What site are you talking about? Marks forum where the main topic of discussion is Gulliver of Mars? I havent posted there or even here in weeks until yesterday and today. If by 'group of his members" do you mean fans of Marks? We're fans of Marks work first so it makes sense we'd spend more time there. Besides it doesn't look to me like Ron has cracked down attacks on other members. The opposite seems to be the case. In the weeks since I'velasted posted here they attacks have become as bad if not worse than the "Bad Old Days" of when Goodwin AKA One Eye Que ran rampant through here. Look over on the OL Forum here--plenty of posts about people preferring DL to OL and no OL fan freaks out.

yeah, um, folks? Quit it. Please. I'm on a business trip, I don't have time to spend on this. Executive summary: Some people think DL is better than OL. That is ok. Some people think OL is better than DL. That is ok. Some people think mushrooms and olives are acceptable things to put on a pizza. That is a crime against humanity. So please, agree to disagree, or flag it and move on.

Alright, listen fellas... this whole thing is entirely my fault... and I'm sorry for that... honestly, I couldn't care less if somebody was reading the Goosebumps series! I made a joke in bad taste and got angry over something totally pointless... so really now, lets move on from this... I've hung up my gloves and they will stay there from now on. And if I (the protagonist) can do it, so can you! Sun

No way did I attack Ron. Thats a very desparate ploy on your part. But you can't even give him basic respect so he can have the last word which I was willing to do...but you "apologized' so that makes it okay. I' was done with this arguement yaars ago. But you can go on having fun playing with dead things if you want.

BTS--We cross posted. You made a very gracious and mature gesture. I'm standing down.

back on Topic!!! I just got and read this book as i do with all DL novels..in about 2 hours! And i was very happy with it..a good story and i like the fact the companions are now re-equipped....it's a little puzzling why the hellhounds were instantly loyal to the Sheriff...and i'm sure it was a way to have another story be written later..but what happened to their kill instinct they were running 100's of miles for? could have been done differently..but on to the next book! I only dislike the fact i devour the books so fast and they only come out every few months..i could read a new one per day! Guess it is too much to ask

Funny you should say that JMD.I read them fast too,so I go back and read the old books as a time filler in between new ones.

lol... sadly I am not so much of an uber-fan... I wish I had all of the DL, but I just can't afford it! Amazon has good prices, but the shipping is horrendous ya know? A book for a penny still costs me 5 bucks in shipping! How does that work?! It's probably not so bad though, I'm just a cheap sumbitch! LOL! Sun

i've been lucky that i got into DL and OL right from the start...1st printing of PTH...so i hsve just spent the $6 every other month for like 18 years...some of my local bookstores have had new ones here and there..but Amazon is where i've gotten most...dedication costs $$

I actually only own the first 54 books or so JMD.(just started reading again at Plague Lords)
I read them between 17 and 14 years ago so they are like reading brand new books to me now.And frankly,the first ones (33 or so)written by LJ are way better than the latter and especially the current ones!
BTS,I don't know where you started in the series bro,but I have the first 50 or so and since you are my friend man maybe I can mail the ones you need to you.Maybe we can swap some if you have any I missed?Just a thought.I would never make this kind of offer bro,but you are one of the very few people I trust and has not been an ass to me like YOU KNOW WHO.LOL!!! Mr."Capital D"LOL!!!!!!!

I listened to Ron and dropped it, why don't you? You want to continue? Send me an IM, I would be happy to oblige!

Actually I was gonna send you an Im as you did start this whole thing?I am kinda sick of it though so yeah,let's quit.I am done if you are,ok?However if you asking me to send you an IM is some kind of threat?I am not that worried bro.That aside,I hope we can be civil from here on?

LOL! A threat? C'mon! Relax! All I'm saying is that if you want to continue to attempt and provoke me I would be happy to continue discussing how you feel I have wronged you in some way, but in PRIVATE and with respect to other board members.

Nah man.I really aint that concerned enough to want to keep fighting.I am really here for friends not enemies dig?
I do not feel like you "wronged"me as you say.Just that IMO you did fire the first shot(verbally)Like I said though Mike.I do not hate or even dislike you,just that I am not here for insults or arguing ok?
Tell you what bro.Here is a peace offering.Since you obviously know your firearms very well join the gun group. We can have friendly talks instead of hostile ones.Cool???

Well I like that everyone is gettin along now,Although the last few months posts have made for some great readin.Its kinda been like a DL's book,there was a time when we didn't know what the hell the "group" was doin or where they were headin and we also lost a member so to say.Some thought it kinda sounded like older books, but alas,in the end most survived till the next book.I say this in jokin way but its ture.........
