YES! Talking about politics and religion on forums is just wrong. I know that because I just had a conversation with the Prime Minister and God and they told me so....

Which will ultimately cut down on the number of users, and all of the insight that those users bring. So mods, you're doing a great job, I personally like the fact that I can access this site from any network I'm on.

Thanks dawg! Your check is in the mail!

I frequent another survival forum that really has no moderators. A certain few come out there who you can tell have no interest in wilderness survival skills but like to start threads usually whining about Obama ect. I made the mistake of posting that I stay out of political discussions and dont get ruffled feathers over things going on thats out of my hands and got bashed and beat up for keeping my head in the sand and it escalated into name calling and got ugly. I learned something though. Dont get into heated arguments with your fingertips with someone 3000 miles away. He wouldnt have said those things to my face and since I couldnt slap him upside his head he seemed to enjoy it. Well the owner of the site finally saw what was going on and banned him but not me. Politics and religion are 2 subjects your gonna have a hard time changing someones veiws on so why bother? I agree with the rules and the ex poster should realize how BS can be manifested with some subjects.

There are other forums, huh?

**Stairman** · 06-18-2009, 11:04 PM

Yes Ken there are many. I personally am a woodsman and avid hunter of animals not humans. My guns can kill people but I dont buy em for that purpose. I do have lots of ammo though. That just goes with my homefront supplies for just in case I need em and Walmarts boarded up. Not all survivors are interested in debris huts and bowdrills. Its a common interest with alot of categories.

Huh?? who?? where??? As usual I'm confused.

Stairman - Not to offend you but that's what you get when you go off at night and leave this forum at home not knowing what's happened to you. Oh, sure, those other forums might look more attractive but who's still here waiting on you when you get home? We don't call you names and poke fingers at you. That's 'cause we're dependable. Are they? Apparently not. (sniff) I can't believe you'd do that to us. And after we've given you the best hours of our life!
