I'm real sorry to hear this. This is the ONLY forum that I've found that I like. Everyone is nice and civil here. There is none of the squabbling that I've experienced on other sites. Guess I'm done with talk forums. Know what you believe in. Fight for your beliefs. Never compromise away your rights. | |||

Ok that being the future,,how about anyone who is/was/.will go/going to another site list it....if that is ok with Bill and Linda. I was on some other sites and narrowed it down to this on,,some I left and some,, was thrown off others,"Honesty is A best policy" ,,unless you challange one of the favorite sons or one of the chosen "Experts", | |||

Unfortunately, that's been my experience as well...there aren't all that many other halfway decent 'traditionally oriented sites' sites...and most of them have become "social center sites" for several who seem to feel a need to display some lordship over others choices or techniques, etc. Others are smaller and very clique-ish. This is just a hobby to me...its not my life...and I liked the more quiet / neutral tone of the Campfire...check in, make a post now and then, etc. Flintlock Rifles & Smoothbores Hunt Like The Settlers | |||

Linda, if you're checking in occasionally...have a question: Since the site is already here and running, is there any possibility it could go through a name-change to break its affiliation with the past...and be made available to be handed off to a couple folks who might step forward to assume responsibility for such a site?

Where to go now is the question! | |||

I think you should take it over Roundball! | |||

LOL...I wish somebody would...it's already established, debugged, stable, etc. Whoever took it over would probably need to get some sidebar advertising going to pay for the monthly costs as there would no longer be any business association with Scurlock Publishing, Muzzleloader Magazine, etc. Flintlock Rifles & Smoothbores Hunt Like The Settlers | |||

I did look into it a bit on my own. If you look at the bottom of this page you will see where it says "powered by Social Strata" If you click on that you can go to their pricing. The basic standard is $199.00 per month. Almost $2400.00 per year. Or you can click here to see their pricing. I did, just now find another option on their page that is $159.00 per month. http://www.hoop.la/plans.php With that in mind, I found a forum that is FREE. It is a compact basic forum that has all the features that would be needed. A very few guys have signed up by invitation to test it out and it looked like it was working OK yesterday. The way I see it, We have three options. 1. do nothing and we will achieve the appropriate results. 2. Assume ownership of this forum with the permission of the Scurlock's 3. Use this opportunity to create something new with the same group of people that have made this forum such a success. Pat Cameron PJCThis message has been edited.

Gonna miss "The Campfire", and all my friends here. Gotten the chance to meet some of you over the years, including Bill and Linda when my wife and I stopped by while passing through Texarkana a coupla years ago. Shame to lose the site..lots of really good information archived here.. | |||

I'm having a real difficult time navigation around that site. After a couple of trys it appears that I finally got registered. I made one post, but it came out all askew for some reason and then I couldn't get back to the forum menu. Maybe it's just me. I'm a real dunce when it comes to anything electronic, especially these computin' machines. Know what you believe in. Fight for your beliefs. Never compromise away your rights. | |||
