What happened to the TOG Forum?
I am so confused. Which in my present state of Old Grouse is not hard to do, thank God for blended Scotch Whiskey.
I have been trying to figure out what happened on TOG. But I can not. Something about a take over, a coupe, a bunch of deleted messages, a lot of name calling and lots and lots of bad blood.
Dang it, I just discovered Airforce rifles and now all this s-it hits the fan.
What gives fellows and ladies?
I have learned a lot in my limited time on TOG, and even bought some cool stuff from some members. I learned I like the idea of a stock Airforce rifle since I have no idea mechanically or otherwise how to change one. I would probably end up with a nice non-working Talon-SS that was only good for use as a club.
Well, hope I don’t p-ss no one off on this greenish/yellow talon place, I was just hoping someone could give me the readers digest of what is going on.
Thanks for listening,
Paul G.
P.S. Since I live in Texas and no one around here appreciates “BB-GUNS” my only source of ideas and stuff is the net. I want as many sources as possible. I am BI-website-uality. LOL

I agree Rob, I have not given up on TOG. But I did nothing over there and dozens of my posts to the “damned” got deleted (by he whos name should not be spoken). Why waste time posting, if its just gonna get capricously deleted? (my spelling sucks!!).

I’ve not given up on the TOG just yet. It’s not the place it used to be, but I still have hope for it.
Lots of questions and lots of misinformation. Myself, it’s hard for me to dig through to find the truth so I’ve chosen not to dig for now.
Meanwhile, ‘the damned’ as I’ve jokingly labeled them, who created this forum, has graciously allowed me to visit. I’ll be on the TOG as well and will not give up on it so long as I’m welcome there….
I can still be the spelling nazi though right?
😀
Yah What Bart said! The advantage for all of us, is that there is no monopoly on Airforce Gun forums — you now have a choice! And that is a good thing!!
With a choice, no one person can be “The Soup Nazi”
“No soup for you!! – come back one year!”

Hmmmmm, that has a nice ring to it: “THE DELETED ONES”
Sounds a bit like yoda 😀
It seems what has happened recently is the climax of a long-standing disagreement of some of the more prominent members/mods of the TOG with the owner regarding his management of the TOG.
The owner didn’t take this too kindly, resulting in the deletion of pretty much everything and everyone remotely critical towards him.
The deleted ones and their “followers” are establishing a new, less troublesome home for us Talon/Stealth enthusiasts.
That’s it in a nutshell, it was a hell of a lot more complicated, and still is ^_^
