maybe you haven't been reading the thread discussing Biggie hunting 'neked :biglaugh:
but yes, we can move on and up
:clapper: That should be a "man law".
Don't get me wrong. I don't care if there is another "man law" post. I assume most people where using that title just following the trend. Just seems a strange thing to censor.

I tend to agree, but I am just a guest here. I guess I could find a lot of things potentially "demeaning" on here if I wanted to have thin skin.

Sorry, I hadn't looked thru PowWow today until after I posted. :knothead:
THANK-YOU THANK-YOU THANK-YOU!
We all have better things to waste time on!
Yea, I have a problem with this censorship thing myself. Seems a tad on the dictatorial side. Seems like you have to walk on eggs around here more and more.
So how does everyone really feel bout it? LOL!!
Heck, if ya'all are gonna' class up the joint you may have to censor me.
Just kiddin'. Moderators should get to have executive priveledge for all the work they put in.

Well said Rob....
To those who take issue with the "man law" removal decision - I'm sorry and I apologize for any pain or anguish that Trad Gang has caused you by our action in this matter.
But there will still be no more "man law" topic titles.
I'll give this thread a bit longer to live and then it, too, shall disappear. Why? Because this thread that I created is also not needed or wanted at Trad Gang.
Oh, and also - because I can. :wavey:
:clapper:
Time to turn my Cap locks on and YELL at Rob....
THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I guess the saying "If you don't like or agree with what you're reading then don't read it" does not apply to thread titles?
The "Man Law" thing was a bit "tee-hee-ish" but I never thought it was that irritable,,, to each his own.
I will abide though,,, No "Man Law" titles will come from me.
:notworthy:

I agree with the powers that be. They and the GANG make this site what it is, several levels above some of the other sites. If you don't agree, find some where else to play.
Thank you, Rob!
what is being banned, the title ' man-law' or the posting of pics of new bows?
oh man, thank you for helping to end my biggest peave in TRADITIONAL (not trad!!!) archery and the stupid manlaw thing.
Cary
It was sorta like hearing "wassssuuuuup" all the time. Faddish.
Demeaning? Well, yes, in that it plays on the stereotype of men being visually oriented and not capable of reading Trad Gang for the articles. :rolleyes:
Dictatorial? Yep. Can he? Evidently.
Big deal?
Not the hill for me to die on. Sorry, no pics. :D
Killdeer~what did somebody say about absolute power? No, that was Shawn... :p
:biglaugh: I just don't believe this stuff. How do you people sleep at night? :biglaugh:

Read the very first post in this thread.
Titling topics "man law" is OUT.
Showing and discussing yer bows is still WAY IN.
Once again Rob is taking his "position" as moderator much to seriously,, give it a rest,,Frank
"My new bow" will get as much response, if not more.
Good for you Rob
Ron
Coming soon...
I got a new bow!!! :bigsmyl:
Rob is the guy who makes this place work on the old monitor, so keep that in mind.
The "Man Law" thing was already old when it bled over to here. Trad Gang has it's own personality, if you need a "Man Law" fix it's not hard to find one elsewhere among other things. Respect is for everyone here, not just us guys.
Now Killie did you post those pics yet?
Politically correct, who is running for president on this site !
Please could you defined MAN
:bigsmyl:
Carl
Rob
Oh, and also - because I can :wavey:
It's time to puff out your chest and delete this thread. I served my country and feel that it is every americans right to free speech. That being said, if you feel that I need to be kicked off tradgang have at it.
What pics? I'm a gurrrllll. :p
That's the greatest thing about this country. If you don't like the rules here, you can always go somewhere else.
Can we make "dude" illegal too? :D
Steve
When my daughter got her new bow I started the post with "Girl Law", that should have solved the problem. Let's delete this political correctness post and move on.........Jeez
Person law????? And no dude? :knothead:

"Oh, and also - because I can :wavey: " - Well, I meant what I said, no more and no less and I'm sorry you took that comment personally.
When it comes to Trad Gang, the difference between you and I is that you are a guest in my house.
And so you need to abide by the house rules.
Else, you are certainly free to find someone else's house that'll make ya feel more comfy.
It's really that simple, and I don't know what else to tell ya. Sorry.
I served my country because I believe in the rules. I am new to tradgang and it is the greatest. Man law is childish and demeaning, so is because I can. IMHO this thread needs to be deleted.
Saweeeet "Thank God" and the moderators for this one! :clapper: :clapper: :jumper:
Now lets remove this whole subject!
I think some would agree the term "Good ol boys" is starting to fit here.

No, that would only have sped up the action that was taken today.

This 'man law' thing is NOT about 'political correctness'. It's about perpetuating a silly topic title that needed to get stopped sooner than later.

Interesting comment from someone who's only been here 2 months.
Bowhunterfromthepast,...I recon you have rules in your house, and have the right to carry them out, and not invite back those that disrupt your household??? Free speech does not apply here, if it did, the last thing this place would be is a trad bowhunting site.
Bowdude...based on your frequent negative comments here you really don't like Trad Gang do ya???
Got a comment?.....email me.
Just bringing this back up so all can see again, as I just edited a "Man Law" title.....
Since Guru brought it back up, I'd like to stress that is wasn't the 'man law' title in itself, but the WAY over use of it in titles. It had gotten out of hand, and the over whelming number of titles with that phrase was taking away from the topics as they all started to run together.
Thanks.
