I know many realize that I am a member of both. I hope I haven't been percieved as a spy or troll or any of that crap! I just want to learn everything I can, wherever I can! I don't think anyone can find a post of mine that has been disrespectful to either site. I agree with some and don't agre with some but I read every post with an open mind! I WILL NOT AND DO NOT SPY FOR EITHER SITE!
I feel I've got a feel for a lot of the regulars's personalities in the last year. I think most of you guys have earned your spot here and have gained a lot of respect for most of you. I will say that a few new guys lately have come in with "guns a blazin" but think they will settle in, once they see opinions dont have to always be taken as personal insults.
On the other hand, I feel the same way about some of the guys on the other site! I have nothing but respect for people that are willing to help me!
At this point, I just need to learn, and I'm trying to take all I can in and filter through what I like and don't!
I have Turner birds and I have Joe Urban birds, and I plan on flying both families for the next few years. I will not cross the families and I will not cross anything else in! Do hope to make room for a few Rubies later this year also, depending on how the summer goes!
I will probably be exhiled for my association from both sites but I would rather go down that way than anyone thinking I'm a spy or troll anything!
I am a student of the hobby, and that is all! Hope you guys will except my stand! So be it!

I am like you Val. I try to remain neutral and contribute where I can on both sites. Some view me with skepticism on this site because of my committment to my family of rollers; some view me with skepticism "over there" because of my committment to performance and competition flying. But they will just have to "get over it", because I remain absolutely committed to both my family of birds and to competition flying. Neither am I aware of any baiting or spying that goes on in either direction, but then, as I said, I am not exactly on the "inner circles" of either! LOL!
YITS,
Cliff

Val,Cliff,
There are a heck of alot of guys and gals using both sites myself included.Personally I can't get enough "pigeon talk".I often feel a little on the outside at both sites
at times.The only time I offer advice is with general topics like housing,health or preds.I have no interest in breeding for looks and no experience in comp. YET. If that makes me an outsider so be it.----------

I too am a member of both sites. In fact I stumbled upon the other site before my friend Cliff Ball turned me on to this site. I visit both sites daily still. I was not sent here as a spy and if I had been asked to spy on anyone I would decline and make mental note of whoever asked it of me. I try to remain respectfull on both sites.
I have posted info. to those asking when I felt qualified to do so. And I have chimed in when I thought someone was getting a raw deal. That just being part of my nature. Mostly I just read the new posts and go back through the volumes of past posts to glean out any pearls of wisdom left there for years.
I am not new to rollers by any means but I am new to organized competetion and that is what I am working towards. When I get a kit entered in a competetion it will be my very first. Everyone had zero comp. experience until they got started. I fully expect to get my butt waxed but I will have fun getting it waxed at least. But being here allows me the chance to soak up some info. that will shorten my travel to placing in a comp. someday. I sincerely appreciate all who share those helpful tips and procedures.
Thanks for taking time to read this note if you got to this end.
Truly so,
Jim Williams

I am just a member to this site. I have all I need from this place. Knowing that you membership gets revoked over there just because totally discourage me from even peaking in. When you have the best why you want to try the rest???
