 thank you Terry!

Yep, well said Brother.

Never had a problem here on TradGang and I've been about since the early days. Gee... I think I still have a pic of a 500# bomb with "TradGang" written on it....lol.

Keep at it mate.


Cheers from aussie,

Thats why i am a Tradgang member and basically only surf this site.  

If i wanted to read about other things, i would go to another site.  

Thanks to Terry, the Mods and supporters and members.

I will not cave to the newbies  that claim to be 'new and improve' , nor the instant expert *keyboard cowboys* that waltz in here and disregard long time hunters and their experience.  Lecturing lifetime successful hunters, and even mocking some of the pioneers of this lifestyle.  I wont have it.  End of story , end of discussion.
   
I'm sure this trend of "I'm here, I've arrived, I'm new to all this but you all are wrong anyway" mentality will only escalate as more and more folks feel the need to somehow showcase some type of superiority that they don't have elsewhere here on the rest of us.  Especially since our 'traditional culture' is eroding.

Some of you may have noticed, others not....but those folks that want to jump in here and jump on folks are being removed rather quickly.

I also want to thank those of you hitting the mod alerts on these types of folks.  The sooner we see this type of activity, the sooner we can take care of it.

Sorry for the rant....but just wanted those that are 'one of us' to know where I stand with no reservations.

Terry, Two threads come to mind recently that no longer exist. I can only imagine the multiple threads that need cullin every day which would make Moderating more than a full time job.

Thank you for all you guys do.

sweet picture above.  

Maybe we are Elitists?  some people just don't get it and they don't belong.  I like it that way.  I would welcome anyone but the minute they step out of line, they are asked politely to get back in, when they don't, or give attitude, well its time to see the door.

Everyone doesn't have to agree but they sure as heck better respect each other!  Sometimes I wish we could post up a pulled thread for the members to "stone" and "Heckel"!

Thanks again Terry and the rest of the mods

Thanks Terry!

Terry , you and the other founding members have done this site right. Although , I do not post as much as some, I do stop by everyday to see what's up. Y'all's clear vision , and sound leadership has made this , dare I say, the best bow forum going. I have been a member on other sites, only to find out that that membership seemed to enjoy "Flaming" others more than the content and site camaraderie.
So, Well Done and let's all keep this place a great place to be and to meet new friends.

I appreciate everything about this site.  It has taught me how to be a competent recurve shooter, but it has also shown me that there are still civilized places on the web.  When I see other sites, I just end up thinking, "It ain't Tradgang."  Thank you!

[cacciatore]

Terry,you keep TG at the very top.  

[Sean B]

This site is pretty special!  Keep at it Terry!

[Trumpkin the Dwarf]

Thanks Terry. If I have been or ever do get uppity I hope someone here sets me straight. This is a great place and I for one appreciate the work you put in.

[Cookus]

That's right Terry... The door should hit'em where the dog 'shoulda bitten 'em! Keep up the awesome job mods!

Terry, I am a relative newbie to this site and have only observed the utmost respect from it's members. This must be attributed in part to the dedication of the moderators and the decency and sincerity of the members. I really appreciate the attitude that traditional archers and bowhunters have on this site.
