I like it! I've heard it before and have always liked it. Where they a Jesus freak offended that you included someone else alongside Him, or someone that was offended you included Jesus?

LOL..here you go Ric, reply with "(Insert Complainer's Name Here)What, your respect for both died along with your sensibility and respect for others beliefs?" and wait for the flames to get bigger. :D

YotaFun,
I totally agree.

troyboy162,

some_odd_girl,
I have no idea, just a very thin skinned baby, lol

NorCalBorn,
lol, that would be funny, I think Im going to just leave it, and/or deactived my account on that forum,,, they are the type, if you dont have a radflo from overland warehouse, you have junk, they seriously dont like it when someone posts up another suspension company, lol

maybe this is because im a product of the 1990's. but i just dont care enough to get offended about anything.

people who do have too much time on their hands, and take themselves entirely too seriously.

Freedom of Religion
Freedom of Speech

But keep in mind that the constitution only tells the government what it can't do and it does not apply to private entities. The constitution has nothing to do with things posted on a non-gov owned forum, other than it has become standard practice for society to loosely follow the first few sentences of the first few amendments.

Not that I have a problem with Ric's sig, I'm just pointing this out. :)

I don't see how it is offensive?
Both of them are true IMO. If the truth hurts, SUCK IT.

Agreed Steve,
but everyone is free to also express there own opinion on the internet,
the WORLD WIDE WEB.

This person that thinks it is offensive should just deal with it.
Unless it is directed straight at them, there should be no need for it to bother them.

Sean I am with you there.

I have sigs and avatars disabled in my settings... I find it very effective! Maybe the gentleman should do the same for his account since he is easily offended.

No, no links and no forum wars. UY gets along with the 120 guys and we don't want any bridges burned. :)

most people really dont care, what someones sig says, unless it points someone out by name and is mean about it, hell I dont care what anyones sig say, but you know how some people get lol

First, keep the sig line, Ric. I had the same one for a while a couple years ago. You don't have anything inappropriate in it, and therefore no harm done.

Second, no BS-ing between UY and another forum. You're grown men. If you want to be treated like it, then we expect you to act like it. Act childish and you'll get a "time out" like a child. Enough said.

Carry on! :D

EDIT:Got a polite warning [ie: :ban: ] in the forum my post link was about as well as what Robinhood4x4 said in his reply below. I agree in a way that we're being childish and lame ourselves in acting in a similar manner./EDIT

[Short Version]Ric don't get all down or drop a board b/c of that sort of crap because IMHO with you in here it isn't just you personally, I am thinking people get cooped up b/c of the weather and drink and smoke the wrong stuff or too much and lash out b/c of personal insecuruties due to lack of motivation and sheer boredom.

Crap, in some way that term applies to each and everyone of us in here excluding the ladies.. :rofl:

It is nice to be able to vent to those you have kinship in UY though..and yeah, you are right it is not proper forum etiquette as even I got warned for it some time back. We move on. :D

:rofl: serioulsy, someone on another toyota forum was complaining about my signature :headscratch:

Only two defining forces have ever offered to die for you:

1. Jesus Christ
2. The American G. I.

One died for your soul, the other for your freedom.

let me know if it is, offensive, or it hurts your feelings

Well Ric, the first time I read your sig on another board, I was inspired to express my gratitude to both of those forces. Perhaps beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder.

Believe what you want. I won't argue with you and tell you that your opinion is wrong. It's an OPINION, and therefore cannot be wrong since it is yours and yours only. However, I also have an opinion. As long as you're not offended by me saying that I DO believe in Jesus and God, then we don't have a problem at all. It's called FREEDOM and I respect yours as long as you respect mine.

Ric

01-11-2011, 09:50 PM

exactly, its a FREEDOM,, yet that forum does NOT allow, FREEDOM, cause someone didnt like me having that freedom..

I mean hell, if it bothers that person, he doesnt have to read it, hell, he could put me on his "ignore" list, then he would never have to see it :shake:

yet Im suppose to conform to him :headscratch:
I still havent even been back to that forum, dont even miss it, lol this place is (and always has been) 100 times better :thumbup:

Ya know, if you would just agree that Overland Warehouse has the best suspension in the world then none of this would be an issue.

A lot of people in this country confuse our freedom "OF" religion with freedom "FROM" religion. But they are wrong.
