It’s the people like you Colucci who drive people like me away from this forum. There’s about as many members of this forum that I can count on one hand that I respect and seem to have some connection with and that seems to be shrinking.

I think this says more about you than them, if I’m honest.
How? Specifically, what have I done to “drive people like [you]” away from the forum"? Genuinely interested in answers here, because this is a pretty big accusation.
Enforced long-standing forum policies whether or not members agree with them? Yep.
Answered your training questions and offered solutions to help you reach your goal? Yep.
Created threads to highlight the fact that “HIT fans” have a bunch in common with “Non-HITters”? Yep.
Encouraged all members to participate in the types of threads that they’ve always talked about, like posting pics instead of remaining entirely anonymous? Yep.
What else? Please.

Chris, you’ve heard me bitch enough times on here by now that you ought to know why I don’t think you are a good moderator. If it’s a requirement of this forum to like you or your moderation then kick me off , other wise please ignore my posts! I have no desire to discuss anything with you or be lectured by you.

The river of tears that will be shed at your departure will only be rivalled by the amount of sarcasm dripping from that statement.

How are you getting along after the tornado?
I’m curious about this as well. Family/property back up and running?
Smashed green house fixed, new roof on house , travel trailer totaled etc etc and today I was trying to move some giant heavy logs from the 9 trees we lost out of he path so I can start getting ready for Christmas. We are all healthy and the damage has been mostly corrected but it’s left a tole on our sanity. Thank heaven for good insurance! I don’t know how people survive their house being destroyed?

Yes, you’ve been bitching pretty steadily since you arrived. But I don’t think you’ve ever actually made a case beyond simply not liking forum policies which have been in place for 15+ years.
I’m still very interested to hear how you think I’m “driving people like you” away from the forum. You can e-mail Mods@T-Nation.com with any input.
Man, if liking me became a requirement for posting, I can think of about a dozen guys that would snap out of existence Infinity War-style. So, no, that’s not a thing.
However, anybody who thinks “this place sucks, the people here suck, and the rules here suck” is not someone we want here. You need to understand that before continuing to participate on this site.
I literally cannot ignore anyone’s posts. Literally.
I’m not trying to lecture, just (once again) trying to explain how things work here. But you do realize this is like telling the highway patrolman “I don’t need you lecturing me about speed limits”, right?

The other day Wanna Be asked me how we were doing after the tornado and Dr Darden had said to remember there is life past training and it really got me to thinking and it hit me that all these recent things like the pandemic , our tornado destruction and my situation at work ,etc , etc have turned me into one cranky old of bastard! Since the pandemic started I haven’t slept well inspite of drugs the doctor gave me. I wake up in the middle of the night thinking about everything and I have a hard time getting back to sleep. I’m always feeling sleep deprived. Sometimes I feel like “ I’m laying on the pavement, thinking about the government” ha ha !
Thanks to the tornado I had to pile tons of junk on top of my exercise equipment so I haven’t got to use that stuff much. The pandemic and reorganizing at work has taken a tole in on my work enjoyment. The Santa gigs I used to do have been cancelled over and over again, and all this insanity with the government keeps me in a constant state of stress…Nothing seems to go right these days . It’s been a bad time for me and unfortunately I’ve been taking my frustrations out on everyone around me like you guys so I apologize if I offended you.
Why I haven’t put more stuff on my workout log is mainly because I have nothing to report. My workouts these days are 3 or 4 quick sets with a few dumbells at lunch time, if I find the time. Im going to try and work more on my attitude and muscles.

I wonder if anyone else gets the reference? The pumps don’t work because the vandals broke thr handles!
Best luck to you. Appreciate hearing your willingness to readjust.
Sometimes weathering the storm is the easy part. It’s the aftermath that can be tough.
Take care man.
Maybe have a go at some of those blown down logs and whatnot. That can be a he’ll of a work load/work out.
