Just wondering. Myself, it is probably because John Barsness is active- interactive and is quite a treat . I am political but don't care for the gutter political talk but wish there was a place to converse without it getting out of control . Anyways as Canadians we need to be active in hunting and shooting activities and willing to pass this interest along. This might be one way of doing it. What do you think? Take care- God Bless

I was a member a few months before John. I don't know why I joined, but I remember having a few exchanges on another board with Ken Howell. That might have been the reason.

It was the only place with low enough standards to accept me.

I feel fortunate that John responds to reasonable questions and as a guy raised reading JOC, this is pretty special. Anyways, Partsman , nothing wrong with friends in low places....my favorite people

There is always more to learn about everything, and here on the 24HCF are folks from all over the place willing to post stories, pictures, results of testing and experiments to share with and enrich the masses. A good number of people are willing to provide help and assistance via posts,PMs,emails and phone calls.
I’ve learned a lot and been very entertained.
Thanks to “all y’all “ who make the ‘fire a good place to be

Because sometimes I LMAO, and other times shake my head in wonder.

If I wasn’t paid, I’m not sure if I would be here very often, if not at all...

In 2003 or 2004, I called a reference — JimR, a member here — about a hunt. We talked for quite a while and in the course of things he mentioned the ‘Fire. I came, I saw, I joined in 2004.

My son found the site and told me about it; glad he did.
Not a real member - just an ordinary guy who appreciates being able to hang around and say something once in awhile.

I come here for the riveting political commentary, medical advice, and investing advice.
It's all priceless.

I think I tripped over it during an online search for hunting info. Took a look and got hooked. The place is crawling with attitude, gotta love it.

The only reason I visit the 24CF anymore is to here what Formidilosus has to say. Learn a ton from him, otherwise wouldn’t visit at all. Use to be a great site, however now it’s too much attitude and rhetoric for my taste.

The guy had lots of good info.
It is better to be judged by 12 than to be carried by 6.

Thinking back, I think it was the 270/ RL 26 thread that got me checking in here. There are some good conversations here, I try to skim by the bad ones. I am a hunter first, Wild Sheep are at the top of my list and I am always looking for supporting info.
