There are a few members that have just sucked the fun out of the room. The obsessive need to contradict, correct, and argue every minor point makes for threads that devolve way too fast. It's really not enjoyable. I mostly just lurk now to see how the season is wrapping up in the east and west. But I don't have much interest in posting.

True that!

And .... another example is this thread. It just keeps going. Did not realize how far behind I was and after three pages it got old.

Hey, this is the most exciting conversation going at the moment. I mean, it has everything. Snappy retorts, social impacts of technology, home appliance repair, everything!

And now we have bacon in this thread, since it seems like every year a thread like this one eventually gets some bacon involved in it! :)

So my chipmunk drowning trap hasn't actually caught any chipmunks, but I haven't heard any more critters running along the rafters so they are staying away.

I think what happened is a chipmunk saw it and ran back to his chipmunk friends to say "dude, stay away, this dude ain't fuckin' around anymore." Sometimes you just need a little psychological warfare

It does become tedious after a while to have to defend every post you make. Posts on these types of forums should be like casual conversations, not like defending a thesis.
Glad to see I'm not the only one. Got an early start on my hiking season, put AZ out of mind. I enjoy ingesting black flies.

I am a heavy FB user, just not for AZ. I like being able to dredge up old threads when some obscure topic comes up. About once a year someone will mention that nothing new is being discussed here. Well, until Quiros, Magic and Balsams became newsworthy...
