    If not for many in this forum it is possible the issue with the easy targets or missing bar on the machines in Tucson would have flown way under the radar. But, this year it made the December minutes.

    Then there is the alleged cheating fiasco and fake targets in WV and PA....again it made the minutes. Albeit slap on the wrists.

    The joker shooting from the 18 at Sparta....would that have made the news without an open forum?

    Without a forum I would not have known how the ATA screwed over the life members by reneging on the life memberships and voting.

    Those leaders you have that think you bitch too much are the folks that need booted out of the organization.

    Yes....blame all that on the forum!

    All good things to see in the December minutes, but to suggest it is because of this forum is farcical.

    The meeting was held before this forum went live.

    It was published afterwards and in very good detail or at least much better than before. And this is not the only forum that watches.

    And we still are watching. That rubs some delegates the wrong way.

    Fezzik, when you go back to the wannfutzes will you be straightshooter or Fezzik. The statement that this is a sore spot for some delegates does strike a nerve.

    Neither this forum (wasn't even up and running) nor the other one had any bearing on the minutes. Its the effectiveness of the present EC.

    The delegates are not involved with this meeting. Only the EC.

    The delegate remark is directed to a delegate on the site that has been acting like a troll. Considering the punishments handed out for the fake / unscored target scandal. I might not use the word effective so quickly.

    Believing that the EC works best when not being supervised is a bit naïve. Are we not aware of what happened to someone that recently looked in those dark corridors.

    The delegates probably (I don't know either way) were not at the meeting, not physically anyway, but wouldn't you think the delegates had a little involvement? They are the ones that investigated the two clubs that had targets removed and got "slapped on the wrist" with shoot restrictions.

    Not trolling, just figured that since their names were in the minutes they had some kind of involvement. A good job BTW

    By all means, watch away.

    But to suggest the minutes were better written (which is a highly subjective opinion btw) b/c of this forum is simply grasping at straws now that your original assertion is undone.

    I am confident most see this.

    But you (Family Guy) used the plural form of the word "delegate" thus meaning more than one.

    Yeah I know the whole and real story of that individual.

    Candidly I wasn't sure I understood this post till I was taking in the other site this AM.
