This debate happens each year.
The rules are there, but some people just believe that the rules don't apply to them or that rules are for suckers.
The "first come first serve" does not apply to ghost camps.
It is first come, and following the rules, first serve.
Breaking rules in your own self interest isn't clever. It's self-centered.
Lashing out at those who call it what it is just highlights the fact that you know you're breaking the rules and have no justification.
I guess things like this will always be around when you live in a "me-first" world.

And you do the  speed limit, use your turn signal on everytime?  RULES are RULES right?  It is first come first served, its called getting off your butt. Instead of driving up the night before the opener and whining because someone  beat you to your spot.

Typical "hunter attitude" is what keeps us apart rather than bringing us together.  For what? A set of damned antlers?  There are those who get stuff done and those that will just complain.  Me me me seems to be the other way around.....
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

It doesn't matter what you think...

Two days with four pages. It’s off to a pretty good start. It’s sad to say but I see more commits on a thread about a $10 tent. Then I do on a thread about a boys first elk or any successfull/unsuccessful hunting thread.  Those are the suppose threads why we all come to this site, right? Who cares about a $10 tent and ribbon. You really gonna have that ruin your season. Move on. Find another spot. Enjoy the real reason why your out in the woods chasing yeti’s around. I mean what’s the next thread gonna be.  Someone took your parking spot at the trail head.

You have a good point RT, but so does he.

Bending rules and breaking rules are different things, to different people, speeding can literally kill someone, but we all have done it.  Reserving a spot is pretty harmless, yet still not allowed.
It all comes down to where the line is drawn in the eyes and minds of the individual, and occasionally, or ultimately, a LEO.

WSP just issued a BOLO for any strange looking pink or orange tape surrounding anything that may or may not be a tent!  Warning, may or may not be occupied! DO NOT Approach call for immediate backup! 

They will put all murders, rapes, collisions on hold until these pink tape tents are deemed safe for public entry....
I kill elk and eat elk, when I'm not, I'm thinking about killing elk and eating elk.

This is hilarious its painfully obvious that the people defending this do it. I do it. But there is no way in hell I would do it like that. I don't know or care if there is a law against it, but roping an area off calling it mine is like a 12 year old licking his favorite glass so no one else can use it.

I’m approaching this from a neutral position at the moment.   Where are these rules?   That’s the thing, whose rules?
