You got guns?
you show your guns (pictures) to the general public?
you talk about guns in public forum?

You could be..

Heck in this climate just by wearing a t-shirt with gun picture is enough to be a hijacker

This is the first time that I have seen posts on hijacking.
Two posts on Spam-O-Rama about hijacking.

I have no idea what the problem is.
Maybe somebody can explain to me.

The way that us guys B.S. around hear, most posts end up getting "hijacked", so what's the problem?
I know that if I start a Post about some topic, that by about half way through it, we are all talking about something entirely different than my original post.

We have all become pretty good friends around this place,and that is what happens when friends get together.

No big deal.

I can’t honestly recall any post in which a poster didn’t get the info they were trying to obtain !!!
Yes, we get side tracked at times but, when needed we’ve gotten back to the original question.
For someone not to speak up and say something ( if they feel they’ve been jacked ) says a lot about that person. God gave you a voice, use it !!! Don’t be running and crying to someone else to do what you should be doing !!!
And another thing.................Oh never mind................. Rant

Hear hear..

I am here for a few years, I liked the company so I stay.
I sent out many a topics and while replying to those topics we do talks about other unrelated stuff..
So what?

A bunch of guys gets together after footy Party

.. we all talk about footy (topic of the day) but in between talks about footy,
we could yarn Off Topic

about our last hunt Sniper

,
our new gun Pistol Shooting

,
next door neighbour's constipated dog wtf

,
the bad decision made by our political leaders Mad

,
lack of supplier for free beers Sad

.. etc.
So whats the problem? Rolling Eyes

If we are to follow the rules Deal

all the time I might as well be sleeping Sleep

there is more excitement in that. Faint

Here I think we are the hunting nuts or for some of us Shooting

we got to be nuts to fit in, and nuts definitely discuss many unrelated topics Argue

So did that make sense?

Threads can seldom stay subject specific as there are dynamics to the interchange of information. That cannot be construed as hijacking the thread, rather, hijacking is when a thread contributor deliberately changes content or dynamics. And, that happens seldom on this forum.

As far as bushies guns he can post about them in the guns section under his own topic thread. If it is something more general in nature where we do not have a topic section for then the General section is for General hunting and shooting conversations like Turkey Hunting etc.
All of you are intelligent and can read and understand the rules. If you have a real problem with the rules then take it up with Dallen. He pays for this website and it is his rules and he can change them if he likes and I will operate as he directs.
I find it hard to believe that any of you have never heard of spamming and hijacking threads. It is a common courtesy thing and I know that is not beyond anyone here.

Hey Popgun--You spelled Dallan wrong partner Shocked
