Greetings, I joined a few modelling pages/groups on Facebook, some general and a few specific subject. Well, a day ago, I replied to a post about a video of an armored firefighting vehicle. I stated that it wasn’t anything to get excited about as it was over twenty years old. It turned out that the poster was the ‘owner’ of the FB (no rivet counters) page. He apparently was offended by my comment and replied with an expletive or two and an accusation that I was a know it all. I thought his comments were out of line and inquired if maybe Santa had relieved himself in the guy’s stocking. At which point he (Danny Scott Prejoles) banned me from the page - I’m so proud!

Some people take the Internet too seriously.
In proper Internet argument fashion your now required to start a competing FB group with opposite rules and regulations calling out the former FB group as the reason for your new and even better group. lol
Good luck.
I’ve always wanted to get banned from a FB page… can I have a link please?
Started yesterday to get banned from a 4x4 forum, have not heard from either a mod or the knothead yet, but hopes are holding. More comments are in order I guess.
Was the video about a guy who bought an old soviet tank hull and turned it into a forest fire fighting machine?
Wow… some folks take it way too serious.

You know, this kind of stuff happens all the time, but I honestly don’t think that it’s any classier to name the person here and try to defame him; after all, we ARE only hearing YOUR side of the story here. And it certainly invites a “flame war” to start if he gets wind of your posting here. [^o)]
Come on, Greg; why don’t you take the high road here and edit your post and remove his name from it? It would be a really mature thing to do. [:)]
Colin: it was a T-34 hull with two MiG-21 engines mounted on it for putting out oil well fires post Kuwait war. It was converted by a Hungarian company.
Ahhh Facebook… Exactly what the Internet was invented for…
So, we can blame Facebook on Al Gore??? Maybe? Could be? [:D]
Nah… Everything is “W’s” fault… Still… 
To the powers that be, that was a joke, not a political statement
I always blamed it on the Army. (to the powers that be,I MEANT that,lol)
Rex
GI grits and GI gravy…
Gee I wish I’d joined the Navy
hahaha
“Army, Navy, don’t be Blue”
“I hear the Air Force is _________up too”
edit,okay, okay I will be good (it’s hard to do this with your spy “looking at me mean”, methinks the lady doth not approve, lol)
Oh the days of non PC cadences…
“Model A Ford and a tankful of gas…”
“Three miles up, three miles down…” Oh never mind… LOL!
Hey, stik, did ya’ll ever sing the cadence for “I Wanna Be A Recon Ranger”?
just about every day we sang it that we ran PT…
“I wanna be an airborne ranger, I wanna live a life of danger, I wanna go to Vietnam, I wanna kill some Charlie Cong…”
Heehee! Those seem to be completely different words from what we used in the Marines!! [proplr] Unprintable here, of course…
