I think the resolution was to get on the cast boolits forums and contact Stilly for pins there.
Or get the pins from that other reloading company that sells them as well

You guys should go blow your wad all over the former member on some other forum. This drooling is gross.

I care. I would rather make up my own mind - can't do that with no input .
I am not stupid enough to believe I know everything . I have been reloading since I came back from "Nam . I have no one making me read posts and I just skip ones I don't like / believe .
There has to be a line somewhere . One of the bad things is it is hard to get someones address - so I now p-mail and keep them .life member - CRPA and NRA

Talk about disgusting, hateful and X rated.
With this type of response, you will be talking to him sooner than any of us.Comment

I belong to another online forum that actually screens the daylights out of anyone wishing to participate. Really! I'm sure there are a few inadequate personalities that cheated their way in there, but then there is some fair but very, very firm moderation to keep things where they should be. You actually have to pay to participate, as well. I think all those factors work to keep the riff-raff out, or at least silent.
No nonsense, no rude behavior, no disrespectful behavior, no immature chest-beating. Nothing but (mostly) thoughtful discourse and good times.
All the good stuff, and none of the childish, inane static you find on too many public forums. It is strictly moderated, and the members support that, because if that forum goes down, it's back into the pits with the dogs. In other words, back to public forums with people like SantaCruz and Stilly.
Public forums require some muscular moderation. I know a lot of folks won't like the fact that I lumped Stilly in with SantaCruz, but he earned all those previous bans. He was thin-skinned and prone to rudeness, and he took himself way, way, too seriously. It was like watching a hack stand-up comic. Mildly amusing the first time, but he gets tiresome pretty quickly.
The biggest mistake I saw in all of this was the delay in dealing with SantaCruz. He should have been crap canned long before he was. You let people like that pollute your forum, and before long all you are left with are more fools, more losers, more inadequate personalities. The good members leave, the bad ones are emboldened."Self defense is not a fashion show. A defensive handgun is not a little black dress, or a purse."
Remember, the overwhelming majority of anti-gun thinkers are not stupid enough to be "afraid of guns." They are afraid of stupid/immature/crazy psycho people with guns.
And as always, being friendly, courteous, and respectful is the easiest way to bend people to your will.Comment

The place I disagree here is with the notion that Stilly took himself too seriously. Having met Stilly in person, Having been loaned die sets and tools on occasion from Stilly and Having had hours worth of conversation with Stilly on my driveway, the only thing I can really say is that 99% of what comes out of his mouth (or fingers as it were) is dry humor. Meant to illicit a bemused smile, or to break the weak. Of course Ive seen him get personal with people like he did with SantaCruz.....but then SantaCruz did tell him to eat a D!@k.... I dont know, maybe its because of my background that I dont get as easily offended, maybe its because I weigh the quality of Stilly's advice above his occasional antics.
We have all been there before, heck when I was new here Im pretty sure I got into it with Tonyjr (not to skylight you man you know your awesome by my book) who I have since come to enjoy greatly, and also has provided some incredibly good information in the past.
You are right about the pay to play forums, if at least in the validity and quality of information. I believe that is where we come to the crux of this conversation. Stilly was, at least to me a quality source of information, everything he ever told me has be solid while some others have given me.....fundamentally and factually incorrect information... Some of the information I see come across these boards is not only wrong but in some cases dangerous, and then at other times boarding on the frantically, and irrationally over cautious.
Its fine, I accept that this is within the perview of the owner, but I think I will head on over to the other forum today and I will spend the majority of my time over there from here on out.Semper Fi and long live the Hornady red monster!

Ah, Stilly, we know him well, and some of us miss him, You did have to filter out some of the noise, but his advice was spot on.....For the most part..I agree big time on the delay with SantaCruz.
*Yes, SantaCruz should have been gone, before it got out of hand*

*Tonyjr - Really? How could you get into it with him, always seems like one of the nicer guys on the forum.*
