Freedom isn’t free!
Speedy recovery, thanks for maintaining a great forum, boss.
Oh no!I'm going back into the ER today or tomorrow. Some unpleasant complications.
I just joined. Need hip surgery so I'm homebound messing with the guns. I wish you well. My sympathy entirely.Folks,
Unfortunately, I suffered a serious injury earlier this month, with a crushed left foot. All five metatarsal bones were broken along with all the cuneiform bones, one of which is in 3 pieces now.* I am seeing Doctor multiple times this week, with probable surgery on 6/30/2023. This will be a complex 4-hour surgery, with pins, plates, and bone grafts.
In addition, I am having a MOHS skin cancer surgery today 6/26/2023. If necessary, there will be follow-up plastic surgery in a hospital tomorrow 6/27/2023.
Because of these medical issues, I am requesting that members be patient with requests and communications. I will be unavailable for the next two days, and possibly all 6/30/23 and 7/1/23.
REQUEST for Members
In order to eliminate potential problems this week, I urgently request that members be careful about what they post, and how they post.
1. Please use a proper thread title that explains the subject matter. Don't use a title like "Hey Guys", or "WTF is this". Instead use a proper explanatory title such as "Q Re Vortex FFP Scope Mounting".
2. Do NOT try to sell items or post WTB thread in ANY area other than the Classifieds.
3. Be RESPECTFUL to other members. Don't post insults, or attack others.
4. Avoid political threads -- look guys, while I'm out of action, please just leave the political stuff alone. It goes off track really fast.
5. Do NOT post Links to questionable websites!!!!! This is vital. If you have ANY question about a third party vendor site, assume it is a scam. NEVER EVER post a link here. NOTE: You can check questionable sites with https://stopgunscams.com .
6. Do NOT attack vendors. If you have an issue with ANY party that supports the site, send a PM to Forum Boss. Don't start a thread. I will respond to you personally when I'm out of surgery.
7. Overall, please exercise good judgment. LOOK at what you've typed before you post. Don't post materials that will anger, insult, or cause conflict. And to repeat, NEVER EVER post a link to a questionable website.

* This is known as a Lisfranc injury, about as bad as it gets. Surgeon says 8 of 10 in terms of severity.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^absolutely +1I wish you a better day today than yesterday and continued healing, still sending prayers your way.
Sorry to hear this Boss. Prayers for a speedy recovery.I'm going back into the ER today or tomorrow. Some unpleasant complications.
You live alone but, you are not alone. I'm sure you have several hundred members praying for you.Guys, unfortunately there have been some significant problems post surgery. Cast removed yesterday to test for potentially life threatening DVT.
I desperately need to get to a Urologist, because of issue with incorrectly inserted catheter. Trauma and potential UTI.
I can only move via wheelchair, cannot stand securely or wash, and have not been able to get in home health assistance yet.
Live alone so this is a challenge.
