The unfortunate truth of the matter is there are a lot of people who don’t frequent the site anymore due to all the political stuff, personal attacks, and lack of outdoor themed threads. Everyone does have a choice to click on them or not, but from anecdotal observations traffic is down and your head is in the sand if you’re wondering why. Every now and then in a good outdoor thread some of the lurkers come back to converse about topics the site was started to discuss. I miss the good old days here.
