    I reckon maintain your point of difference, which when it started was a forum for hunting and shooting enthusiasts. The more off topic sections you have the more you are a clone of the other forum(s), and the more likely the politics and bullshit will creep in. Isn't avoiding that exactly why you started this place?

    A joke section would likely become a place for bad taste, and that would create dissension. There is always a minority who haven't a clue what self moderation is, let them do it around behind a shed, not invite them to do it here in public.

    Maybe I have not looked hard enough in the personal menu, but is it possible to open a thread in its entirity? Rather than read through pages consecutively.

    Best to keep away from that clone & plus we already have an off topic section that you post the odd joke in
    Shoot it, root it & then BBQ it !!!

    Its NZ Hunting and Shooting right? we have a fishing section and a off topic section and maybe a grubby section.
    What else could we possibly want? Certainly not a politics section. That would be the end of this great place.

    See if you can encourage people to visit and post a thread or two in Resource Library. I dont think anyone even has a look in there anymore. Lets see if we see if we can pump some life into it..............or just can it???????.

    What about a mentoring section ? Or something along those lines ? . Where say a young or new bee hunter can be invited along on a hunt . It would be easy to have as a reference if the new bees where all in one place , so if you have a spare seat on a car, boat ,chopper you can scroll through the potentials and choose one . How does that sound ?

    Munsey, that's a brilliant idea! That's what it's all about eh, newbies aren't always eligible for "take a kid hunting"!
