mistreatment
It even got physical when he pushed me twice while we were setting up and there were no witnesses around to see it.He acts like hes has something against me.There was another club menber I also had problems with.That's why he can't keep members.Another member who I just saw today also quit and he also was mistreated.

LBT,
It sounds like you are steering this thread into the 'oh poor me' category.
I'm just a member here, and have no say in what's posted, but I find your posts way out of the context of this forum.
You have not responded to queries about having to wear safety vests while watching UP trains. That leads me to believe you are interested only in SPAMMING.
Can you give us detailed information on either the UPRR thread or this one without being 'the victim'?

I will only say that especially during public shows egos can easily get bruised and sometimes this will fester until something else triggers a response.
Best approach eat crow apologize and try to work it out.
Of coarse there is always the smear the new guy thing that some people never get over

People get mistreated "bullied" in almost every club. Someone almost always get a superiority complex. If you don't like it confront the problem or leave or if you like the abuse stick with it.
If you get into a club find one with rules and a set program/theme. Also have an understanding that its just as much your club as everyone elses. That way if the bulling/name calling crap starts maybe you will have the membership of the club behind you.
Clubs are meant to be fun. So if it isn't its time to go. Kinda like taking pictures as long as you enjoy it keep going and when you had enough put the camera in a box and do something else.
