Not just the best run firearms forum, but the best forum that I'm aware of. Not that I'm all that special but the real riff-raff seems to be filtered out without being too heavy handed.
My FAVORITE site on the web. I wish I knew more than I do about Sigs. so that I could contribute more. I like every single thing about this place. Thanks Para !

Sadly, the same website conglomerate did the same thing to two Saab car forums that I followed about 10 years ago. The websites got sold. Moderation went to hell because they had no knowledge of the cars nor the community. Site maintenance became an afterthought. Those sites became ghost towns before Govt of Sweden, GM, Spyker, NEVS, and NEVS' Chinese investors killed Saab in 2011.
They don't think it be like it is, but it do.

Yes, Many thanks to Para and all of the moderators who keep this forum running smoothly and sanding off any barbs that stick out (and the troll elimination that is very entertaining).
Have enjoyed the forum and learned a thing or two along the way. Looking forward to many years of Sigforum and getting my own CUT someday...

How does that conglomerate stay in business? All I hear is how they destroy online forums, they have to make some money somewhere right?

1- Ads. 2- Many folks don't care who runs the show.

Until we see something really bad happen on another forum like many of us observed, it’s all too easy to take a place like SigForum for granted.
Many thanks for what you do every day, Para.This message has been edited. Last edited by: snoris,

I would like to add my thanks to Para as well, plus all the members of this forum. It's gotten to the point that I spend more time on Sigforum than any other site - I may hear about headlines on the radio or news sites, but I come here to read the analysis and discussion. I've learned much and benefited greatly.

Yes, thank you! Very glad there are no ads or other b/s, and appreciate Para keeping it that way. Another forum I check in at regularly is sometimes unbearable due to ads, so I do love the fact Para hasn't given in to that. This is by far my most frequented Internet site, and mostly hang out in the Lounge, even though I hardly post.
Thank you Para and mods!

Thanks Para.
THIS exactly. To add to your comment, many forums will dump on new members, or those with few posts. If you are civil and contribute here, all is good. My #1 forum to visit.
Thanks.

Yes indeed, many thanks to Para.
I just saw the email for the other gun site. What a sad story.
Also a big thank you to LBJ and also to the other mods.
If ever it is deemed a need, I would not hesitate to donate for keeping SigForum independent.
