NOMAD EVALUATION
Ok..Nomads.....It's become so dull around here, we have to invent interest and try to bring back some of the old-timers to participate as they did in
the recent past.
We've lost a lot of serious voices here and it's a shame because I feel many of them have gone their way as a result of the atmosphere here drifting
away from the point, being BAJA.
Other reasons have been the "nastiness" involved in discussions here. That's a result of Doug's permissiveness, but bless him for that.
Soooo...Let's hear what you Nomads have to say on this issue. Point fingers and lay blame where it belongs.
Let's find the infection that has stiffled actvity here and get things back to normal.
I offer myself as a place to start....I know Ken and Roger will have something to say on this, or not.
If others have opinions about me, this is a good place to voice them.
Civility is yours to consider.
Go for it, Nomads.
Voice your bich right here, right now. Let's hear what we think of each other.
Familiarity will bring us closer together.
What would JR say to this invitation ????

Well, I know that the snotty tone to some comments made here have made me more reluctant to post. I tend to lurk and read than to risk being jumped
on by certain people. Connie

Thanks, Connie.
I hope others will be as honest and forthcoming as you.

Mi dos centavos.
As a new member of this BB I feel that baja is more than well covered and the friendly banter is refreshing.
On the other hand, my wife says I lost my sanity since we came to baja full time so my opinion may be for naught.

The negativity has been a huge turn-off for many. We all are aware of what is happening in Baja there are blogs and boards that specialize in posting
that but when one is met with constant negative comments for stating a differing opinion and/or their private info is exposed that is uncalled for.

Your opinion, jak, is what my question is all about. It's what people feel about the atmosphere in BajaNomad.
Feel free to state your case.

Dennis, you are getting veeery PC hombre. Just imagine all of us (16,000 plus and growing?) sitting around a giant bar/pulqueria/bonfire with all of
us smiling and agreeing on everything. I'm not saying sameness and civility are the same thing but I will give up some space to beg to differ for the
thought that we are all of the same mind OR THAT WE WON'T SHARE HOW WE FEEL FOR FEAR WE MIGHT OFFEND. My way of saying I miss the old Dennis. That's
just me.

I also think Baja is still being covered well, but also think certain threads should be relegated to Off Topic.

I read the threads that I find interesting, and skip over the ones I don't.

Awwww.....thanks, Jorge. That was nice. The old me isn't gone. I just don't have the old gang to talk with anymore. They're gone. I have a feeling
I drove off half of them, but you're still here. That's cool.
Thanks for what you said and how you put it. You are the master of words.

Dennis...I'm sorry for my decision last week while at a biker bar.
Question For Nomads:
Does anyone know how to call off an anonymous hitman?
I do what the voices in my tackle box tell me.

This place is tamed............
And how I miss JR!
Negative remarks and wisecracks has always been part of this forum. It's tamed compared to 3-4 years ago! Yes...I was here too under a different User
name.
I find the current forum "entertaining" at times with these baited responses

There are times the whole format can fool you. When I looked at today's posts I flashed to one that said "Colonoscopy". The next thread is "Anyone
feel it?"

I'll deal with them as they come, Roger.
I sincerly apologize for my outrageous comments to you a while back. My behaviour was uncalled for. Although I won't forgive myself, I hope you will.

I am pretty new here. I sometimes hesitate to post.
I told my husband that sometimes I feel like I just stepped into Bates Motel.
It does get pretty nasty here. But hey If I don't like it I can go to another forum right?
It does take a very big person to apologize.
I have seen Dennis do so on many occasions.
I do not have much to feed into the forum about Baja as I have only spend my 30 years in one area. But I do know somethings.
I do enjoy reading many things about the Baja and everyone's opinions and all the pictures that are posted.
thanks Nomands
Irene
