At least consider setting up a Politics and Law forum. The 'Fire is being overwhelmed by such stuff.
I know it would mean extra work to monitor and move posts from here to there (as they occur in future, no sense going back in time) but it would return this forum to a much more enjoyable place. How about volunteering?

I think there should be resurrect a thread day. Everyone should go back at least 10 pages or so and find a thread they think should get more light and bump it. See if it floats.

Not reading or participating in threads that you have no interest in is pretty simple. And not responding to someone you consider a “troll” is pretty simple too.
Every day on this side of the ground is a win.

Right.
But then again, it would not matter what topic it is someone always starts chit. There's a big difference in trainwreck threads by valid members, and valid threads purposely derailed by paid trolls. But clicks are money $$ in the internet forum business. So nothing is done. We have religious trolls too. Those that are only here to deny God, and argue He doesn't exist. Perhaps we need to have a Politics & Religion forum? I doubt it'd get used though. It would be greatly ignored. Who are the valid members? Only the ultra conservative, wear-it-on-your-sleeve conservatives? You just can't cope with people that disagree with you. Better they go away than you have to listen to them. Keep cryin'... I'm laughin' Ummm... Maybe those that actually hunt/shoot/fish/trap/reload/ and are vested in interests as such, as well as the freedoms and liberties that come with that lifestyle? I have no problem with people that I don't agree with. None. I even enjoy a good heated debate. But trolls that promote communism, gun control, and taking our freedoms away, are nothing but... well, Trolls. Which are you? The only reason trolls are here are because members like yourself keep engaging them and giving them the airtime they desire.

I do all of those things. So I guess I'm good to go then.  I have no problem with people that I don't agree with. None.

So tell us all, specifically with quotes, where I, for example, promoted communism, gun control and taking away freedoms. Go on, show me. The troll is you. You can't handle anyone that disagrees with you, and you especially hate people laughing at you as you pound the keyboards. But laughing is what I come here for and you provide more than your fair share of it. Thanks! Laugh on. As your comrades slip a ziploc over your head.. after confiscating your guns.

I've engaged a few in the spirit of dishing out some of their own medicine. But I have stopped doing that even. Make no mistake. The trolls are here because they are allowed to be.

Can you confine trolls to only one area? What keeps them from making their own rules, you know, being Democrats and all???

There are dozens of other forums for outdoor stuff on here. I thought this WAS the campfire forum. Exactly. We might could use another one just for Rocket Launches . Jus sayin. Grins
