    I finally have officially dropped out of Glocktalk.As nice as some of the people there are,I`m sick of reading the vitriolic hyperbole of the rest.The only regret I have is that I didn`t do it sooner.I haven`t felt this much relief since I got rid of my ex wife.YEEEHAWWW!!!
    In the area in which I now reside,when I`m placed in a group of four or five guys,I`m known as "the smart one".God help me.

    Wow....haven't been over there for awhile but haven't felt a need to drop out. Care to share what specifically triggered this?

        better than I was, I tried at least a dozen times a few years ago to sign on to glock talk and they would not let me in. I was never banned from there as I was never a member but someone in the mod group made sure I never got there either. Glad I didn't get on there now..strange bunch over there, for sure.

          I never got their registration e-mail so, though I could log-in, I was never allowed to post: This was a "good thing" as I never had the chance to retrogress to knuckle-dragging status by participating in name-calling, mall-ninja, adolescent dialogue. I did think some good folks (and posts) were there but, on the whole, the forum is not worth much in terms of information that interested me. It could be quite funny, however.

            I don`t know if I have the skills to properly put my reasons on paper but I`ll try.I guess it was an overall feeling of negativity that I got from a lot of the contributers.I didn`t post there very often because of it.It seemed that many of their members could do nothing but try to insult other members and tear down anything they could.I won`t have a whiner or complainer around me very long because all they do is try to drag people down there with them.Mean spirited people are as common as dirt and can leave a tremendous amount of damage in their wake.Glocktalk had some interesting aspects but for me they were far outweighed by the petty bickering that goes on. For these reasons I felt that I realy didn`t have any contribution that would matter a jot or a tittle to most of them and I opted out.I wish them nothing but the best and I`m sure they won`t miss me any more than I will miss them.If I have a question about one of my Glocks,I`m sure it can be answered here.If it`s a problem that can`t be fixed,I can always buy another gun.

              I feel like dietrich about glocktalk,I visit there to learn as I visit other forums for the same reason.I have never posted there,I have seen them hell hack posters on other forums because they didnt like what the poster had to say

                  I read over there, but never joined. It's been a long time since I was in the 3rd grade. I do have a ( whispering) Glock tho. I do keep it hidden in my truck. LOL

                    I'm a member, but the sheer volume of posts is the reason I'm not more active there.. by the time I read a thread, there have been 3 people who said what I would say, and 15 rebuttals! I very rarely even read all of the threads with new posts on any given day... I'll just skim for something interesting...

                      It's not that bad...

                      I'm registered on GT as well, like everything else in life, you just need to ignore the BS, and they do have one of the busiest classifieds out of all the forums.

                        I am a member on quite a few gun forums... but only read and post to informational threads on 2... this one and taurusarmed.net... both are very civil and actually seem more interested in helping people rather than insulting them. elsiepea is another good one but don't have that gun any longer...

                        Congrats to KT for their pleasant and helpful attitude... which says everything about the regulars here! Big Thanks!
                        Thx,
                        Scott

                          them there guys down south can't even give a person driving directions if they have to say NORTH. they just point in that direction and say " thatta way"

                          Course I guess if u figure population percentages there are far more GAYS AND LESBIE'S in KEY WEST "SOUTH" FLORIDA!!!!!

                            I only checked the site out one time and never tried to be a member there. Some of the posts and replies just seemed so childish and combative I though this is BS at it's finest. There is no need for that keyboard commando attitude. Thanks but no thanks. There are to many other good sites like this one right here to share and learn from without getting into any of that nonsense. JMHO..

                              That's interesting... I dropped out of GlockTalk a long time ago for the same reasons. They do have some strange folks over there! I think these individuals whole purpose in life is to mess with other folks. Not wanting to sound like a softy... but some of those folks can be downright hurtful! There are some good folks over there but.... they seem to be in the minority.
