    I'm here and open to having a discussion with you or anyone on the matter (assuming this doesn't get deleted).  I'm OK with you calling me names or labeling my actions, however you may not have read my previous posts here explaining the precise reasoning for what I did and its respective timeline. 

    It's clear this site lacks ownership, it's also clear there are those who would have liked to join it for over a year but cannot, and it's also clear there are those here who have trouble with their accounts and can't get it resolved.  Your answer to all that is what exactly?  Ignore those members and potential members like the owner has?  Ignore the mods of this site like the owner has?  And that's somehow good for the site and those people or is it only good for you and that's all that matters?

    I didn't come here to troll or poach members, I came here after 2 years of trying to contact the owner with zero response to try and offer a solution to both new and existing members.  Everyone could see what was happening, I'm not saying anything that isn't already well known and hiding/deleting it doesn't magically make it go away.  I was very respectful in my approach, but was shown zero respect in return from the owner in garnering a response (just as the mods and members here have been shown zero respect in return for their own attempts to reach the owner).  Fine, he doesn't want to answer a potential buyer of the site, but to ignore his mods and members for such an extended period surely indicates both a lack of care and a relative abandonment of the site.  Again, your answer is what?  Create a selfish island for your own goals and ignore everyone else?  That's very nice of you.  I won't deep dive into the other issues members here experienced, but defending or "forgetting" any of that is equally baffling.  Minimally it should be addressed and resolved, not ignored and swept under the rug as you suggest.  Even with the site crashing, the owner hasn't been logged into this site as an Admin since September 20, 2021 or as a moderator since October 7, 2020.  If that doesn't tell you all you need to know, I don't know what will.

    So despite your claims and assumptions, I'm trying to create and offer something positive for everyone to enjoy while also being involved and active to address any issues.  And yes, new sites take time, but we have a great set of members there and equally great content that will continue to grow.  Everyone is welcome, and as you'll see, there is no "banning of mentioning this site" there.  If you guys are happy here, that's all good, I want you to enjoy your experience no matter where it is.  However for those who aren't, or those who need help but can't get it, or those who are new and can't even get on, they have (had) no other option...so I created that option.

    Wishing you all the best no matter where you are, stay safe and shoot straight!

    So you think I have something to gain from this site? HaHa. Best one yet. Your recruitment of who you recruited was my only gain.  I could care less that you started a site but to say you didn’t come on here trolling for members is straight up Bull. You will probably say you don’t find it straight up funny that some of your new members that badmouthed this site, its members and it’s owners can’t keep this site or people off their lips on your site.

    Matt waited almost 2 Years to get the Ball Rolling. He saw the Red Flags of an absent/ uncaring owner who left his 2 remaining Mods in the Dark..

     And who says one cannot be active on 2 NY Sites?!

    You and,I don't  get along.  However there are solid people that,I like here and ,I post always on a regular  basis.  And with 5 Followers- my varied content is read by many. Another is coming soon.

      You so full of crap it’s hilarious. That guy came in this site badmouthing an already  ad situation for his gain. Period. And nobody cares who gets on where but you spew your crap about how bad this site is/was and we’re even recruiting people to go there. You should have been the first one John or Eddie cut. And yes I’m sure you have a pile of people interested in your you tube videos of other hunters and how you are so strong and can Kung fu the world.  Actually I believe you heard the same thing on the other site of how people there could not wait to enjoy your banter. You should start one of those personal daily activities to share. Would be entertaining.

    You forget, John started this site in a very similar situation.  Old site was having issues, he decided to start his own, sound familiar? 

    He went trolling on other hunting sites to get people??  I guess if that’s the case you know what kind of guy your working with over there.

    Occasionally?? Just about any time I come on this site you are here, for someone that despises the place you can not seem to stay away which you should be doing!

    Why don't you mow a lawn or post something useful instead of coming here and stirring the pot.

    Al

    This site and people are still living rent free in the heads of those that left. Here they thought that this site needed them to survive. Doing so much better without even not being able to add more people. And the day John does bring it back around, if he does this site will still be better.

    Who says I'm keeping tabs on this site?  I pop in occasionally and if there's something to comment on or like, I do so. Several others do the same. 

    Also curious why the owner hasn't checked in for well over a yr.  Basically stole money from members and is either to embarrassed or doesn't care to respond.   It's a fair question.  One I'm sure others would like a answer to. 

    And thanks for saying the other site is the best in the state. Appreciate it. 

    Old news.  Whatever happened,happened. Yes we can see how well that site is really doing.  You have what 1 every 2-3 weeks. And I would not put too much faith in your new owner seeing the dirty crap he did just to get the few that left here over there. Stand up kinda guy. The funny part is is that the same ones who lived on this site daily are the only ones living on that site.

    It it abundantly clear there is bad blood between you and some other people. The reason why escapes me, but really does not seem healthy for anyone, or either site. I wish you guys could sign some sore of gentleman's peace treaty and move on, rather than the continued sniping back and forth. I think it only drags everyone  down. 

    I would also suggest anyone here on this site avoid being drawn into back and forth with people who seem to enjoy this type of crap. Spring and Summer are short in this neck of the woods, and the world is scary and depressing enough without all this drama. I hope everyone can take the time to think about the direction this country is headed and prepare for the future, and recognize the petty problems on this social media pales in comparison to the real world issues we face. 

    Personally, the massive gardening and homesteading project me and the wife are engaged in keeps me from posting much, but does not reflect me being inactive here for any other reason. And, in any down time I still enjoy coming here so I'm glad it is still up. I hope because I choose to do so does not put me in the crosshairs of others who have ill will for this site and people who did not jump ship. If it does though, I guess there is nothing I can do or say to change it, so I won't worry about it. 

    In short; I'm thankful for the site owner keeping this place up and going, or who ever fixed things, and I wish everyone from what ever site you call home, peace, safety, and good health. 

    Enjoy the Summer!

    Great words. And guilty as charged but improving. And your answer is 100% Jealousy!!!!

    Some of the members that left showed their True Colors ! 

    I had e-mailed Burmjohn to let him know there was a serious problem . Never got a personal response but the site is accessible now . Don't know what happened .

    Exactly. And you 100% know who the biggest shit stirrers are. And here they think John’s delete button is in my back packet. BaHaHaHa.  I can’t wait until they push that button and get shown that you have one also.

    The site was down for a day or two and many members left for another hunting site a while back.  They seemed to think the other site was better.  I cannot comment on where they went because I do not even know the name of the site.  But I can say this site has been far more pleasant to be on since they all left.

    If you were to go take a look at that site you would see that those that left are still pretty worried about what’s going on here. Living rent free for sure.

    So is bum john back in the picture?  Can new members join? Is he going to finely send out the t-shirts or refund the money's members ordered in good faith? 

    Seems some worry a lot about the past.   Why don’t you just give Shawn the site name??

    I'm not sure what happened, but am glad to see it fixed. The sudden disappearance caught me off guard, and had me bummed not being to say goodbye to those who have continued here. Thank you to who ever fixed it! I hope we stay up and running. 

    In an attempt to try and see if it was just my computer, with nobody to reach out to, I checked out "the other site", and was able to determine it was not just me. What I also discovered was the celebratory responses about this site being down. While not a surprise to me, still really is disappointing. People again really showed their true colors.  

    I just can't imagine where all the hate and animosity comes from. There were many who left I previously held in high regard, and some I still do. I will say, in my opinion, Grampy showed class in his response to the situation. However, the feeding frenzy, gloating, and digs from others about the members here who have remained, again demonstrated the nature of many who (say at least they) left.  

    For those who say they never come to this site, they sure seemed to have their hand on the pulse over here. I suspect a bunch will now be disappointed, and a few will be eating some crow now that it is back!  :  ) 

    Glad it is back up running. 

     

    You got that so right my friend. As you can see that they say they hate me so much yet they can’t keep me off their lips. It’s the same jealousy it always was. Most of it once again comes from Bill that can only post You Tube crap and other peoples hunts. Now that’s they kind of guy one wants to join a hunting site to communicate with. As they showed, Those kind of people are not missed by many.

    Not enough hunters and hunting opportunities for the hunters there are.  What a waste. 

    At the bottom of the page is a story about Louisiana fishing that is good too!

    Exactly. Just as our state people think that having a season on Vermin like the coyote is smart idea. States that have no seasons have a hard time putting a dent in them. Fawns and young turkeys take a beating in this state.

    There is absolutely no competition between sites. It is what it is. Everyone can come and go as they please. I visit both. Some great folks here and there. Have no issues with anyone. Well...............maybe Mayor McCheese. But some things will always remain the same.

    Yeah because so called adults find it necessary to say childish shit. Glad you still fit that mold. Notice how peaceful it is around these parts now that only adults post on here anymore?  Point Proven!!

    There is nothing wrong with a civil debate.  In fact, that is how discussions actually resolve issues.

    It's when debates turn into personal attacks that add no evidence to the side one is arguing that things become unacceptable and corrosive.  There is a distinct lack of that type of thing on this site lately.  I never thought I'd see that happen here.

    Exactly.  And nobody can dispute the fact that when the so called crowd that were the only ones keeping this place afloat left there has not been any of the other useless banter. I would much rather see a slower site with less posts than a site like was here before. And one look will tell you that nobody is busting down the doors to try and join that so called great replacement site.

    Since you used my Name and are looking to argue obviously  I will reply.

       Many Left chiefly because of you...  It is your Attitude.  Worse then Brash and seemingly always Angry at everything.

       I have no time for it . Not many reactions here- but a " Laughing Face"  will get my point across plainly as your endless Angry Quotes when you are Bored will start up again. 

      You should have been Banned Long ago.....

       

     

    One only has to go back and look at your posts about this site to see the truths. And don’t you sound the fool here seeing though that since all the gang of war has left there has not been one single disagreement let alone an argument on this site. So once again shows your cluelessness. Funny how you think a guy that has been on this site for I dont know maybe like 15 years should be banned. Do you have any you-tube hunts of other peoples hunts you would like to share here?   Again!                                                                                 By the way,  how did the self proclaimed famous Turkey hunters year go again this spring?

    Not everyone ran away, some of us had stopped posting much here before the new forum was even created.

     

    Something to consider, and I've said this on the other forum as well:

    Stop all the hen pecking. This silly forum war is like those movies and TV shows with all the old ladies sitting around the hair salon with those things on their head worrying about and gossiping about the shop across the road. It's not making either site look good. The bottom line is if you don't care what's up "over there" then stop going over there (said that "over there" about ripping on "here" too ). It's pretty petty.

     

    Let it go people, just let it go!

     

    Go outside and do something worthy of posting here and maybe people will reply. The hunting posts bottomed out when the other forum started, something else to think about.. << Lightbulb Meme>>

    The trade off is well worth it. Less posts and less bull !!!

    To each his own I guess. I for one don't miss the non stop name calling, trolling, and general nastiness the so called "controversial" ex-members displayed against  anyone they determined to be outside their clique. 

    Talk about spinning the narrative. Let's remember what really happened here. For the past several years, throughout Trump and Covid, the Trump haters and self proclaimed medical experts spewed their utter nonsense and attacked anyone who did not bow to their expertise and infinite knowledge. 

    So how did that all work out for them?  How much of their expert medical advice and opinion related to Covid prove to be correct? How is the country doing now with Orangeman gone? Quite a bit of egg on the face! Well that is if the egg shortage is over. 

    As far as I'm concerned; the "site" became a convenient excuse for a select mouthy few to bail out and drag any supporters with them, before having to face the music for being revealed for being so wrong on so much. It was like someone breaking wind in the supermarket aisle then running to the other aisle.

    But then again, what the hell do I know? Like everything else I was told was not really happening over the past 3 1/2 years, it's probably just another conspiracy theory. 

     

    I would suggest this site is a lot more accepting of differing opinions now than it was prior to the exodus. 

    From the way it looked to me, nobody "ran away" for fear of expressing their opinions. They talked about how bad this site was, that it was going to fail or disappear, and how great things would be once they all met at their new promise land. They chose to leave. Let's not now rewrite history and turn them into victims! 

    Great post. All Facts!!!  This site is much better without the clique. If you notice that site is all the same people, not growing really at all and full of pop ups. No Thanks!
