"I never heard anyone on HPA mention that site though."
I have. MANY times. Though Rooster generally discourages it.
The bad stuff aside, every board Ive ever been on has had a lot of good guys on them. That includes here, paoutdoors, and yes, hpa. Just because many of us dont like the way the board is run doesnt mean we think everyone there is a malcontent! Id venture a guess that of the 1000's of members, probably 99% of them would most likely be good guys, including some of those i disagree with on issues.
But the things that go on there with the probably less than 1% who pretty much dictate things...Well that, theyd definately be far better off without.
Thats about all i have to say about that.
