This site has been successful for a very long time, so Mr. Bin is not to be second guessed on his approach. And we surely would not invite censorship. It is free as anywhere I have experienced. The troll issue is a sign of our times. Sadly, it really takes away from exchange of ideas in a civil way.

I just wonder how it will play out if it continues or escalates.

Really? I guess we shouldn’t second guess anyone for making a dime, even if it promotes communism. For [bleep] sake, even Bezos, Zuckerberg and Dorsey censor what they don’t like, they don’t care about the money. Not this [bleep] place.

Sometimes you need a set of balls to run a business in a way that reflects your beliefs, sometimes you’re too big a pussy and worried about a nickel to do so.

They make good fill at the bottom of the hole if they got the balls to come around and talk as such face-to-face personally

Rick Bin let's everyone pretty much do what they want.

Three things will piss Mr. Bin off, not keeping your word, Lying to him, and pornography.

I can't say as though I disagree with any one of those things.


And a call out thread with his name in the title.

IDGAF what Rick Bin does. How he runs his site, or who he let's on here.
I disagree with some decisions, but I disagree with so much anymore
it's like breathing.

If Rick reads this and kicks me off. Good to have known Ya!
If I get to where I dislike the site. Good to have known Ya!


His game, his rules.
I don't have to play.

I wonder if new members are attracted and stay after witnessing threads deteriorate from troll interference? My guess is no. And if I guess is correct...trolls win short term. But site declines in the end.

Thoughts?


New members try to wade into the pool slowly, only to get dragged into deep water from the jump.

They either swim, drown, or get eaten by sharks within the first hour.

Some think they can swim. Most realize they can’t. Those that hide a speargun in their bag have a fighting chance.

Keep this on the down low, but it's the liberal trolls that keep this place alive. Without them the forum wouldn't last six months.

And pics of Barry are always good for a few more posts on thread cussing the sender?

Don't be giving away secrets.
If the Lib Trolls left, our hunting/shooting/flag living site would die.

It ain't about trolls but about the 'traffic' a website / forum / blog / etc., generates. The bigger a website / forum / blog / etc., gets the more time and expense it requires to maintain it. Traffic (views) is what draws income producing advertisers. The more views the more advertisers want and will pay tor ad space.

A troll is merely an effective arguer that proves their point. They become a troll when the less effective arguer bans them and censors their speech

I actually think there's enough variation in thought here to allow discussion without the need for trolls. Back off on the attack mentality and interact rationally with each other and learn from our differences.

Rick Bin runs a successful business. Who am I to question his methods. I respect the fact that he lets things freewheel, even the trolls.

This place is an anomaly as far as latitude goes these days. As I've stated before, I don't think you can put a price on what we're allowed to do here. Where else can you learn about chunks of asbestos in Frosted Flakes, and ultra cool .22 centerfire conversions from DD and Muffin. My new guy two cents.

So your measure of how to run an ethical web site is Bezos, Zuckerberg and Dorsey?

Was that your best rationalization for why you can not compete linguistically?
