Maybe a new forum?

[jimdana1942]

I was thinking that maybe a new forum, Survival Talk, or something so called, might be a popular forum. There seems to be alot of interest and ideas to share among members that I feel could be devoted to its own disccussion forum. What do yall think?? Thanks

 

[spanky]

Anyone else think there may be interest in this?

 

[phishyt]

I would like to have some info on the subject. Everyone loves a TEOTWAWKI thread

 

[Quas]

We have tons of survival guides

 

[Quas]

Available to premium members of course.

I've check the survival forum on silencertalk.com occasionally. There's not a lot of activity. Still, I'd be interested...

 

[jmcrawf1]

Yep, I thought a survival forum was a staple of gun forums

Unless its alot of work for spanky. id say lets try it, and if its not a hit...kill it? sounds like it could be cool.

As long as the whole Scenario aspect of it is left out.

So your wife takes some gangbangers parking spot at Walmart and low and behold they follow her home w/o her knowledge. Well at O dark thirty your dogs start barking with that definitely something is wrong bark. Well your thirteen your old fell asleep downstairs on the couch watching tv and wakes up. He/she spots the intruders and releases a blood curling scream. Blah, Blah, Blah
We don't need/want that here.

I hadn't even considered those. That's not my definition of survival. Usually its 'what goes in my BOB?', 'which sleeping bag should I buy?', 'which handgun is better for stopping aliens from leaving crop circles on your lawn?' type questions...
Book/movie reviews, hurricane prep, etc. are all things that end up in 'off topic' now instead of survival.

 

[CajunTim]

I'm all for it.

Anyone use the vacuum bags where you vacuum out the air?
What about any type of water proof bag or do you just spray your current bag down with scotchguard like I do?

kinda what i was thinking.

I still think its a good idea, if its not too much trouble. Honestly, I read the site by 'new posts' not by category, but then again I check every day. For people that only come here once a week (or less) the categories are useful. 'Off topic' needs to be subdivided. Also, the membership is growing. I don't know how many posts were getting per day now, but its up from 3 months ago considerably. We're going to get to the point where I can't keep up by hitting 'new post'!

Lets try it and see what happens.

 

[LouisianaCarry]

We are getting a little "forum rich" for still being a relatively small site (membership wise), but I don't think it would be bad to have that one.

 

[spanky]

Ill throw it up when I get home and well see how things go. Any votes for a name?

Posting while waiting in line! Gotta love it!!

I had read some of Ferfals observations about the fall of Argentina and found the parallels between what happened there and what is happening here chilling

Take it with a grain of salt but this kid seems like an embedded reporter in a chaotic upsidedown world
