Last Sunday a buddy of mine asked me how I found out about the 24 hour campfire. I told him I was surfing the web for 257 Roberts forums. And this website kept popping up. So I took a good look at the site and joined. By the way he calls this website "awesome!"
Which got me thinking.....How did you find out about this website?

the only real difference between a good tracker and a bad tracker, is observation. all the same data is present for both. The rest, is understanding what you're seeing.

Shaman suggested I might find survivors of D&DH.com here, after it's death of a thousand (per night) spam. This was where I pointed everyone in one of my last posts on that forlorn place. Funny, but most of them looked around and didn't stick. The main reason I will guess is that this is more of a haven for rifle loonies. There were a lot more bow hunters on D&DH.

I was a regular poster over on a Kentucky Hunting forum. Got banned because I had the audacity to post that the Black Lives Matter movement was flawed because it ignored the Black on Black murders, and I thought it was just a result of the DNA of Black people to go around killing one another. Another poster on that site then told me that the moderators were all big time Democrats, which I still can't understand why they would want to be associated with a hunting forum. He told me to try this place, as the Campfire wasn't anywhere as politically correct as most places were. He did warn me about a couple of regulars here who he said were the biggest a-holes on the internet. He was right about that, otherwise this is about best forum I've found.

I was searching for information on the Remington 700 Titanium, and I located some here. I was confused, though, that the synonym for “Remington” as used on this forum was “Sucks.” I had to PM a member to learn that it was not intended as a term of derision.

Well like Al Gore invented the internet, I created this site, but being the modest guy I am I let Rick bin take all the credit. But really like Shaman. when those others folded I followed others to this site that Rick created for us, and it is a good site. Thanks Rick

Unexpectedly encountered a well-known gun writer living way out here. 'Twas obvious that he needed quite a bit of help and care, and did my best. He opined that my shooting/hunting interest would be well-served at the Campfire. That was Dr. Ken Howell.

I found it back when it ran 1X per month news print format style.....ink and paper
We would read it by candle light or kerosene lanterns.
Then we had to send in questions and replies via pen and paper. After you penned your question or responce you mailed it to Rick for .25 cents
After that it would be off to the outhouse for recycling/compost

Northern_Dave and I were having a face to face discussion about something and I think I mentioned something I had read on AT.
He then pointed me to this forum and his Birth of a Deer Camp thread.

I was at a midget whore house just outside of Havre, Montana, and the proprietor referred me to this sight while he steamed cleaned the next girl up.
I'd rather die in a BAD gunfight than a GOOD nursing home.

My girlfriend and I had sex on the beach ... Those watered-down drinks are terrible.

A couple of internet searches on the 9.3x62 brought me here. Found lots of information on things that interested me so decided to hang for a while.

Was on another site associated with Petersen's Hunting back in the day, and found it interesting but rather boring due to lack of depth.
Read about this one in an article by JB. Switched and never went back.

Sold a scope to a member here on on a separate state specific forum, he told me to check it out. Signed up immediately and have been enjoying it since.

AllOutdoors.com went toes-up in 1999, which lead me to shooters.com which folded tent in 2001. The shooters.com alum migrated to 24hourcampfire.com and I came with them.

I was directed to this site googling info for Savage 99's and was hooked by Bristoe's storytelling. Been lurking for years.

I was looking for a particular hard to find book. A google search took me to an old post on the classifieds. I joined and emailed the guy...he still had it, and I bought it.
This is the best classifieds on the internet bar none....buying or selling.

Leonten, Got here in Jan of 01. Was on another web site (Shooters) that was quickly going down the "pooper". Great site, in spite of all the "deplorables" here! memtb

I have been a member of multiple outdoor forums since the inception of such. A friend and I were having a couple of beers in a bar. He too is an outdoor forum user. We were discussing the anonymous bullies and a-holes that frequent forums and how they behave while protected by their anonymity. He told me that if you want to see a bunch of those that I should go to this forum. I did. This was a decade and a half ago. He was right. Luckily, those individuals, as prolific as they are here, are the exception rather than the rule.

I was swapping load data on AI cartridges and the new RUM cartridges with Larry, aka Big Stick, on the Shooters forum. He left and came here so I followed to continue our conversations.
It's still the only forum I frequent. Just have to overlook the ones who think they are still in High School.

I heard about it on another forum. Came here as a member and never looked back. A really great bunch of folks here. Same Tho I wanted to tell you I created it and that dang Sysop enacted a hostile takeover and installed that puppet Rick Bin He's such a yes man to Sysop
I'm pretty certain when we sing our anthem and mention the land of the free, the original intent didn't mean cell phones, food stamps and birth control.

I had come across the site, just a couple times previously while 'researching' gear. Then in 2010, I was on the hunt for a Bushnell Elite 2.5-16x scope at a certain price point and the Free Classifieds sucked me in for good. Only thing that's seemed weird are the few guys that have just absolutely freaked out and go to extreme name calling over rather trivial comments on chit like floods&waterfowl or Weaver Top-Mount rings. LOL - Whatever dudes.
