The BS that went on at NALL on Friday Night

[SleepyC]

So I am finally home, (well I got home around 1pm today but I had to help the wife get the house back into order and spend time with my kids) I log on to see more awesome posted by the GSN family and I see that some ******* ********* were disrespecting Triple Tree.

No words... ANGER

I can get dumb on occasion at Nall. (Thanks Thomas from MKS, those "stouts" on Thursday ... THEY...HURT) but even when I'm dumb the ONLY thing I hurt is myself and my reputation as an upstanding citizen. Even in a moronic state I would never disrespect Triple Tree. EVER!
The people that did this BS need to be called out and let go.

Bart and I will be discussing plans for next years Nall. We want GSN to be a bigger part, have more coordinated participation and maybe we can continue some of the work I was starting with my old gig.

If anyone has an idea where we can do something as supporters of the greatest place on earth hit me up, I'm all ears.

SO BUMMED to see and hear someone did that nonsense.

After some cleaning, scrubbing and finally a pressure washer a fair amount came out. They will still have to fix the coloration and re-seal which is not cheap. They offered a $10,000 reward to find the culprits this morning. By noon I heard that they had figured out who it was. The $10,000 reward was to come out of the 3D line bathhouse expansion fund.

So there you have it, stupidity followed by swift action and we will all pay the price. I have a feeling stupid things going on next year will be shut down extremely quick.

And they should shut that crap down!! And that will have no effect on the fun vibe. As I said, after the flying is done, people can get a little "loose" if that's your gig, but if your old enough to get loose you're old enough to not be a **** and if you are on the grounds you should know better.

I support a zero tolerance for anything that is destructive to JN.

(Heck I lectured a 65 year old man about his smelly ass gross cigarette he threw on the ground!)

I hope they have to be held accountable for their actions and even a life time ban is not a punishment fitting the deed. There behavior was reckless and should have a penalty fitting the deed.

There is a place for that type of wonton destruction if one so chooses BUT NOT AT NALL. I'm sure certain huckfest's and "bad boy" gatherings have even promoted this "outlaw cowboy" flyer and "smash the guitar" attitude to a degree. In having what some might call fun. I neither find it entertaining or disruptive if it is done in the right place and time. It is a matter of very poor judgement on part of the participants doing it at a place that is identified with values and wholesome family fun. And even the cigarette butts as sleepy mentioned should find their right place when disposing. Same for the water bottles that get thrown away and just so happen to miss the appropriate place. A trash can. Now I smoke and I drink water. But I don't leave the remnants on the ground even at my local club for some one else to pick up or left to rot. And if some one does litter a well maintained RC environment and it catches your attention I would personally be polite and ask the individual to correct their way. Or have a mud-hole stomped in their ass. Now my good online RC buddy @stangflyer might be a little more strict and use a different approach such as bio degradable environmental friendly disposing also known as "feeding the animals". But I personally have always liked "walk softly and carry a big stick" approach. Being serious though.....I hope next year has no consequence for the actions of some really irresponsible individuals who put their morbid sense of fun before the many many genuine and supporting RC enthusiasts.

I am unaware of what went on but waking up to hear this really saddens me.

Problem with the walking silently and carrying a big stick is, some people don't deserve it. I am a firm believer, if ya got some whoop ass coming, you're gonna "KNOW" your whoop ass.....is coming. And I don't mind letting people know how badly they behaved. Disrespecting an entire venue is bad enough. But wow..."WOW", we really showed the rest of the world what America stands for didn't we? That..."THAT", is intolerable in my book.

Yep. Unfortunately noticed a few incidents that disturbed me this year but also noticed that someone approached these individuals for corrective action immediately so that did restore my faith a little. Two things that did bother me a little were at our campsite, as @ChickenBalls @emtp275 and @Paul Puszynski will attest to, is an adjacent camp (a well know hobby vendor) consistently drove there bikes/4wheelers and walked through our camp site. In the camping world your camp site is your temporary residence and privacy should be respected. The other was at the pilots briefing on Monday, was the disrespect shown to the safety officer over the Minimum 15 foot low pass rule. One guy questioned it over and over. Same guy earlier rather arrogantly was informing me on the thunderstorms that arrive on occasion at Triple Tree, insinuating I was some sort of unworthy "Nall Virgin". I informed him I had been coming to Nall since 2009 and was well versed in the storm issue.
Bottom line, follow the Nall saying, "Fun, Fellowship, and Hospitality and we all have a great time and memorable experience!

Fact is.... People think they have to show their ass to get a rise out of someone. I have no sympathy/empathy for those who screw this all up for us who want to take pride in that wonderful venue that Uncle Pat has created for us to enjoy.

I was at the first 3 Nall's at that location! The place kept growing by leaps and bounds! Such a MF'ing shame that a couple of doucher's are going to ruin this for all of us.
