If you don't know what that means, it probably won't impact you much, except maybe to bring new faces around.

If any community-wide changes come about, we'll be sure to let everybody know.

Also, if you're a Tapatalk user and have any feedback for us, here's the thread for that.



Thanks, Bob]]>

This is where the moderator usually has to step in and set things right. Closing threads, admonishing users, all that sort of stuff. Some sites have a super heavy hand, taking action on the slightest perceived insult or actively herding conversations towards a particular line of thought. And this board certainly has a ton of tools that allow for that sort of thing, too. There's about a dozen ways to skin each particular forum cat.

When my dad and I set this site up a few years back, he and I had a discussion about how much work I thought it would be to keep the place cleaned up. How much time I thought might be sunk into the endeavor, and whether or not he thought just the two of us could handle it, or if he had ideas about other moderators to recruit.

Well, as far as I know, my old man is keeping the peace all by himself. I have been asked for some technical advice here and there, but that's about it. Honestly I go weeks without checking in, because there's not a whole lot of need.

And who should get the credit for that?

Well, you, dear forum member. (Thought I was going to say Dad, didn'tcha?) See, if not for your good behavior there would be a lot more work to do, a lot more rules, and a lot less fun on the part of us admins.

So thanks where it is due, first and foremost, to each and every member who has successfully contributed to our little site. God bless each and every one of you.

And some props go out to dad, too, I guess.

Thanks for letting me ramble,

Anyway, that being said, our new plug in makes it pretty simple to view your registration location before we approve your membership. If you're abroad and think you might get labeled as an unwanted member, please email 'admin@historicshooting.com' as soon as you sign up.

Just to be clear, we intend to discuss historical firearms in English, with an emphasis on activities in/around North America. Users who fit into that very broad box are more than welcome (and please bring your friends). Other users are approved on a case-by-case basis only.

Thanks for understanding!]]>
