Magwa Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I was thrilled when I found this place and I could join , I have looked at the other site but I am not allowed to join because of my e-mail address just wondering how many folks from here were over there as well... I guess if you have a e-mail from a broadband company then you can join LOL well we have no broadband here only wireless... Just curious Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue109 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I had the same problem until I figured out I had a Cox email addy I never use. I only surf it for the classifieds. Think I only have 1 or 2 posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IowaFClass Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I look at posting now and then but not a member. I like the this site much better, plus some of the back and fourth between members just quacks me up. <lmao> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt.Cross Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I've never bothered to sign up. It's a rather large and disjointed group of people. I prefer a community setting. Everybody here knows one another, and most of us share a common mindset. That's why I don't spend much time in those larger, more disjointed settings.

Robocop1051 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 Anyone else notice that despite the name, there sure are a lot of people over there that prefer AK's vs AR'sI have an account there, but it's mainly to look at gun porn. I doubt I have more than a dozen posts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

planeflyer21 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I rarely go there and never as a member.The hyperbole is migrain inducing at best, with any legitimate question almost immediately pounced upon as being ignorant and stupid, then the rest of the vultures chime in.I'd rather pour salt in my eye.Jon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
308truthseeker Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I joined there first until someone there told me about here when I asked about some 308 stuff. I check in over there but it is large, busy and not very user friendly. It seems to be driven by and to some extent ruled by those companys sponsoring the site. I like how you can see new posts since your last visit here and see any replies to things you have posted here when you log in.Just me. :cookoo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imschur Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 As i have said elsewhere some other sites were my inspiration for doing this. Meaning how not to treat people. Make no mistake AR15.com is big business and not a guy renting a server. Kudo's to whoever was behind that site. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magwa Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 True it may be a huge success but like in my case I can not even join the damn thing because I do not have some great internet provider with a so or so name and that to me is complete BS...

Many forums take issue with yahoo, hotmail and gmail because of spammers. There are other ways to get that done if you need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magwa Posted January 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 yes they do I can not have a verizon, or whatever company e-mail address it is impossible as we do not have any big internet providers so i have a Gmail address and have had one since it came out and for that i can not join that forum what a crock of crap if they do not have better anti spam programs in place then they are pretty weak in my eyes.. when normal people can not join a sight because they live in a place with no major internet then something is wrong!

imschur Posted January 26, 2013 Report Share Posted January 26, 2013 Years ago I got fed up with constantly changing email addresses as I moved to different providers. I finally decided to buy a domain, in this case my name, and have total control over my email. This also enabled me to have different email addresses for different purposes. Some are disposable, some are for forums and then I have the personal one. For me it was one of the best moves I made. I never have to worry about changing my email. The down side is cost about $120 per year. It was also the start of my internet presence with my first guitar website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
