Re: Why I come here

cause all of the other forums let people say what they want and scare people off...this is the only site where everyone is welcome...on othjer forums if a "newbie" had a different opinion than another person who has been there for a while...then everyone else jumps all over that new guy and runs him off...seen it happen way to many times..but not here...you can argue or debate for 2 days..sometimes longer...and in the end all is good and its nothing personal...This is literally like a second family to some people...i know for me it feels like it...its somewhere that we can come and tell our problems and know there are complete strangers that actually do care....its somewhere that we can come and just talk about nothing....get advice about things...ask for prayers....pray for others...and on some occasions actually get to meet some of these great people...

that is why i come here grin.gif

It very much, in fact, is that. We have all different types of people in here. That keeps it interesting and very much like the "family" you stated. I hate we have lost the members that we have but in the end the people in here keep this place a necessity.

Laugh all you want, this place is like family to me. Ive been on here many, many years. Ive seen marriages, births, and even deaths. Personally this place means a lot to me and (it goes without saying) so do the people in here. Its more then just enertainment. Much, much more.

Ive had the pleasure of meeting a handful of people in this forum. They are just as Genuine as they are on the forum. Ive been given gifts, ive received prayers, the list could go on and on. If you are an active member in here you cant, not, bet something from this community. Im not even talking monitary value. Ive learned a load about firearms from AJ, Handgunner, and even Blueelk). I started fletching my own arrows because of members such as Hutch, Kevin, and a few others. Ive gotten recipes off of people such as Jason (Gator), ive hunted with good guys like Ryan and RobK. Ive even had a great time at Dales shooting bows with other great guys Such as Todd, Kyle, JB, etc. Ive been thanked and shown true Friendship from other great members such as Chris and Al.

This forum represents a place for great people to come together. When you pile this many people with true hearts together you cant help but come out with great results. This truly is a great figure of what the hunting world could and should be.

Ive been here since the beginning and quite honestly, death or the rapture will be the only thing worthy of my leaving this place.

Re: Why I come here

I agree with Jeramie, I come here cause it is like a 2nd family. If you don't understand that then you haven't been here long enough. This place is like a sanctuary to come and ask opinions, get ideas, share with friends, and flat out have some fun. Yeah I like to debate but I respect the other people's opinion whether I am right or wrong. Except for Gator, He's just a punk. LOL J/K Buddy.........

Re: Why I come here

I came here because:

I was invited smile.gif and decided to hang around and get to know some pretty good people. One thing I have noticed on this forum is the youth that is involved here.(this is a good thing)Other forums are about mine is better and faster and who you are not what you are, those places get a little stuffy at times. I find myself drifting away from those and look for genuine real everyday people who enjoy the same things I do. The real joy is trying to help someone else who you may or may not know. There are other reasons too but those I will leave for another day.

Re: Why I come here

When I first started here, with the first user name I've had, on the forums I was actually trying to learn what I could do to increase my success in the hunting woods....I had previously seen 3 deer in 10 years and had only taken one before in my entire life(Gods Honest Truth)!!!

I've since become much more successful - I quit counting but its over 30 harvests so far, even including a couple of very nice deer and my first buck with a bow, and thats a direct result of the increased communication and my willingness to try different methods.

In the process along the way I've made some friends here. Some of them have become close friends and the distance of many miles has really made no difference...I'd trust them with my family and children.

I've spent almost as much time communicating through Private Messages as I have in the open forum.

Some things have changed over the years so my main reason for being here:

To Communicate and Continue to learn from Friends who share a passion for the outdoors.
