Varmint Guy,
Exactly right ! On all accounts.
There can be found a bit of info from the " Clique" the flinty old "Know it all Basturds" ....but don't try to contribute if you ain't one of the Nazi mods' favotites.
Especially the nazi Sophia.
Good place for those that can keep their opinions in their gullet .
I reckon it is alot like kicking through a garbage dump ....you will probably find something.
I don't know much about firearms .....but what little I do know did not come from RFC.
What the hell good is a gun forum that does NOT SUPPORT the 2ND AMENDMENT??????

I learned a hell of lot over there when I first started down the .22lr road and still check back if I need to learn about a new pistol etc... For the most part it's like other forums, heavy on the know it alls and posters that just repost info from posters with high post counts as they think it makes them sound knowledgeable.
Ride well, shoot straight, and speak the truth.

It's funny, I don't have any issues on RFC, in fact, I visit it a lot. I learn a lot there, too. I do a lot more reading than posting, but I post fairly regularly.
VG brings a lot of grief on himself wherever he goes, GGVG, 204 Ruger dot com, etc. If he just kept his yap shut and read and learned from other's experiences, it would be really helpful to him, but that's not how he works. His loss.

RFC does NOT believe in the 1st or 2 Amendments.
I don't expect to get whacked for repeating what the favs have posted.......
So, I don't have much respect for the mods or their attitudes.
I especially find it humurous that you ,ratty, follow VG around from forum to forum.....makes you kinda special.

You got it wrong there, cisco. He'd already been ejected from GGVG by the time I got there (though the stories about him were amusing), and I was already a moderator on .204rugerdotcom when he waltzed in trying to push people around. He got banned from there pretty fast. I've been around here a long time, I don't know when he came along here, but I've never followed the putz around, ever. He just seems to show up and be stupid everywhere he goes. .

I’ve been a member for 8-10 years. Don’t go there that often, but have gotten good help when I needed it. Like all forums, there’s a few members that I just ignore.

Not nearly as many to ignore on RFC as in this kiddie romper room. Not many rude insult hurling clods either.

It has been a long time since I registered with RFC, but make sure you verified your email at registration. If you did not receive a confirmation email, try to re-register, if you did confirm your email, try to use the change password or forgot your forum name link.
RFC has some good information but just like all gun forums, you have the self proclaimed experts on all topics and are compelled to let us all know.

If you prefer the keyboard commandos and buffoons here then don't visit RFC, moderator(s) at RFC do a much better job ridding the site of riff-raff.

RFC is a much more civilized forum than the 'Fire, no chit slinging azzclowns like VarmintGuy, no repetitive posting attention w hores, no guys feigning alcoholism nor being a deacon. Guys on RFC are much more grown up, don't act like a bunch of pimple face adolescents. No keyboard commandos hiding behind their computer screens hurling insults back and forth for multiple pages. Hmmm, like you just did here?
There are 2 rules to success:
1. Never tell everything that you know.

If you prefer the keyboard commandos and buffoons here then don't visit RFC, moderator(s) at RFC do a much better job ridding the site of riff-raff. I'm not that sensitive and I'm certainly not an emotional thinker. Much of what you call riff-raff that the mods. ran off over on RFC were very knowledgeable and great persons. There a few of the old crowd left over there, but few is the key word. Most of the really great knowledgeable ones are gone now. The problem these forum have, and RFC is big one with the problem, is if someone gets their feelings hurt because a member chose to speak clearly, then the feeler bunch do to that member what they accuse the clear speaker of doing. Then Free Speech is tossed out the window in favor of Democracy.........majority wins. Anyone has the right to say whatever they want, when ever they want. Others have the right to rebuttal or simply move on. Unfortunately political correctness is the deal of the day and Freedom is kicked to the curb. As I was taught, plain talk is the easiest to understand. Many can dish it out, but few can take it. The underlining issue on RFC is the advertisers. Their money controls those forums. Don't believe it? Link to a manufacture who has a great product but is in competition with on of RFC's paying advertisers. That is just one for instance. Obviously we disagree on the new structure of RFC and that is fine by me. You are allowed your opinion as will as me. I good with that.

What is really hilarious is, if he would have posted that on RFC, not only would he possibly be banned for a period, the secret police would have deleted his entire post and no one would have known he even said it. There are those who say they are in favor of socialism until they have to live in it.

It's pretty simple really. If you don't like RFC, don't go there, and obviously, this is THE PLACE for you. When you sign up at RFC, you agree to abide by their rules (just like when you join any other private club or organization). Some here seem to have the deluded notion that if it's on the internet, YOU should be allowed to do and say whatever you want on someone else's site. Maybe you didn't spanked enough, or too much, when you were growing up? I go to RFC a lot and find it an easy place to be. I visit here a lot less, but show up once in a while.
I have no interest in reading pages of pissing contest between a few twisted knicker individuals. I like facts, problem solving solutions, gun lore/history and good natured banter without a lot of know-it-all bluster. I find a lot more of that over at RFC than here. Everybody's different, eh?

(Satire) I love it when a person self rationalizes being condescending, snotty, mean or just an arse wipe to another person because of they feel superior. Give a person power and watch how they behave - if they do that, you won’t learn much from them reguardless how much they know, because they really don’t care about others at all. This is probably where KARMA emerged - when those people you step on regularly have a chance to help you, most of them just walk on by,
I know a couple three guys like that at RFC... it’s still a good forum beside them, but who ever runs the site and puts Admin’s in power that doesn’t get this least of human traits... it is what it is.

gewehrfreund,
You are one of the lawyers for RFC.
One signs up and agrees to the rules.
Alas, the rules are interpreted by the moderators.....who always , always favor thier favorites and the clique.
I have been in contact by a number of RFC members that have a lot to offer, but have been subjected to the ever changing rules as interpreted by NAZI mods such as Sophia.
RFC does not support the 1st or 2nd Amendments.
If you are not in the clique or not a lawyer for RFC.....youn can't post without getting whacked .

Their rules must have changed from when I signed up in 2000 or was a guest a year or 2 before that.

Not new rule changes.

Mods act like small fish in a smaller pond.
