New to the site

Hi everyone, i am new here. I was previously on Hunting BC, but was banned. I didn't even get an explanation as to why.

Oh well. I stumbled upon this site, so I thought I'd try it out.

That's why I avoid controversial subjects, and keep my comments to "Nice buck!" or "Good luck on your hunt!"


























God bless the intraweb.

I hear you.

I have a sarcastic sense of humour and I guess its hard to convey it through print. I'm sure some members took my poost personally on HBC and thats why I got banned.

I guess it doesn't help if the mods have no sense of humour and are really sensitive.

No kidding. The strange thing is they don't even explain why you were banned. You just log on one day and your banned. I guess it makes people feel worthy and powerful.

My cup of tea is of the 270wsm nature.

I took a quick look at the posts you made at HBC and unless there were some deleted threads and/or posts I saw nothing of consequence.

Could be a mistake was made and your IP got caught up accidentally when their mods were trying to ban someone else. (It happens) You could send Marc - the owner of HBC - a PM from this forum asking what happened. His user name here is: wild wild west

Marc unbanned me. I communicated with through pm's on this site. He his really down to earth, and reasonable.

After I was banned someone changed my signature line to read "I am too dumb to be on the internet". How immature. It was probably the simpleton that banned me. I hope that he/she will have the decency to pm me and let me know why he/she banned me. I highly doubt it will happen. He/she will probably just hide behind their computer like a coward

i had my signature changed on HBC before, everyone denied it! just one of many rants to Marc when i was a member that added to the others that got me banned for being a trouble maker

Clearly someone changed my wordings, Marc said it was impossible.

I never had a personal issue with Marc, actually aside from all the BS on the site he's a nice guy. I just found that he would stand by certain members/mods deliberate comments/attacks on me after id complain...you know years later i still read other members new and old raising the same concerns i experienced....And still those actions given a blind eye.
