Ridge and canvas was very active, and good members here. In fact canvas told me what I need to do so people would not think I was just trolling, wonder what drove them away but hope they found a place they like, saying that so far this forum and Eddie have been nothing but cool to me.
I'm curious what made them leave? I never saw anything from them that made me believe they were done here?
You and me both. I honestly have ZERO idea what happened to these guys and even did a search to see if there was ever a time when I might have done or said something to either of them to get them all butthurt. I came up with NOTHING and would challenge you to do the same search. Like I said before, one of the last times I spoke to Canvas directly, it was by PM and he was asking me why I picked MR.Ty and 10frank9 as moderators. Before that, he had sent me an o-ring kit from PSC that I needed but never asked him for his help. As GCM 2 stated, he's even gone so far as to make and send out custom lanyards to me and a wooden desk name stand. There was once a long time ago when he went off the deep end as you can see here...
I do not ask for thanks for my service. I serve because I can and want to. Being in the military is an honor and not just a job or a paycheck. I was raised to say your are welcome when someone says thank you reguardless of what it is for. I too have had family members and friends who have served and I thank them every chance I get. I also thank the verterans and those who are on active duty in the forum. Why, becuase with out their sacrifice to their families and friends we would not have the opportunity to live in the greatest nation in the world.
With this being said, I shall log off and find a new home where freedom of speach is still available and giving ones thoughts are taken for just that. Thoughts and not looking for hands outs.
WAYALIFE,
Peace Out.
If you see a 2011 Black JKUS in Jacksonville with WAYALIFE on the windshield wave. Oh wait I am looking for someone to be nice to me.

But of course, his beef was with OverlanderJK and he later came back to apologize.
As far as Lee goes, I've sold him a t-case in the past, met him in person and I thought we got along well. Guess the joke was on me :idontknow:
Wow, just wow. I've been wondering why I haven't seen Ridge post in a while. That's just unbelievable, he's going on in his forum trashing people here but wants no drama there?! I think he's in for a rude awakening of what it's like to have to deal with all the trolls and losers Eddie does. I bet if his forum survives that he will find himself doing exactly the things he says he left this one for. I think Eddie handles the losers and trash talkers as well as anyone can because really is there a good way to handle them? Good for them to start their own forum if they so choose but to recruit/steal members from here while requiring them to remove their banners and decals and disown this forum that they were once a big part of is not just wrong it's about as literal to backstabbing as one can get without an actual knife. Low just low!
Like you, all this is news to me but really, I'm happy that he's found the will to start his own forum and I sincerely wish him the best of luck. Be nice if he would refrain from recruiting members from this forum but honestly, if anyone wants to follow his lead, I would encourage them to do just that.
Ok sooo people are crazy. (Not that I claim sanity) ..
I'm not on enough to have a drink and follow the show in its entirety, but the scenes I do catch are usually just comical.
With that being said, I Will take actually wheeling/camping/sightseeing/hanging out with all my WAL friends -new and old, east west and in between- anyyydayyy over trying to follow the online squabble either!
Hey Julie, I hope your travels are going well, that your rear drive shaft is holding up and that you haven't been having any other Jeep related issues. Can't wait to see you and Andrew again
Wow.... just wow. Thanks for sharing that with us. I had no idea there was so much venom brewing in that guy.
That being said, I just wanted to say again how much I appreciate your help on the Rubicon. It was great to wheel and camp with you and I hope we can do it again soon :yup:
