Jeff, its the internet. I am amazed how serious people take forums. Its a forum. Its not life and death. We are not curing cancer here.
What is childish how a grown man could take it all so seriously. Thats my take. Yea, I like poke fun at folks who fall for such marketing tatics. And I try to help others along the way. And sometimes I take advise.
4-5 years ago, you had egos competing with each other. Thats it. People picking pepper out of ant crap we call it. And they competed so hard, a newbie was lucky if they ever got a simple question answered. I personally witnessed what one supposal expert poster who owned a pro-shop that some worshiped could do . I was sorely disappointed. This man was a crook, this man was a fraud.
You know what I have noticed over the last 10years? A sharp increase of people posting they used a mech and now can't find thier deer. Now, thats real life. Thats not internet.

I've had some heated arguments here before, but this 12 year old junior high school girl stuff is ridiculous.
Now when someone asks a simple question for help about a specific problem- they get a lecture. It's no different than the bow bashing BS "I've got a problem with my Mathews, can someone help?" and then some idiot says "Mathews is a POS, buy something else".
Dstubb- I can't help you, I don't own or shoot Rage heads- you obviously would be better off contacting thier CS department.
