JimBuck Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 This is a good post. It's been only recently that I have started to consistently (religiously?)check the forum's with open water season just around the bend. I gotta say it's enjoyable getting in on the action and sharing/discussing tactics and just general knowledge amongst a super supportive group of like-minded individuals. I frequent numerous other forums to satisfy my hobbies and have been blown away by the support around this forum...ton's of great people and information to be had for all!

federline Posted April 24, 2008 Share Posted April 24, 2008 I think someone said ti already - but I'm like many who, when browsing the site, just go there and read without logging in. It's another step that gets in the way of getting my fix. There's lots of people like me. I only log in if I get the urge to make a post. And because I flush my browser cache all the time and never trust any "remember me" cookie features... oh well. And you know, by virtue of being "anonymous", we'll never really know how many of those thousands are actually registered users who just didn't log in. Oh well. God bless America and its freedoms! Some of us will remember a couple FM forum versions back when there was no persistent "logged in" feature, the only time you typed your username and password was each time you wanted to post. Some of us still act that way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neighbor_guy Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 I "supervised" for about a year before I joined up. Now I am here and contributing and learning more than I did when I just looked around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riverrat56 Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 Welcome Trout Troller, it's a great resource for information as you already know by reading, and like said, it is an addiction, almost like spending half of your day at the bait shop chatting with the local crowd.

UdeLakeTom Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 It is the addiction that causes many to remain anonymous...If nobody can see me, I must not be guilty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is this cookie and spread stuff you're talking about? Why should I care? Are there little boogers crawling around in my computer someplace because I don't shut things down? If I have a virus software that's up to date and AdAware isn't that enough stuff sweeping things out that aren't wanted? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1lkstage Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 Nick, I here yah. I too am amazed with how offset the numbers are. My biggest problem I've found with log on users is the locations of the poster. Minnesota, just doesn't cut it for me. I want to know the area the person is posting from. IMO.I will make the exception to "lakeiwannabethere" as we all enjoy and have been there in one way or another.Tom7227, Ignore the foxfire thing, it's not all it's crack up to be.

riverrat56 Posted April 26, 2008 Author Share Posted April 26, 2008 I don't quite understand that either Lonnie, but to each his own, maybe they don't want people to know for reasons other than knowing where they are fishing.Fishin=easy welcome aboard, I look forward to reading some new information to be contributed by you in the future Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
