I myself think people worry way too much what the other is doing. Lots of busybody sewing circles on forums.
Absolutely! Case in point, I can't stand the continual QDM brow beating we had going on the bowhunting forum for so long. On the other hand, if we don't try to police our own ranks, then the gov't will step in and we'll all be screwed. Unfortunately, once they get past bowhunter education, peer pressure is the only tool we've got.
