Hey!
I've been reading from this board for a long time, but just decided to register.
I must admit that I generally don't like forums, as people's rating goes up based on how often they post. I've found that this often results in people who shoot their mouths a lot thinking that they are experts in the field because they have lots of stars or whatever. Dangerous (mis)information gets passed around very easily by people like that.
That being said, I do not see that too much here, so I figured I would join in! I have been interested in smokeless muzzleloading for a while, and have some modest experience.

The number of stars doesn't mean a thing. They could be accumlated by asking questions, posting silly stuff or they could mean that that individual has helped many along the way. I will respond to a spike as quickly and as seriously as I would a Mossy horn. This, like most hobbies provides considerable interest for a while and then we don't hear any more about some members. Welcome to the board and let me assure you that you are not measured here by the antlers.

Welcome, I am a mossy horn who got there by worrying these folks to death asking questions,but have always been treated as an old friend, Rusty

Welcome to the clan of outdoorsman. Hope you won’t take this personal or offensive but when someone mentions “modest experience” I usually find this to be the tip of the iceberg. Look forward to your participation and addition of quality to this Board.

Fire away we all are here for a number of reasons. We welcome all posts some good some bad, you will never get a negative reply from probably 99% there is 1% jokesters me for one. I like to throw one in now and then strickly for LOL's. I believe that 100% are here for the same reason to learn Even the best of the best can learn as you will find out. You will never get negative reply to your questions and if you do the moderators will quickly put them in thier place and if they don't stop the flames they surely will be put out of this VG sight. You will find that constuctive relpies are welcome but there is no place for any negative replies, sarcastic reply's you will find a decent group here. So as I said fire away, looking forward hearing from you. Lou

The members here will jump on a smart alec instantly. If someone makes a reply that is disrespectful or degrading you can bet that replies will come in telling the idiots where the cow eat the cabbage and how unwelcome troublemakers are. Many of my post could be classified as entertainment reading. Advice? We all try to help but sometimes we don't all have the same solutions. Feel free to jump in. I am sure you have experiences we can learn from. I do a little teaching but a lot of learning. Again, welcome. Ben
