I would like very much to put 'Fishmaster' back into his sleeper cell (but with one eye open). I've been an observer of this board for a long time and have enjoyed the info provided here, but I could no longer keep silent as I've seen topics that have eroded the boards initial purpose. I think people have chose to ignored the title of the thread under which we are now posting 'General Fly Fishing'.
Let me emphasize 'Fly Fishing'. I have no ulterior motives or agenda here other then to try to keep the board somewhat pure instead of a mishmash of topics. There are places to do that, like 'Facebook' maybe.
There is plenty of information about fly fishing on this forum. Of more concern should be (IMHO) the argumentative nature of many of the posters, regardless of the topic. I have never seen a board eroded by off topic conversation, but I have personally quit many boards that were full of "know it alls" and "my opinion is fact". What would benefit this board in my opinion, would be a more open sharing of information, instead of holding knowledge so close to the vest. Just my $.02.
Unfortunately, since you have been lurking all this time and then you decide to step in with both guns firing completely unprovoked, you have 0 credibility. Why is this topic running in the General Fly Fishing section? Well that indeed begs a question. The same question can be asked of why you are still registered to post here... Where ARE the moderators?? Who are the moderators?? I've been here for almost 10 years and the "self moderating" format used to work. Bill Kienes kind disposition and welcoming spirit made it easy to be nice. We wanted to keep it civil as a thank you to our host. those days are about 6 years gone now. Moderation is necessary for a clean, civil forum. Just look at Dan Blantons board. He runs a tight ship and it works.
So. Who's going to give the yes or no on the campfire/lounge idea? If Yes, make it happen, If No, delete this thread.
by the way, theres a really simple way to avoid topics you don't like. Don't click on it. It's called "mouse restraint" Kind of like a dog returns to his vomit.
I vote yes for an off topic forum, but since it is not my board, I will not be upset if the suggestion is not granted.
I have one last song I would like to share... Everybody likes a fish on! Enjoy..
