Well if she comes after me I'll get the strong arm of the law after her. And if that doesn't stop her I'll challenge her to a joust, a Lance being my weapon of choice!

Well, from time to time I've kinda wanted to address this issue anyway, so I'll hijack this thread and address it here.  As a general rule, I think you probably wouldn't want to hijack someone's FTC thread or Showcase thread or For Sale or Wanted thread.  And posting a lot of off topic messages in a Troubleshooting thread could make it hard to follow the diagnosis and treatment discussion, especially in a thread that might or could have eventually become a Must Reads selection.  Some threads have not become Must Reads just for this reason.  And I wouldn't think you would want to hijack a serial number thread, especially before Mica has had a chance to respond to the request.  And you might not want to clutter up a Dreaming thread if there's an ongoing discussion about a probable custom order.  And I would think that you wouldn't want to get too far off course in someone's Gigs thread.  However, any thread that starts out by talking about bikes or beer should definitely be hijacked as soon as possible.   Common sense and respect for fellow club members should generally be a good guide.

I personally don't see where this thread was hi-jacked per say. I do beleive it has strayed some from its original post but looking back over it I don't see one single post that stole the show so to speak. It has been fun though. I love the witt and humor of musicians.

Dave' was I wrong here?

I didn't think it necessary to post a second thread, but if protocol dictates that I should have I apologize. I don't want to step on any toes. I have nothing but love and respect for all here.

OK OK I apologies, Yes it was I whom first use the H word. However in my own defense it was kinda tongue in cheek. I didn't realise it would be taken so seriously. I just figured it was a tread for those of us who have played the ralley's. not a showcase for motorcycles, although those are some very nice looking rides! Sorry I caused such a stir.

Roy, as they say in Negril, every tings irie mon!

One would think that in the context of this club. Alembic basses showing up at the ralleys, are at least as important as the bikes themselves.
I guess the tread title left things a little to wide open. Not that i'm trying to push the blame off on anyone.Just innocent consequence going on I think.

Here's something to laugh about: Vantage Bass guitar on e-bay. Offered as Alembic style bass guitar. Check those details, stunning! The best thing is right next to condition, it says good... well ok but what comes after that is ludicrous, check for yourself: Click here
I think the price is fair though. Check this guy's e-bay store, there are some nice items there.
btw I think this thread IS a must read, Alice in chains! YES! (Check first message)

Roy,
 
Sometimes I take the wrong things too seriously and entirely miss the intended meaning within the context!  And Alembic basses showing up (and sounding off) ANYWHERE is important stuff!    It's all good...
 
John who HAS hijacked (inadvertantly) many a thread himself...

I was just making some suggestions.  Since the subject of hijacking had been brought up, I thought I would share some things I had been thinking of for a while.  Hijacking isn't necessarily a bad thing, and it often can turn out to be a good thing, taking a discussion to a subject that can be helpful to members.  For instance, a thread on a particular speaker cab might morph into a discussion on ohms and how that relates to matching power amps and speaker cabs generally.  So I don't think I meant to lay down any hard and fast rules or to suggest that any posts made in the past were particularly wrong.
 
I've noticed recently that Mica has changed the way she does FTC threads so that a particular FTC has three sections.  And I've realized that I've probably been posting in the wrong sections of those FTCs.
 
And being vegan, I don't want any cheese on my pizza; thank you.

Hey John  
My brother in dark Beer and Alembic basses.
Should you ever be passing through northern Az, drop me a line and maybe we can sound off at local jam, and have a beer or two. the darks here are generally becks in 24oz ers or Oakcreek brewery they make an awsome stout.

I will keep this short and to the point.
From what I have read, you seem to be a nice person and if I were to meet you I probably would like you enough. However as a moderator of this forum I see no difference in you than a politician.
In my humble opion, I feel you need to be lest biased, and stop running with the click,and I dont meen the track.
How's that for balls. I am sorry it had to come to  this. sometimes you just got to say what you got to say.

Now I got myself feeling bad. So in your defense I have to say that I can only imagine the job you have placed on yourself as a forum moderator and I have nothing but respect for your undertaking. I just hope I didn't upset you in my opnion. I feel you really are a good soul!

Can you be Politically Incorrect on an internet forum? just perhaps I should of checked before opening my big mouth.
