[/b] So true. The amount on knowledge here is invaluable. That’s why I’m a paying member. Doing what I can to make sure this place stays around. Sure there is a lot of asshattery but not in the tech forums and its easy to sift through. I just wish we could organize better in the political realm. If I had to be confined to just one place - this would be it. And I’d bet on the knowledge of the best on this site, over the best on any other. |

Quote History3. Arfcom
There are subforums on Arfcom that aren’t total clownshows, and some of the regional subforums are actually pretty good. Too bad the average population of Arfcom are the sorts of people that undoubtedly know the taste of windows. The biggest problem of Arfcom of course is that it’s one of those places where your post count creates authority. “I’ve posted 100,000 times, I’m clearly an expert” is a pretty common mental malady over there. So you end up with keyboard commandos who don’t know the first thing about actually shooting a rifle for blood or money telling honest newbs how to set up their rifle so its a total sandwich of soup. |

I’d like to thank whoever it was that dredged up a 5 year old blog post that I wrote specifically to spin that hit counter back in the days when my blog was monitized with CPM ads. It worked pretty well back then, although if memory serves me the best reaction was from the gun owning population of reddit.
And no, I’ve never been banned from here. |

Thanks! Off that post I probably made about 500 bucks, it did something like 100k pageviews back when I originally posted it and I was pulling 5.00 CPMs back then. That doesn’t take into account the ancillary traffic I picked up from angry 4chan trolls hate-clicking around the website. The big lesson I learned back then is that ad servers don’t care if someone views an advertisement because they hate you or if they love you, and it turns out neither does my wallet.

Quoted:
https://www.gunnuts.net/2014/05/09/the-5-worst-places-online-to-get-firearms-advice/ "The great thing about living in the modern age of the gun internet is that there is a nearly never ending stream of great websites out there to get information about guns, self-defense, the shooting sports, you name it and it’s out there. The downside to that is that there is a considerable amount of bad information out there as well. While it frequently allows smart, like minded people to find each other, the internet also allows terrible, terrible people to find each other and create awful echo chambers of nonsensical derp. These five are the worst." More at link. Sorry, not familiar with making it hot. |

I've never really understood the hate for various forms. Is it really that difficult for most people to sort out the bullshit? Because there are many knowledgeable posts with good information. (Yes even when it comes to financial and woman advice) .
