wow... remove posts that don't suit you... how original. I thought my last post was even mild... You let guys post quotes like the one above and you don't let anyone respond??? The post kova, was made out of the professional conduct of "disclosure", so that there is no information being withheld by us from those who frequent the site. Kova, you have been a Guest on this site a number of times and each of your posts have been left up. Though I have disagreed with the contents of your posts, or the manner in which you have conducted yourself within, there are still valid points that you make and thus they all remain. Grich, though I highly disagree with his tact and rather narrow perception of the issues we have presented, still has offered valid points of concern and contention and though I dislike the rhetoric he chooses to engage in, his posts remain. As have most every single one on the site to date, whether or not I or others agree with them. The frustration in my attempts to communicate professionally with some of you is so utterly beyond measure it is incredible. I wonder if people actually read the posts or just react to them without thought or understanding. To date I have removed 3 POSTS, of which 2 where utter inane banter best suited to the Grade 4 school ground. There was no insight, no information, no opinion to be gleaned from the posts. There were insulting to EVERYONE on this forum, and ANYONE interested in Bigfoot, or the real study of the species. Criticism is welcome but insults, mass profanity or racial slurs do no one any good. We are NOT removing posts that don't suit US, but removing posts that do not promote discussion and debate be it positive or negative. I hope with this post I have now made myself perfectly clear for those REACTING to the notice rather than READING the notice and can avoid unlearned pithy retorts like this in the future. Thank you.

Okay, so a few posts have been deleted. Let me assure all that the posts that were removed from the site were mindless banter, insulting without any aspect of intelligence, and outright a waste of time for everybody to read. We're all better off without it. I for one would like to decide for myself what is "mindless banter", if you are saying that "mindless banter" is name calling or just insulting someones opinion then yes chuck it, but if it is someones opinion on a subject, then I would like to decide for myself if it is valid or not.

I saw the posts Kenneth was referring to mine being the 3rd which responded to them. The post in question basically called everyone on this forum 'retards'. It offered nothing in the way of discussion nor logic. Moderators on any forum I've ever been a member of will delete posts without notifying members if they include inappropriate content. IMO, Kenneth was acting outside the normal realm of common moderator courtesy by notifying us of the deleted posts and their style of content.

word malyss. Shoot, I have admined a bunch of forums & if I catch someone mindless flaming peeps I ban their azz in a NY minute. No remorse. If they come back I ban their IP. If they continue to come back, I ban thier class C netblock then their whole ISP if need be.
nuff said about that.
Back on topic: Todd I heard you on C to C and you did make it clear about the Bugs thing. Unfortunately it was so quick, likely lots of peeps missed it.
I may have some information on a domicile for you Todd if interested. I emailed you awhile back but never heard back. However I do understand that you have been busy following the first coast show, so I completely understand. If interested e or PM me. I am going to check it out this coming wednesday to verify whether or not mr foot is still in residence, hopefully. This domicile has been active for 4 years now, if still active.
Anyhoo, hi to everyone here, and keep your eye on the prize Todd

I'm in agreement with Sasguatchwitness in upsate NY. I think that these creatures do exist, but find that supposed authorities as yourself and others, are more into advertising and marketing your own interests than conscientiously gaining proof of the creature.
I was disappointed with the last Coast to Coast program and made great efforts to hear the live program. Honestly, I did not hear one useful piece of information from you and concurred with the host's less than ecstatic opinion. After the earlier Coast to Coast talk with Art Bell, I left a very favorable comment. The Oregon Bigfoot lady had many more interesting points and instead added credibility to those who believe that such creature exists. Hopefully your next talk on Coast to Coast will regain my confidence.

I didn't time Todd's airtime, but I would guess he had no more than 20 minutes. Not much time to make any point especially when all ian want to talk about is vocalizations. The Oregan lady (I liked her too) I think had almost 80 minutes to make her points, if I remember right. . .

Hi Kenneth, where I agree that a large percentage of hunters only travel a short distance to harvest game(god knows I will any chance I can get) both of the times related here took place in situations where those of us involved were in the bush for a few days as was our norm at the time, usually travelling by horseback(I'd hike as I hate horses) or by 4x4 either way, in those days we would tavel a few days in. The cutl ine I had this experience on had a clear view of the Rockies. My friends was in an area on the northwestern edge of the Alberta B.C. border in an area just below treeline.
