No reason not to have a lil humor, unless your lacking a sense of one.The answers thus far are unknowingly congruent with his point. Starting from scratch, I have gained knowledge about shooting from 1) high "quality" shooters at the range, 2) this forum, 3) books. 4) my results/tests. Sure there were times when the earlier posters might be a bit dull or too technical for me but you could extract some amazing insight from them. Nowadays the pearls of wisdom are fewer (thank you for the newsfeed!). Some of the great earlier posters are gone or have moved on. I think that is partly due to less useful information available and lame attempts at humor post after post. As an aside, what difference does being a paid contributor have to do with pertinence or validity?
part of the reason I believe the "pearls of wisdom" have gotten fewer is in no small part due to the givers of the pearls being ridiculously confronted and provoked by a bunch of "typing warriors" who shoot guns only a little but their mouths a bunch and so the shooters who spend huge amounts of time and money learning through experience, and was kind enough to share with the rest of us, mostly stopped contributing. yes, there are plenty of great shooters left on here sharing their experiences, but fewer than there used to beThe answers thus far are unknowingly congruent with his point.
