I quit your crappy forum because of all the ******** who preach about catch and release like it's a religion despite state games laws allowing harvest. Then there's the fervor to buy more stuff and gear...It's sickening having all that shoved down your throat when you just want to learn a little. I have unsubscribed at least 6 times and still get your junk mail. So maybe this will help you remember.

I just want it my way and because I'm not getting it my way I'm going to let everyone know that I'm leaving. I hope it hurts your feelings.
Good bye! With an attitude like that, who needs ya!
Jeff
Aww man ! And with 16 post we were getting to know you so well.
wahhhh cry me a river build a bridge and get over it cya with only 16 post we wont miss ya
BYE
Just deal with it, I know C&R is the bible here but even I'll admit it has it's value. As far as subscribing, its optional in your user settings.
Sad really. I do not recall anyone berating anyone else for keeping some fish for the table. And even if they did, it's just another person's opinion. No one is telling you that you have to do this or that. It's just a discussion. And apparently, you have been less than willing to engage in this type of discussion, for what ever reason. I wish you the best regardless, as I'm sure most here do as well.

Silly, this is a bass forum, not a crappy forum.
Sadly this person will be allowed to breed and vote. *sigh*
Take care.
wow, way to walk away with class. Stay classy Pennsylvania. This guy pry loves Penn State and Joe Pa
what a waist.. that's not the way you quit a forum, if you really want to quit.
your suppose to get banned and the longer the ban the better a job you did, what a rookie.. your suppose to raise some hell poke some eyes and at least go out with a good show, it kinda sweet if you get to break every rule there is also before getting the boot
what a waist, i bummed out now. no show here people move along nothing worth following.
after reading the title i was expecting a thread about the person quiting crappy fishing (crappie) and joining the bass forum and bass fishing. guess i was wrong.
I have similiar views to the original poster, i keep a few fish every now and then, and i dont care what anyone on here says about it as it is legal. I also dont think you need 1000's of dollars worth of equipment to catch fish, but it sure would be nice to have it.
I am here for the good advice that is given out, the good articles, videos, gear reviews, classified, etc etc etc etc this is a very useful forum, but as with anything on the internet you have to weed through the not so useful info (like this thread)
Greatest translation ever Glenn !!

Sorry you feel that way dude. Im new here and have found this site informative and friendly. I've even made a trade with another member already. I plan on sticking around for the long haul.

Stiller, there is no need to be so dramatic with your exit. Just quit. You will not be missed, since most people weren't aware that you were here anyway. Bye!

It is a terrible shame that someone can so dramatically misinterpret a simple message such as catch and release, you are right, catch and release is not a law, but for a serious fisherman with a true sense of sportsmanship it shouldn't have to be. and as for your comment on people trying to get you to go out and buy things, as glenn stated, their not making you buy anything, it is just advertising. However I'm sorry that you have been offended.
CPR IS HERE TO STAY.More and more fisherman relize how imporant it is,As far as rods reels and baits can we really have enough...Great site here i just wish i had more time to be on.C ya
i catch and release myself im not capable of eating fish everyday of the week but i catch and keep also LOL... it is annoying when your say catching trout or whatevers on the dinner menu and someone there keeps hint hinting you that it would be good to let them go and then maybe you could catch a big one someday and your like really thats ok this is perfect size any bigger and it wouldn't fit in the pan.
i think ive seen more members here comment that they do the same and there nothing wrong with catching dinner so i don't get the c and r complaint really.. i mean there always someone out there thats is all hyped up on c and r but when they leave the lake everyone else is standing there like wow that guy has issues.

ZERO.
no
its a number that can be found somewhere in this thread?
Wow, if you don't like catch and release you don't have to practice it. I tend to keep some for the table every once in a while, but I don't get all bat sh** crazy over the catch and release topics on here. Also, no one is forcing you to buy ANYTHING that you don't want to buy. I have found quite a bit of good gear that I never knew existed just by reading on these forums. I have also gotten some great deals from the advertisers on this forum. You don't have to read the advertising and catch and release topics if you don't want to.
This site has been a fantastic resource for me, and I'm sure many others, to learn and grow as a bass fisherman. Great info about rods and reels and boats and much more. If you can't see that then you have no need to be here and I'm sure will not be missed by anyone.
ok im leaving till the morning before the girl kills me for sitting on the computer all night...
goodnight everybody..

Bravo Glenn!
Stiller, thanks for the laughs! I'm watching you Gaylord Focker!
"What? You don't like me. I don't like your little red outfit. It makes you look like a little demon baby. Maybe I'll get you a little pitchfork for Christmas, so we can put you on a can of Underwood ham. I'm sorry I can't make little poop sounds and I can't make little things that tell people when I want to do things. But I have a sign for you."
Awesome, Gene. Just awesome.
You get a gold star for proper translation.
You are an adult right? If you want to keep few fish for dinner, then just freaking keep the d**n fish. I am curious, who is making you buy stuff here? The sponsors here offer some great deal on their product, for example, NorthStar and Rage Craw. I have caught many decent bass on Northstar finesse jig, and the price is very competitive. you can't find deal such as 10% off for BR members anywhere else, you need to get your head checked out.
Tony,
is the number 16?
"I quit your crappy forum"
LOL That will show them!
I've been an active member for at least a couple years now, have over 2,000 posts, and this is the first post I've seen him make. He will not be missed.
Later... we'll see you next year for post #17.

Released into the oil
It still hasn't completely sunk in that he is gone. Anytime anyone experiences trauma, the best thing to do is to grieve and attempt to emotionally experience it over and over. If i choose not to think about it, i will be flooded with emotions later on and will be unable to control myself. Stiller, you will never know how much you hurt me. Your 16 posts will never be forgotten and have forever changed my perspective on fishing, marriage, and life. I say every night around 12 we all join together on this particular forum and talk about it. I wonder what he would have said had he just posted one more time. No, that thinking gets me know where. I hope he's in a better place. Maybe we will feel his presence when we reread this thread every morning noon and night.
Time to go and kiss my little girl Stiller Jr. goodnight. I will wait till she is older to tell her what happened.
shimmy, I have spoken with BR staff. Outreach programs are out of the question as we are down a member and no longer eligible for federal aid in this time of dispair. Buckle up little camper. It's gonna be ok.

That better be Bass or I ain't eating. LOL, looks like you over cooked the fish and under cooked the fries. And Lord only knows what you did to the peas.
Geez, how come I never get this much attention? Where's the love for me? I don't eat the bass, I just leave them on the shore to die a slow death and rot.
Hahahahahahaha!! Stiller if ANYTHING about fishing gets you that upset you don't need to give up this forum...you need to give up fishing!!
Shimmy...I am planning a candle light vigil for Stiller this Friday at midnight. You should attend, it really helps the grieving process. Just remember, he will never really be gone, his 16 posts will live in your heart forever.
I didn't read the very first post. Was some one unhappy ? Did I see someone post a picture of food on a wall clock ? Some one said Bye. Is there a party ? I love parties and cake. I'm inviting my buddy Stiller. Is this now a crappie forum? I love crappie fishing. They taste like bass. Cake is better. Stiller is not responding to my PM's. I guess he doesn't like cake.
If you're gonna go out, go out with a bang - start some Senko threads, rage about the A-rig, make some political comments.
I do not recall any of his posts nor an yof his input to other posts.
This Forum has great guys and gals and we do not need someone like this guy to give us grief.
I wish him well and all I can say is goodybe to rubbish.
Wow...I guess you put us in our place..............not comin' back huh........what a shame.......................moron.....
u mad
I want to go fishing with everyone on this thread! (Well, except the first guy.) I haven't laughed this hard in a long time!!!! (Released into oil, that was hiliarous!!!)
This is great forum, all the work the moderators do keeping this site going! All the advice I have read about, everyone has been super helpful with ideas and recommendations.
>implying we actually care you're leaving
>implying you're never gonna come back
>they always come back
Hey, I know this guy! I see him on the water all the time. He always leaves his trash behind on the bank and throws his empty beer cans overboard as he races across the lake without a PFD. Sometimes he cuts across your bow and cuts your line because he wants to move in where you're catching a limit. He sometimes violates the no wake rule when coming up to the docks and causes your boat to smash into the railing. When he sees you holding up the catch of a lifetime he gives you a dirty look or even the finger instead of congratulating you. Yeah, I know this guy, he's always about me me me!
I would like to say that not all anglers from PA are dirt bags! He must have been a Philly fan!...lol
Please sir may I have another....Please sir may I have another....... You guys are hard.

That's funny
What's the official BR cheese to go along with whine?
After reading the original post just have to laugh, not sure what is funnier though. The idea this guy expects that of the thousands of members on a public forum will all have the same opinion of his, that in a hobby known for its buying of gear (bait monkey) that people talk about buying new stuff frequently, or he leaves by throwing a childish rant. Its not helping that in the back of my mind I keep picturing Cartman saying "Screw you guys, I am going home".
This has to be the funniest and best thread yet....we owe it all to stiller.

Say what you will, but how many of you started a topic that ran up to five pages in less than 24 hours, before your 17th post? You can't deny it.....the boy's got game.
He is right. How dare you guys give out your opinions on products to help inform people and decisions making help. How dare you have guys on here like DVT help us with problems, and offer discounts to fix our equipment. How dare you have trustworthy people who will send you money before you ship out your product to sell, even though you never met that person(I had a guy do that here, I was shocked, real genuine people here). I say raise your glass to this guy. DONT LET THE DOOR HIT YA WHERE THE GOOD LORD SPLIT YA!
Stiller is right about one thing... he learned a little. Very little.
I live by Catch & Release, I've had people offer me money for my bass, I'll look right at them and say " Sorry, catch one yourself " and I'll throw it back in after I say it. The only fish I keep/kill are trout, snakehead. I eat trout, I destroy snakehead.

At least go out with a bang. Try to get banned.
good morning everybody. as for drift on a serious note..
my boss yesterday morning called, all he said was oh f and the phone went dead, so rather that open a topic i figure at least someone might read it here.. so anyway i tried several times to get a hold of him and nothing and both texted him and messaged him this morning again and still nothing so at this point I am worried. and that's how my day is going.
i got my 100th post... :woohoo-022:

I am no preacher, but I do practice catch and release just like it is a religion, why? I want this generation and future generations of our children to be able to enjoy the same thing we do, I fail to see the issue with that.
Does that make me an a**hole? to you, well I guess it does, to me, I see it as you being a dum bass.
Do I harvest fish? yes I do, all species included in my state gaming laws.
As for stuff being shoved down your throat while you are just trying to learn a little, look at the replies you just got and let us know what you just learned, I think this too will be too much for you to swallow.
