What Has Happened to the Smith and Wesson Forum?

"There are topics that are forbidden and language that is forbidden".
Nope. I have made on-topic replies to open and ongoing threads, using completely acceptable language, and have had multiple posts of mine deleted without any notification, warnings, or infractions. The admins here censor based on viewpoints.

"Many forums are changing that"
I have yet to see a single other national (not regional) firearm discussion forum that charges a monthly fee specifically to list firearms in their classifieds. Go ahead and point one out if you know of one.
I searched your records. You have had 7 posts removed. Of the 7, 3 were for rule violations. The other 4 were in threads that were either started by a troll, started about a current GB ad, or it one that appeared to the posting from a vengeful ex-wife. When a thread is deleted, all posts go with it.

Outside of the tread deletions, non of your post deletions were based on view points, they were for rule violations, suggesting you either failed to read the rules or chose to ignore them.

The bottom line is if you are unhappy here, why come here?

Hate to tell you guys, but "the blue" forum isn't very well respected in the online community. I am a member of many gun forums and this one has a reputation. From the time I've spent here, its well earned.

Cry harder. Stomp your feet and wave your fists in the air. Protest heavily.
I have plenty of grounds for comparison. It is what it is.

There is a reason the "other" S&W forum is growing.

You're obviously unhappy here.
It's my pleasure to improve your quality of life.

We had 22K people viewing the forum earlier today. The "other" forum was started by someone booted off this board who worked here and they don't publish those stats.

The copycat forum also has 1/6 of the threads we have and under 1/3rd the members.

God speed. ;)

Honestly, I come here to learn and to share what I've learned. Some of the comments on my threads hijack them or are just plain rude, but most are made by agreeable folks who I've come to respect. Consider the fact that comments that are waaay out of line are typically made by unhappy people who likely are more upset about something other than what they've read here. Don't give them a pass, but there are ways to answer somewhere reminding them that gentlemanly conduct should be the norm.

From what I have seen on many others I have no issue with them seeing us that way. I do not go to many forums besides this one any more. To many of them seem to make the rules up as they go. Here they are pretty consistent, and I am not a 'grab the popcorn' and watch the scrum kinda guy.

Neither am I. Just want to enjoy myself here and can't be bothered with any confrontational idiots. Go play in traffic then.
