Thanks radicalxl, it good to hear from you.
I still get on a read some threads. Didn't hunt at all this year and very little last year. As someone said in another post about us old gray beards slacking off because of age, he is correct. Kinda stupid to post anything about whats going on out there when your sitting on the couch. No one will listen or they will want to argue with you anyway. At least that's the way it used to be. I do post to non hunting threads like this one. Congrats Griz.

Thanks radicalxl, it good to hear from you.
what goes around, comes around. (I sure do hope so)!!
Good to hear from you radical. Seems to be less arguing and more discussion and respectful disagreement anymore but thats from the handful of guys that are left. Hope you get out a little more next year.

Congrats Griz! I had to check too after reading this, I became a member in December 2006. Put a lot of time and heart into this place over the years and it sure isn't the same today. If you guys ever figure it out let me know, so I know what I was doing wrong LOL!!

LOL.....you didn't do anything wrong.,,..you Mods just got burned out do to the lack of ownership support. Hopefully you,seeker,Blackbeard and my hunting bud hortontotor will return next season and be regular posters.....I for one....miss you four guys input/posting!!! Radicalxl is back on.....but not as much as I'd like to see him!!
Enjoy your hunt- the long sit......... the cold.......the rain and snow......the peace and quiet, it may just be your last hunt........... you never know.
As stonegod said, you did nothing wrong. I believe all you mods held this thing together. But something went wrong behind the scenes that a regular member wouldn't know. For all of you to quit at once makes me think that. It really would be nice for all of you to come back on a regular basis. Stonegod said it best, we miss your four guys input/posts. There's just a hand full of guys on here on a regular basis. As you know I'm also posting on another site and enjoy it, but I cut my teeth here and plan to keep contributing. Good to hear from you on BHO.

I think stonegod and griz hit the nail on the head, you guys didn't do anything wrong. As you mention at some point early in the season that there was a lack of owner participation and I believe there still is very little posting from the owners although I think it is chris has been trying to get some footage for an TV episode. That would have been cool if he would have shared some of that experience. But just seems as thought the owners save for a bit at the beginning of the season have more or less disappeared at this point. Except they do post all the news from the ODNR site here.
Glad to have you back and as it seems you are in better spirits.

Well I agree I don't think any mods did anything wrong
but at same time, it sure seems to me, that the same folks that complain about no action on the site are many times guilty of logging on/in, looking about and not saying anything or adding many posts, or new post
just look at how many visiters a day the site gets? as to how many replys get added! or post get started!
And how many members a day log in?
And yet still so few post, action here?
Seems like people , maybe are complaining, about things there guilty of too!
after all, adding to the site in any way, is adding to the site, and more folks do, maybe more folks will !
the owner here is just one person( or I believe that its only one person) so even if he added more, its still a small amount
many old timers still admit they look in from time to time, but how many are adding to the site? And not just looking like all the non members do??
Reminds me of the hunters in PA that complain there are no deer, but keep shooting deer where they hunt??
HUMM, maybe its just, and my observation!
But best way to get more folks here to keep the site going is for members to add more to it, and not just the owner?
more talk, less looking from all!

I agree mrbb. I'm as guilty as anyone, looking in and not posting. I'm trying to change that. The owner/s should be the one's that are concerned over low numbers. Also, the numbers they say are looking in and not members are bull crap. They shoudl not post total members unless they also post active members. I've checked, and so many guys have not been on this site in years and still are listed as members. Some honesty would be a good moral booster. Both you and nomad_archer have been some of the most consistant members posting lately. We all shoudl follow the lead.
