Nope, MADD didn't have to ask his father. He was there.
I could not disagree more with the OP.
1. The mere fact this post remains on the site contradicts his claim of moderation of dissenting opinions.
2. Rules regarding non-hammock related subjects is indeed detailed in the TOS
3. Many differing opinions appear in the hammock related threads. Just because it stays focused doesn't make it a wiki. Discussion, dissent and differing opinions are plentiful, just stay on topic. ... oh look a squirrel
I own, administer, and moderate a forum of my own. I have also been a long-time moderator on half a dozen other forums, all with a subject matter related to firearms and tactical training. (That's what I do for a living.)
So,....I know and understand how it works.
And with that said, HF is my favorite place on the web!
I like the way this place is run. I like the civility of the members. It's breath of fresh air in comparison to the bickering, ego, and machismo on gun forums.
Sorry but the OP is somewhat correct.
I agree that ALL non hammock related threads should be moved to the off-topic area. BUT.
There is currently a thread talking about how a members dog died, that has not been moved.
As bad as it is to lose a dog it has no more to do with hammocks than does the OP's thread about alcohol stoves!
That said I think the mods do a good job of keeping things friendly and on topic, but by jumping on this guy for speaking an opinion while we have an off topic thread getting lots of posts does sit wrong with me.
So perhaps you could use the "report post" button and let us know there's an off-topic thread that needs attention. Might be better to take action to fix it, rather than just post about it in a different thread. Members often help us keep things organized and on topic.
I'm getting a clear message we like it here despite some transgressions a lot of us have made. Since it's"family friendly", be careful of the door. ;-)
