The Tip Posted March 9 Share Posted March 9 I was shocked by this reelection result. Not only that he won, but by the margin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And such a shame that your control issues with your FB group denies the opportunities for groups of us to post trash cleanup days. Never mind - we'll manage without you.

Sluggo Posted March 10 Share Posted March 10 No shame involved if you do your own thing like The Tip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Tip Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 sigh. I really didn't want to address this but, to protect what little reputation I have, I am compelled to do so. I am not sure why I am having to endure TAF's unrelenting wrath. It started with his suggestion for a cleanup of a particular spot in the SATN. I didn't immediately jump on it and make it happen. He has been very angry at me since. I'm not sure why he didn't organize this event himnself if it was so important to him. But I'm amazed that he accuses me of "doing nothing for the community." The irony being that I would be willing to bet that there are less than five people in town that have given as many hours to trail building, maintenance, organizing clean ups, putting on community building events, and participating in other's events too, (ARR etc), as I have. For example, I've used Strava to track my walking miles at trail work for eight years now. I average over a hundred miles a year. That includes just walking to do hours long projects at single spots. It would be fun if Strava tracked all time hours at each activity too. He wants The SATN Facebook page to be an open forum. Well, that is not why that page was created. It is only for information dissemintation. There are at least two other local mtbing Facebook pages that are designed for open discussions. So his ire about that perplexes me too. I have nothing against the man. This all just seems so strange to me. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATXZJ Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Not trying to stoke any coals here but The Tip shared almost 70 miles of trail maps with me, and i wasn't on any social media. Most of which I'd never even heard of. Pretty cool 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are various efforts underway to stop the Southie trails from becoming a national trash embarrassment, and your refusal to allow these efforts to be posted, or to allow your forum to be used for coordination of trash pickup, deserves your being called out in public. As I have said, we’ll manage without you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
