These comments by OT caught my attention when I first read them and the more I thought about his claim, the more incredulous I became.
Here are the claims he made in another thread:
I post over at the Cattle Forum and thought perhaps he was talking about that site (I've seen him post there) but there's not a political forum there that I've seen. I tried to use the search function but it wasn't working at the time. So I scrolled through "everything else" and didn't see anything there that resembled such a conversation by members.
Maybe it's there and I just didn't see it.
And one has to assume, if the conversation as claimed by OT is accurate, these guys were speaking specifically about Hypo, Tam and others at ranchersnet.
What other site would be frequented by posters who were so familiar with those specific posters? It would most certainly have to be a site that related to the cattle industry.....at least that's what I would think.
In months past I've looked all over the internet for other similar sites, especially related to crop production, because I'm interested in learning more about the subjects that affect how I earn my living today. But beyond this site, and the Cattle Forum, I found nothing that appeared active.
If there is another site related to cattle, ranching, and farming that I'm not aware of, I'd certainly like to have the opportunity to join it.
Even though we're not required to post our identities here, and shouldn't be required to do so, many posters know one another, some actually having met. My identity is certainly known by at least one poster here and I'd have no problem sharing it with others if they wanted to know.
OT's identity is also known by most here and that's what I don't understand about the thread he started and the claims he made. If it's nothing but BS, then I could understand some troll making such claims, but a recognized member?
Or perhaps it was just a joke, but if that's the case, then say so eventually.....no need to dig the hole deeper by making further claims about the site and the proclaimed conversation.
I do wish OT would post a link to the conversation he held. I might want to ask to join and participate at that site.
If it was all BS, I wish he'd just admit it and then move on. I think that'd be better than just leaving the rest of us thinking he outright lied when he really didn't.

Oldtimer said:I got my laugh for the morning while reading another site that was talking about Hypo, Tam, and the other ranchersnet radical right conspiracists...
The talk was about what new conspiracies they would dream up- and during the conversation the group was now dubbed "The Afterbirthers"!!! :lol: :lol: :lol:
Oldtimer said:Well- Larry, Hoppy, Hypo-- I would love to take credit for thinking up the name "Afterbirthers" in the discussion of the ranchersnet nutcases-and the comments about the afterbirther "stank" that goes with it - but I won't/can't since I didn't think of it...
And the site it was being discussed on would not be open to you-- because you have to register under your "real ID/name"- stand behind what you say-- and they vigoursly police and expel stalkers...... :wink:
