It is up to us to welcome new members and see it grow. That's my opinion and I hope a few of you regulars share that thought and do what you can to get HNI back to the top.
Well said! Perhaps we could have a "bilge" section for the political discussions. Make it so you have to specifically agree to enter this area, otherwise no posts appear unless you ask to be included.
The Hull Truth uses this feature and it has made the site much more enjoyable to visit for boaters and fishermen without an agenda.
Yes, I know I don't have to click on the political posts and if I do, what I'll find there. Post a reply with a different opinion than the ones who rule there and the insults and derogatory rhetoric flows.
