PART 2: I'm new an your 50-post rule sucks! Please change it for my convenience.

This made me laugh lol I understand it, but wish I'd paid more attention in all the time I've been reading through the site instead of seeing some things I wanted in classifieds so I finally joined and was disappointed by this. I tried to pay 20.00, but I don't have PayPal so if the items are still available tomorrow I'm just going by my buddies shop so he can get on. I'll reach my 50 eventually. I wish the classifieds couldn't be viewed until you joined, then I wouldn't have ran into this problem lol. Good choice of words there though, made me laugh in my situation..

You can pay with out joining pay pal. If I remember you checkout as a guest.

This is worth repeating.

I'm actually glad there's the 50 rule. It saved me 200 bucks because I was ready to impulse buy lol and I only had to travel about 20 minutes instead of an hour and a half.

We joke and discuss “quality posts”, but I saw a very “quality” post from someone without the 50 today.

This is a good report on the food safety aspects. I would recommend checking the nutrients listed on the tag and comparing them to established guidelines for the nutrients. As a former nutritionist for a feed company I really disliked the feed and mineral supplements at TSC as they were generally a lower level of nutrients than what I would recommend. This is usually done for a price point product. Most formulations are done on a least cost basis. This can be good and bad. If the formula is not checked or given minimum and maximum levels of certain ingredients the quality of the pellet can be affected as well as the nutrient profile. The product will have established minimum and maximum levels of nutrients on the tag and possibly others not listed on the tag. But care has to be taken when substituting in different ingredients. If you need feed search out your closest Feed Store. There are several good options Kent, ADM, Purina, Cargill, Hubbard, Kalmbach are all good companies that could have a presence in the region. There are numerous others out there that I may be unfamiliar with.

Rural Suppliers; They Ain’t Who We Think They Are…

I have been reading this also on several sites , that feed from TSC could contain less nutrients than normal . I suspect it is in more feed from just at TSC , because everyone that I know that has chickens has reported that their egg laying had almost stopped .....Mine included ( we have 23...

I am not one to complain, but I do wish folks would just do a single item per "classified" thread.

Is it really that difficult to make a separate thread for each item?

I'm pretty sure the cost to the seller is the same.

Oh s#!t, someone hacked Bigred's account.

That’s obvious, not a single * in site.

I have an idea to help people with getting their 50 quality posts. I got the idea from South Park. Use chatGPT.

Maybe we could have the newbees enter a post lottery

Now that I seen it, yeah it's sloppy.

Do I spy another runner? In this case to sell something?

I think it's a great rule and totally understand. I mean, no one who would post 50 times could possibly be a crank, right? Most would just give up and take their comments/business elsewhere. Wait...that's a much better plan.

I always find it's best to eliminate anyone who disagrees with the group or who has some other point of view. I like my forums to be as narrow-minded, uneducated, and ignorant as possible, and those outside views and comments about thinking really interfere. Right?

I have question: Is there a discussion anywhere on this forum re whether or not assault rifles should be available to civilians? I have a couple myself, but I believe owning them is outside our 2nd amendment protections and frankly, not necessary. What do you guys think? (heh)

Getting banned from this forum for offering different view points isn't something that's going to happen to anybody.

What does happen sometimes is that somebody who doesn't like the rules breaks the rules, then whines about the rules, then levels personal insults against the people who made or abide by the rules, and then when they get banned they tell themselves they were just banned for offering a different viewpoint in order to nurse their wounded ego.

If I had to bet, I'm thinking that second thing might be about to happen to a certain somebody...

I bet most here believe it's silly to even discuss ideals about what is best for all if it involves in any way curtailing access to nearly any weapon. Right? This helps to explain the current bizarre phenomena plaguing our nation politically. The tendency to hide one's eyes or cover one's ears whenever we hear or see anything that is outside what we WANT to believe. It's a scary thing, but it's where we have arrived as a people...at least 30 percent of people.

So you do know that showing up to a party and spewing mildly offensive comments to your host is not a way to win friends and influence people, right?

And if you are so butthurt about taking the time to post 50 quality posts so that others can get a feel for who you are and whether they want to deal with you in a transaction, just pony up the $20 and become a site supporter.

Oh I'm quite sure many have been removed for just that. Now, the reason given for the removal may have been much different. I'll be gone very soon, without a doubt, and it will not be for calling names or doing any harm.
