Firstly, Not Necessarily.

Secondly, I take issue with this.

It was very regrettable that Carlsen Highway was banned. But I have to say that in the end, it was self inflicted.

He had an attack of the red mist that caused him not care about the consequences of what he said.

We all have those moments in life. We say things we shouldn't to friends, family, workmates, and others.

And the consequences come back to bite us.

If we are mates on here we should also forgive and try to do better in the future. Friendships are precious.

I have had 3 days off to do what I liked this year. When you work 7 days a week, every day is Friday. As welcome as the offer is, and it is very welcome and appreciated, I owe it to my family to spend my limited time off with them. I still have to get myself wife and baby to the North Island. I agree that online personas have little to do with people in real life and it is good to meet in person. I do however think that how you treat people here or how you conduct yourself in general is not completely irrelevant. If you guys so desperately want to meet me, you know where I live.

Seems a bit of an excessive an about face to be outright insulting me in one thread then inviting me to travel to the North Island literally 5 minutes later.

The standard of company this place offers appears to have taken a major dive of late. A forum that bans the likes of Carlsen Highway is doomed to wither and die.

Please stop antagonizing each other or we'll just start banning/deleting instead of responding. No one has time or gives that much of a damn about it to bother being nice. It's childish and a bad look for everyone.

@Wildman how bout you call a few of them out as bullies often dont realize that they are bullies.

I said I wouldn't reply to this thread again, but seems it got a little side tracked after the Carlsen's rant earlier in the week, seems that CH got the wrong end of the stick re the Toby Shoot, he didn't seem to grasp the concept that people were trying to help & give support ( after all how often do people run a shooting event in NZ that has 50 plus entrants ) & then it turned into an old fashioned forum shit fight.

Everyone is different & have their own opinions but of course a few passionate TGS supporters took offence to an attack on someone / something that they love & feel very passionate about, so hence the response & fallout.


The intention of this thread was to be positive, so please guys let it go & just look forward to catching up in October, I'd like to think of it as a happy event where anyone is welcome & not excluded, Chur

doesn't the toby shoot already have its own thread/s?

Geez, what have I missed? Carlsen banned?

Yes he is. There was more drama than a telenovela.
