Possum Belly, I invite you to PM me and I will give you my phone number to call me. I have nothing to do with this new ownership group. And although I am a long-time digital marketing strategist, I am appalled by what they have done.

I bought my property in Southeastern Missouri in 2011 and found this site in 2012. I have learned many things from HT, but I have never posted much. Really hardly at all since I didn't think I had much to offer. Grew up in St. Louis County and have always been a city boy.

No thanks, I have O interest in talking to you. Just seems odd that you would come out of the woodwork at this time.

I guess I get a little worked up when people abuse their positions, lie, cheat and steal.

I couldn't sit on the sidelines.

You must have read me wrong. I think this should be on every subforum. Its being hidden to end the conversation. No apology needed as I usually lurk without signing in. Had to request password to even comment today. Spend hours here everyday and this conversation needs to continue. Feel free to pm me too but again think you misread what I wrote.

I think this should be posted and stickied in every forum section.

I have no desire to censor you or delete your thread in any way. I'm perfectly fine with any discussion you'd care to have on this topic and will answer any questions I can but it is my understanding that Angie is only responding to questions in the Admin forum and Buddy Steve doesn't like answering hard questions.

wr - that is why I provided a link to where I thought questions were being answered. I could have been wrong. I also requested that they didn't respond here as I knew that is what the site desired.

I just want people to understand and be "in the know."

I like HT and have gotten lots of great advice and ideas from this place.

Take it to the admin section!

Whoa- so this is what it looks like when you don't know who to trust. Seems to be a theme lately all over.

Justifiable paranoia sets in quickly. Trust is not noticed until it is lost.

I think the rub was there was lack of information to your motives and it came across curt and authoritarian. the use of more detail and emoticons could be useful. I think the touchiness that some of us have is justifiable and warranted.

Why dirty up yet another sub forum. if people don't know whats going on they sure as heck can SEE at the top of pages for things. They are adults after all. Course some on here are not ACTING IT.

I appreciate you opinion but as mod of this for, I'm pretty fond of free speech and if someone wishes to discuss something that doesn't exceed site limits, I'm okay with that.

If you feel it is unacceptable, I'll be happy to discuss it with you further in the mod forum.
