Anyone know what's happened to Britsmoothy? Haven't seen him on here for ages,miss reading his posts.
 
Moved on. He announced it beginning of april due to issues. Not been back since. There was a discussion thread about 3 weeks ago or so about it.
 
Need to be a supporting member to read. Sorry I am not.....

Well folks it's time I went.
I've become something I don't want to be!
A trol hunter I am not but have somehow become one.
A certain member from my shores has haunted me on other forums for years now and I suspect informed the law about me on at least one occasion in the past (which amounted to nothing).

I use to enjoy this place but now I find myself focusing on a nemesis.

But hey, it was good. Many a good person here. Folk that understand how much I love the woods and wilds.
The jokes and humour. The serious and passionate discussions.

So I have to choose.
My health, happiness and family or contending with misery!
I choose my family and health.

Maybe we will meet in the backwoods somewhere.

Thank you my friends. Thank you mods.

I enjoyed his relating of hunting birds with his dog.

There is always some vindictive troll trying to chase people away and/or cause them much grief. It's happened to me a couple of times. But I reported it to the moderators on the affected sites and stuck it out and things did get better.
 
Always considerd Brit a friend, and enjoyed his hunting stories. He is a peson I would have enjoyed spending a few days afield with, and a pint or two in the local pub. I wish him good health and many days afield with his four legged companion.
 
May the fleas of a thousand camels infest the scalawag who caused this untimely separation from our friend; may the fiend be tormented by a hurricane of farts, may his gun barrels always rust, and may his children sell all his smokepoles for beer money when he is gone...!

I think I know who deserves that curse.....
 
It happens all the time, I get it a lot of it because I like to share pictures and "how to's" for any of the newbies out there. There is a guy on the Primitive Archer site that counters every one of my posts with a holier than thou put down. I reported him but nothing changed so I backed off on my posts rather than raise a ruckus on a really nice site. The last time he went after me when I said I carried a pre measured powder charges in a small plastic tubes along with my ball board when I hunted. He countered that in "HIS CAMP, NO PLASTIC OF ANY KIND WAS ALLOWED", jerk.

All of the early very knowledgeable pillars of the archery community all came on board to share their knowledge when the internet surged forward and individual specific boards took off, every single one of them dropped their memberships on these boards because the jerks out there gave them such a hard time with constant put downs and picking fights. So much available knowledge lost, and this was from the guys who wrote the books, literally.
 
Yeah, I see it on a number of forums as well. I enjoyed Britsmoothy's shared experiences, knowledge of antique firearms, sense of humor and sharing the differences of the UK and here as far as the privileges we have and take for granted many days.
Also, even though I don't post much, I enjoy the company, wealth of knowledge and experience here.
