Know the rules, your welcome here, we love to have you…..

This time of year, this forum attracts new members that want join this great fraternity. This site is very well run, with the intent of having members from all facets of the country  and abroad, members of all ages, and just a great place to share and enjoy knowledge and stories about Turkey hunting. We all try and adhere to the simple rules put forth by the owners of this site. We police ourselves, and every once in awhile we get a bad apple with bad intentions. Theses transients get flushed out, and eventually removed. Bottom line here, when a member see's someone "breaking a rule", we all feel we owe it to the owners to let said members know of the rule infraction. Most of this occurs in the "Classified Rules of Buying and Selling". These are posted right on the site, easy to find, simple to understand. Basically what I am saying here is don't take offense if a member points out or let's you know if it appears your not following the guidelines set forth. Please understand, it's not personal, we really welcome good members here. So if you are unsure of anything, ASK. All of us here will help you, this is what we are all about, one big happy family that is passionate about our fine-feathered friends. Welcome, enjoy, and be safe.....

Well said Tom... We also have  My Messages and You can do a Search on the forum and find a lot of great information shared over the years from members.  AS i have said in the past, new members who send us PM messages realize it might take us a few minutes to respond. If we reply back to your PM message it's always good to say Thank You ... You may not realize this but some of us older members on the forum can have several messages to respond back with information you need.

Great point Greg, forgot about that. Hopefully this puts new members at ease, realizing that we welcome all new members that want to join in and experience all that this forum has to offer.....

Well said Tom007 and totally agree. Especially in regards to the Classifieds section where things are posted improperly for sale in the wrong section or WTB. The rules are clearly stated in the "Classified Rules of Buying and Selling" as was stated. For the new ones posting or selling, just take a few moments   to familiarize yourself with the rules of the forum. This is a wonderful forum and there are definite reasons why it is and continues to be. Welcome to all the new ones and enjoy.
