Way too many different personalities and beliefs for all of us to just get along. Until we are all equal, I doubt it will happen. Sorry for the bad attitude but it's just how I feel. It's a nice thought though, Happy New Year.

I can't decide what is causing it ?   The site used to be a lot different in its youth.  I just cruise around now, staying out of the pots being stirred. Not as fun but safe.  Mike

If we were all to get along or think alike this place would be boring as hell!  We need difference of opinions to make us think.  Also, getting pised off every now and then is good for the soul and keeps up from becoming complacent.   :chuckle:

It is not a matter of getting along.

It is a matter of remaining civil when discussing our differences in opinions.  Hate mongering and name calling does nothing to make your argument more valid.  In fact, it makes you seem less valid in my eyes.  That goes for politics or discussing which gun to buy, or how big a deer is... plain and simple.

I agree 100%.

People should be allowed a differing opinion without getting belittled, unless they say something realllllly, realllllly stupid and offensive.    You know, something totally boneheaded, like:    "A 257 Roberts is an acceptable deer cartridge."

In that case, all bets are off!

If we all tought the same we'd all be hunting the same spot at the same time in the same way and that would really suck!  I'm glad we have differing opinions as others often broaden my perspective.  People just need to remember to keep it civil and not take everything so personal!

Folks,

The only behavior we can truly control is our own.

Why do so many people care so much what others say or think?

This board has a few important functions.

1) to share our hunting stories; Ok, I have not posted many stories this year of hunts. Here is my story. This year Blacktail Bucks 23, Jay 0. I have NEVER had my butt so clearly handed to me as this year. I missed the biggest buck of my life at 40 yards. No excuses, I missed. So embarrassing. So there you go.

2) It is good practice to experiment different ways to communicate our values.This board is a great place to do that. The Moderators deserve a latte or beer to say the least. THANK YOU.  We are outnumbered by an amazing number of Mentally Casterated stupid people from King County. I personally do not believe they are all powerful. I believe they are militant in politics. If 500 of my hunting brothers stormed the Mayor's office in protest of any number of his stupid ideas they would be paralyzed in fear. If 5000 Occupy Seattle protesters did the same thing it would not matter. The biggest obstacle is our inability to get along and organize and a lack of our own media outlets.  :twocents:
