Lost Disc - Your opinion

[mrstiggy]

7 days minds are weak!

well dont I sound like a condescending jackass with all my typos.

I never claimed to be an English major, but I do know right from wrong.

These polls are pretty useless about returning discs for lots of reasons. The biggest is most people are going to say they return them on a DG websites poll. If the poll was "would you run into a burning building facing certain death to save a baby would you do it?" 95% of the people would say they would when I guarantee if they were faced with the actual reality of that situation they wouldn't do it in real life. I think the returning discs topic is along those lines regarding inaccurate poll numbers. Lets make a poll that says are you a dirty scumbag? 1. yes 2. no, lets all act surprised when overwhelmingly the poll answer is no.

This topic has been beaten to death, then buried in the pet cemetery and revived and then beat to death again. Let it die please.

I agree Terry, every time all it does is piss me off, I HATE people that do not return numbered discs. I have lost sooo many its nuts. I dont get why even still call. I guess I have morals. Anyway, you are right, I can go a long time with out visiting this topic again.

Terry C you said it all

If you find a lost disc the rules of the game state that you have to fight the rancor for it.

From what I hear, he has quite a collection.

I would either put a bunch of information on them like : name, phone number, email address, pdga number, dgcr number just hoping they would contact you through one of those avenues or I wouldnt even mark them at all. I didnt mark discs for like 10 years till I statred playing tourneys and you had to mark your disc. I dont lose many discs (maybe 2 a year average). Plain and simple truth is if you leave the park without your disc you probly arent going to get it back.

I just sold several discs to a buddy of mine who lives about 50 miles from me and plays different parks then I do so I told him "you probably want to erase my info and put your info on these discs" and he said "no, nobody's going to return any of them anyway". It was kind of funny and at the same time not because its true. Maybe he will lose them and someone will return them to me? lol

 

[mrstiggy]

lol, its kinda funny that my discs have more then just my name and number on them, they also have a description of the kind of person that does not return discs....
Some examples below

I am JOE SCHMOE, I am a fellow DGer. just cause I am not PDGA registered does not mean you should not return my disc to me. If I see you with my disc, I will kill you. Have a nice day.

the only thing worse that not returning a disc is reviving a lost disc thread.

yeah, I like your aproach. That might nudge someone whos on the fence about whether to call or not to actually call.

I can just see a Church group finding your disc in the park. That would be interesting. I just hear the call now " Hello?" Well, hello Reverend----->:doh:

We must play together next job I get in Houston, I saw the pics of the Humble course, and I must say (In the words of Darth Vader) "Impressive, Most Impressive"

Firstly,
The whole thing about "I will kill you" was a bit of a joke, perhaps if you cant take one then DG is not the sport for you good sir.

Then you really shouldn't say something like that if you don't mean it.

I have lost sooo many its nuts.

Then you must be doing something wrong. Here is a thread that might help you.

Lol'ed at Scarpfish's Rancor comment. What is that growing out of his left knee? Rancor should get that checked out, it could be cancerous.

Nothing can stop being new (I hardly ever loose discs) and beer.

You are still a D-bag for not calling, period.

Did you earn that disc no, maybe you should start calling all the numbers of the discs you have nearly stolen, it might make you feel good about yourself.

 

[mrstiggy]

I meant hardly loose them anymore.

I am still going to kill you and you are still guilty of douchbaggery.
