Roark Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 A post was locked Dec 26th pending proof. About 3 weeks now; Wannagrip- any proof in the hamper, or does rule 5 rule? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldGuy Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 No further posts at all from that member since the thread was locked. Maybe of no significance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Piche Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 Well, they PM'd me and asked why it was locked early on. The only post the person made (was it their only?) was the post of their feat. I told them about the rule. Plus, they used the GB as a personal messenger.

Roark Posted January 11, 2003 Author Share Posted January 11, 2003 Here is my opinion, just an opinion from one person: If no proof is forthcoming after a reasonable time (one month?) then the original post should be deleted. Why have references to such matters; references which offer only unsubstantiated claims? What good comes of leaving locked posts to be readable? Just asking.

mobsterone Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 What about the claim for 285 on the RT which Tom put up in regards to Josh Bigger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Piche Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 What about the claim for 285 on the RT which Tom put up in regards to Josh Bigger? The only reason I didn't lock that one was as I said in a post: Using lifts to one up someone in that thread and get the final word so it can be locked is bunk. Anyone does that again, and they will be put on a vacation from the GripBoard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom of Iowa2 Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 Sorry about that Mobster,no disrespect intended...I felt his first time/first touch closure of the number 3 was being 'taken away'.........for his use of the HAMMER gripper?IF IT(the training lift) happened?IT doesn't matter as I guess- from the top of the food chain -I have gathered that ONLY competition lifts matter.We'll see who shows up in Burlington. ?(and i know it's too far way for you unless we beef up the grize money-which hopefully will happen). Won't happen again. We are taking a few weeks off.No more reports on Josh Biggers training.....maybe some pics from time to time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Mac Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 (edited) Tom, Pics would be welcome. Joe, FWIW, I agree on the time limit thing. Maybe if pics become available after a certain time period has elapsed then the thread can be recovered - I don't know if that would be possible though.

Tom of Iowa2 Posted January 11, 2003 Share Posted January 11, 2003 I have gathered from many e-mails and PM's that others would like to hear about his training. Obviously it can't all be photographed and it is so diversified(and spontneous)it's hard to catch. The pics?It's a technology thing at this time.And up to Josh...... I may get a digital camera and figure out a way to put up an occasional pic within my post...'Old guy' does this from time to time.Come to think of it 'Old Dude' recently did the same thing. I printed out that thread(Josh has 'no use for the Internet' ) and I guess as a grip/strength newbie he was suprised....SO... other than some pics that have already been sent....?? Everything is cool with us..take a break and get back to training grip in a few weeks..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
