Who you be talking about? Perhaps we can agree on something.

This is a Pretty Good Example
About how the Baja Nomad community can (maybe) be self healing.
Jesse is a long-time poster who is very knowledgeable about life and politics in Baja and who shares that information with the English posting Nomads.
He gets targeted by trolls (or maybe worse) and got tired about getting harassed about his posts on Nomad.
In a matter of hours, there is more than a thousand views, several hundred posts, most of them positive.
I don't know if Jesse is a little bit less p****d off by now, but the Nomad community has responded in an overwhelmingly positive manner, even if it
is in a predictably jokey, goofy way.
Jesse, my dos pesos, just delete messages from people that upset you, but please keep us Nomads updated on your restaurant and your other projects.
Sincerely yours, Gypsy Jan

Yes there are a few things and people that I disagree with but all in all it is a great way to know Baja and contact people that feel the same.
I don't know you but I suggest you just ignore the people/conversations you don't want to enter and concentrate on interestings things such as photos,
camping, restaurants and points of interest.
I think this is a very informative board and I have gained knowledge by being a member.

Pure bulllsht, Larry. If Noobs want to come on board with legitimate questions or answers, they won't be molested. Their input will be
welcomed.....graciously.
The idea, propagated by you and some others, that this place will eat out your heart if you dare say a word, is crap. You only support the BS idea
that the Nomad board is dangerous territory.
Why do you do that? You only fortify the myth....the lie.
New posters here are judged by their first post....be it question or answer. It's on them to make their place here.
Some do.....Some don't, but this isn't hell on earth.
Have your friends get on board and join us. If they have the balls for Baja, they have the balls for BajaNomad.

With the interests, history, eclectic backgrounds, enthusiasm and the variation of fields and intellects that are represented in the membership of
this forum it should be a premium site of knowledge and communication that would be unrivaled in its context.

Sure Dennis, and please consider that this is my, a Newbi’s experience and perhaps I am just not on the same wavelength as some of the more prolific
posters.
I see attacks that are purely personal in nature, not relating to what I feel is the intent of the forum and certainly having nothing to do with the
overall context of the group as a whole, in many cases not even relevant to the immediate thread. I find that distracting, discouraging and
disappointing.
Appreciate your question and, always, your input to the overall well-being of the forum.

Ohhh...hardly still a disconnected Noob. Doug should have sent your code ring and diagram for the secret Nomad handshake after your 75'th post. Don't
tell us you didn't receive it???
Thanks for your cordial reply.

Jesse has left the house, so any discussion here to get him to re-evaluate his issues with this forum is soooo not going to happen. I have seen
several people leave then they return with new energy to withstand the winos, dinos and dingbats that drive them nuts here!! Will make sure I see Jesse at his place of business on my next visit to La
Paz. Take Care & Travel Safe----- "No Hurry, No Worry, Just FUN" bajafun777

I have to admit that sometimes it is difficult to pass by the Post.
Could it be that Doug could make the off Topic completely out of Site and open only to those who agree if they go onto the Board???
Most of the Posts by the "Bunch' is all False Lies made up to get attention. Ifeel for some of the Youngsters who get on their Threads and beleive all
the Bull Puckey, but some do beleive it!!
What a Shame.

AMEN! i REMEMBER when we would share baja info on this board. Then it got into how we did this to the landscape.... and how we were so bad to the sea
.. and how we destroyed the turtle swim to verde bay. all I know is I love this place and want to share it with my friends and family, and throw out a
couple tips to my fellow baja travelers. The rest of you are destroying a good thing.

He is not DENNIS.
Perhaps it's time to change the subject to something with a little less friction. Turtle soup. Yes...let's talk turtle soup and throw in some words
about regional snake transfers to other regional grounds to see what sort of weird science it produces.
Old people are like the old cars, made of some tough stuff. May show a little rust, but good as gold on the inside.
