Offended

[NHcpa]

I have evidently reached my limit on "Likes" and I am not permitted to like this insult. Let it be said that I find this insult sufficiently offensive, and I am once again feeling included!

And I'll just bet that your cat does not wear a life jacket... and would probably make mincemeat out of you before you got him/her on the bow of a boat.

Cheers...well said!

I appreciate the Hearth.com moderators and others alike who posted on this thread, and who articulated a philosophy and a 'culture' of what is expected for 'discussion decorum' on this site. (And thank you Bob B for starting this thread - no Mea culpa necessary, brother !)

Speaking for myself, I stumbled onto this forum knowing nothing less than nothing about pellet stoves - looking for some stove advice and some operational direction - and ended up finding those things, plus allot more in the unique community and 'esprit-de-corps' that this fine forum espouses to.

'Esprit-de-corps' isn't something that a website administrator can mandate in a mission statement or demand in a user agreement Terms of Service. A forum group has it, or they don't. Moderators can certainly plant the seed for it, but it's the collective membership that must cultivate and actualize it.

So, thanks to this forum for having, and being that. Especially, as fossil put it, to the 'oldbies' who remember and appreciate what it was like to be a 'newbie' in the pellet stove world.

Regards, and happy burning, (and forum reading) everybody !

Exactly and AMEN. And the help we received here with our pellet stove, and the guidance and information we received here, made us confident enough to move into a wood stove for our intended retirement location. Moreover, the knowledge here and the input helped us decide on the Blaze King, which has been a huge blessing for us. So yes, there is much, much goodness here.

My cat ate a wood stove once -' while it was lit! The dog had to use a fire extinguisher on him.

LOL! Ok, whom must I pay to get my "Likes" bucket refilled?

Send me a thousand dollars in small, unmarked, non-sequential bills and wait until tomorrow morning!

... aaaand I still can't "like" anything but I find this remark sufficiently offensive. OFFENDED. MY COMPLIMENTS!
