RE: Lots of forum jumping going on !
We are only as good as our members, and our members are all adults and SD rightly insists on treating them as such, self regulation works on this forum, which encourages free and lateral thinking, and it expends our knowledge base which in turn improves our chances of survival.
I've a daft idea, let start a special members only sub section, and to join you have to have been banned from at least three other forums !!! , Whooosh everyone piles in
Oh god I can tell bloody Scythe is giving it serious consideration

I'm never going to criticise a person for their belief. I'm a Christian, and nobody gives me slack for that. We all respect our different opinions and views, however.....we also recognise that we're all here to learn to prep for situations.
We don't knock people for being a new member, being new to prepping, or being a bit nuts and extreme.
We prep. If someone is prepping for civil unrest, a hard winter, an oil or gas shutdown, alien attack, nuclear war, or anything like that. At the end of the day, we're all doing one thing. We're accounting for the things we have issues with, and working together so that we can plan, and help each other cope.
We don't charge money for this (much thanks to SD for footing the bill for us). We don't expect people to become members to read our knowledge. We don't demand anything, except honesty and fun (the latter of which BP still doesn't enjoy). And most of all, we work and communicate freely, as a group of like minded people.....oh wait, isn't that what a forum is meant to be?!?!?
One of the things I love about this forum, aside from the wealth of understanding, lack of regulation, abundance of freedom, and everything else that makes us awesome.....I love how nobody on this forum considers themselves to be SACRED. Everyone is able to joke and make fun of everyone else. Barney and NR love going at it. NR and everyone from Bristol, face to face. BP verses anyone living.....in his country haha. But even SD, much thanks to him again, is the butt of jokes, and rip it out of us as well. We act like a family, and although not all of us have met, we still work together, and share our lives.
This forum kicks ass!!!!!!
Do i really come over as that bad Scythe??
Some people that prefer to be alone arent anti-social they just have no time for drama, stupidity and false people.

I've already got my plan of action ready.....Keep being myself on other forums and post about the fun stuff I do. That'll get me banned for sure!!!

I love cats, so couldn't do that. Was out until 4:20am this morning searching for one of them. We found her, and it was great. But now....damn I'm tired!!!
Couldn't skin a cat. Much more comfortable skinning a dog (just because they seem to mistake me for a chew toy, and give me a big bite). However, the misses is an animal person, so skinning anything is likely to get me into trouble haha.

I've thought of that already. By the time things get that bad, she'll realise that when I'm off 'using the bathroom' that what I was actually doing was checking traps and doing that butchering stuff she hates so much!!!
It'll get to the point she realises it's natural to eat meat, and will be okay with me doing it. But that won't be any time in the first few months.
The 'FAUX FUR' clothing I 'find' will be interesting to explain haha.

luckily my OH is okay with that, not only is she a CARNIVORE same as me, she has lived in the country for most of her life and has also been in Farming where death and slaughter is part of everyday life.
