Here is my take on the issue:

There seems to be more threads, posts, etc. dealing with topics that are unrelated to LongRangeHunting. For these issues I'd rather view one of the many other shooting/hunting sites. For instance, LRH seems to be an odd place to dicuss bowhunting equiptment, diesel engines and other odds & ends.

With that being said, it really doesn't bother me because I review this site often and use the "New Posts" feature. It covers all topics and it's easy to scroll through them to find those that I find interesting.

Thumbs up

Len

I Like the site and the different categories and was even thinking
about asking you to add or change the Muzzle loading to "BLACK POWDER"
so it would cover the Cartrige guns.

And the way/order that I use the web site is to first look in USER CP for
responses to threads that I have posted in.

Next I open QUICK LINKS for the newest post .

And if I have been gone for a while 5+ days I open the NEW POSTto get
caught up.

With this method I dont open forums that have not been active saving time.

Thanks and keep up the good work. Hardly a day goes by that I don't learn
something on this site (except how to spell).

PS: I like having more than one thread it keeps things interesting and I dont
have to go to ten different sites to find the subject that I'm interested in
at the time.

And you probably know about the auto email notification feature for this same need?

Is there a possibility you could combine a few of the categories. For example in the animal section, separately list only the most interesting, combine most of the others. You may want to consider a poll and get a few recommendations for general categories.

I agree. I just dont like any of it now. I still go to the same 5 sections and the heck with all the rest of that new junk. I get cross eyed when I log in here now. Sadly it's becoming a huntingnet.com, it wont be long til the manhunters show up.

Here is a simple suggestion for you. Just Bookmark or Favorite your 5 sections. Then open them without even looking at the others. Would that work for you?

Don't let you inability to understand computers and how sites work and what their different features provide to the users get you into badmouthing a great site.

There have been many threads and posts about this recently and there have been several ways described that would let you do whatever you want without you having to be bothered with things you don't like. Check it out and make your life easier.;)

Search, read, listen and learn. It's easy to get just about anything you want, in just about any form you want it from this site.

Len can't please all of the people all of the time so I'd guess that if there are 11,000 or more users that he'll probably not change too much because a handful still need to figure it out.
