Then post. That was part of the problem...it was stagnating, folks rode off into the sunset. Invite folks you think will fit and contribute. I invite only people I think will get along, and since I no longer go to the big forum, I take 'em where I find 'em. For months it was just me and the Colonel in the chatbox

That's very well said doug, our forum is at a crossroad, I hope it goes the right way. Things have changed so much. Many of us have been friends for quite a few years, I have a deep respect for that.

Not speaking of myself BUT some very fine people I know have been invited and joined here lately. I honestly believe growth of the right sort, good people who respect one another and our Country and service to her and her Traditions, will have you feeling better about your forums before very long. Knowing how calm and knowledgable the core membership seems here, I was honored by being invited. Thank y'all.

And some of us have come here seeking to make new friends to find out tonight that there are those here who do not want new friends. I got told I wasn't liked by a member who never met me, never chatted with me, never PM'd me, but I have been saving for a set of his blue grips.
Forums stagnate without new members. When I came here I walked on eggs cause I came from an argumentative environment and did not want to bring it here. I read alot and saw this as a cool forum, more of a family, so I joined in more and more. I contributed time, money, made vids I hoped amused members and maybe they picked up a tip. I feel, at least in the time I have been here, I have contributed more positive vibes than those who might not like my presence. I'm OK with that as my goal daily is to give more than I take. Gonna take my family to our SC property tomorrow, will skip the vids I had planned to make and just enjoy my kids. Y'all figger it out whenever you're ready. I'm out.
