That and her upright refusal to ever admit she’s wrong. When I meet someone like that it becomes a crusade of sorts haha. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Belo, there is a very simple solution to your problem. Hover over Growalot's name in one of her posts and click on "Ignore User". Check all the categories and boom! she goes away. You won't see any of her post's, et al. Nothing more to gnaw at you. You can just focus on contributing to the huntingny.com community. Now, if you don't ignore her, and you still continue to bitch about or talk about her, well then you must be doing so for the attention.

Father of 3 with a full time career needs attention. Do you not actually think it’s the other way around? She just insinuated that people quote the “grow block list” to purposely annoy her and get HER attention. Lol. Is it possible for someone to have a greater sense of self importance or paranoia?I don’t block Grow because shes harmless and entertains me. Not one time can you find where I’ve ever personally insulted or demeaned her. No forum rules ever broken. I just point out the bull and she doesn’t like it when people do that.

You say that you've never personally insulted or demeaned her. Well, in my opinion you've indirectly mocked her and called her a liar. Semantics. Point is, what you write about her, even if not directly addressed to her, is, for lack of a better work, "negative". An you aren't the only one that does this. All of these negative comments add up, and it gets to a point where it starts to detract from the community. That's why I suggested, for your benefit and for the benefit of the community, if you can't refrain from these negative comments, that you just block her. If you think about it, if it is truly attention she is after, your posts feed into that. I'm posting, not because I wish to defend Growalot, or attack you, but because I'm fed up in general with the growing negativity I've been reading lately. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommyc50 Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 ,man that reminds me of when i hunted hancock the guy across the road which i have a few choice names for would let his dog out he would see me park and the dog would follow me and bark until i was about 200 yrds in the woods . one time his kid comes out in the woods and says dont shoot my dog oh please dont shoot my dog .see im from the city hunting up there they like our money but not us so the locals would play silly games like that. but i was an outsider so all you could do was deal with it as best you can 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem hellbent on making your point, as off the mark as it may be. Were you on the debate team in high school by any chance? So let me make this simple for you. Let's assume you are completely correct and your facts have been 100% proven. The next step for you to take then is to hit the Ignore User button. You do yourself, and the board, a much greater service, by doing that then by your posts. By the way, I notice you have a label in your signature calling you a "Supporting Member" and "HuntingNY Supporter". I would assume that the "support" you give is financial? Because you certainly don't seem to support the board by promoting harmony, friendship and mutual respect amongst the board members. I have found a number of your posts to be contentious, demeaning and or belittling. I wonder how much your financial support to the board is, and if it's really worth it to the board's owner, given the damage your negative posts do to the board's brand value. At some point, your and others negative comments repeatedly directed at a certain person are bullying, and I am fed up with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also if you were as bright as you try to sound you will see no less than 10 or 12 members that say the same thing about the same member. As far as cash I have no problem with supporting for the last 5-6 years. So bottom line is you can keep making posts supporting those you say you are not or you can push the buttons and not worry about it!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goosifer Posted December 10, 2017 Share Posted December 10, 2017 Four Season Whitetails, do you have a reading comprehension problem? You still keep trying to prove and defend your "point". Your bullying is NOT justified no matter what you and others say. If you don't like what a certain member says, then just block them or report their post to a moderator. You don't have the right, no matter how much money you contribute to the board, to mock and belittle other members of this forum. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can think or care all you want but people will still call a spade a spade and as you can see there are 10-12 members that call that one a spade.

Now for you to keep harping on the subject instead of using the buttons that you told Belo to use just shows that you just want to keep this bitch going.

chrisw Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 My take on this... I do not have a hunger to belittle certain people and usually I can keep my thought to myself and move on but constant BS from anyone only goes so far with me. Eventually I'm going to call them on it. What I don't understand is why some people think Grow is so innocent? She can come on here and throw her weight around belittling everyone else's opinion but the second someone does the same to her, you're an A hole. She's made all sorts of remarks about members here and gets away with it unscathed, is it because she's old? A woman? Both? Let's not pretend she's some innocent woman incapable of rude comments or derogatory statements against law enforcement, forum members or her own distaste for NY sportsmen (as she's bluntly stated several times). It does get a little carried away at times but what doesn't? Are we not allowed to disagree anymore? She creates her own turmoil then when she gets lash back she cries bullying. I'm certainly on no crusade against Grow, but she just like anyone else will get criticism where due, the same as she gives out. My rant over.

Calling someone out on their BS as Chris so very well put it is not against the rules. Nobody that I have seen has personally insulted or attacked her as she claims. My invitation to find these attacks from me is still open. When you start countless topics a day you're opening the door yourself. My comment regarding race and religion is directed towards a portion of this site that has been allowed to continue for quite some time. So my question is simply... is it ok to post anti-Muslim propaganda and not ok to call an old lady out on her stories that don't add up? 7 minutes ago, Steuben Jerry said: So now you'll do to Goosifer the same as you do to Grow?
