His videos are a tool to bring new people to the site? I thought it was just vidoes of some random guy drinking beer....
Haha I gain a little here and there from the ole boy!

I'm guessing that the intended purpose of the classifieds, is to provide a safe and efficient area for participants on the site to transact with each other, rather than to draw more people in.Nothing wrong with that and I'm all about the $15 bucks as I stated in my very first post. But to say the classifieds aren't a huge draw when you can see the numbers is in my opinion a little off.
Why not just do away with the classifieds and pay $15 for a membership?
Winner, winner, chicken dinner!I'm not so sure that red is looking for growth. I'm not an old timer, but I think they had a really cool site going before the explosion last year. In fact, I think he might be trying to slow the growth and keep it small.
If he's looking for money then he's looking for growth. Growth adds ingenuity and experience. The whole purpose of creating this forum is to grow the saddle experience.I'm not so sure that red is looking for growth.

This is what I dont understand. Does SH and it's "old timers" want more saddle hunters or less. It's hard to tell. Certainly they want less people on this site from what I've been reading. Why do you make videos and put them on youtube then? Cause it's not for old timers like yourself who know all the tricks. It's to inform new people but here you are implying you'd be just as happy to see them go.Back in the day we "old timers" had a saying...… maybe it is still relevant in today's world? "Don't let the door hit ya in the ………….."

Growth has been great for saddle hunting gear suppliers. Not so much for mods and papasquirrels.

Growth also comes with headaches and higher bills. He just might be looking to recoup some funds that have been sunk in the process of keeping the site open.If he's looking for money then he's looking for growth. Growth adds ingenuity and experience.

I put videos out because I'm an attention ho. Just like every other youtuber.This is what I dont understand. Does SH and it's "old timers" want more saddle hunters or less. It's hard to tell.

Well I hope that your wishes are fulfilled so your never uncomfortable.let me see if I can break this down into simple terms:
1. More saddle hunters - YES
2. More whiners - hell NO
I made videos because I got tired of answering the same question 1000 times and because I do like to help the average guy out so he doesn't waste a ton of money on trying things
I was going to stay quiet, and might still after I reply, but as a stay-at-home dad of two young girls by day, and a full-time martial arts teacher by night, who also likes to bowhunt, has a low-key nonprofit to run, and is responsible for all culinary exploits in the house, effectively making me Sammy Homemaker, I can not possibly agree with your comment more.The other thing to keep in mind is TIME! Red is a father and a professional in the medical world. Both of those are full time jobs. I'm guessing this started out as a hobby for fun on the side. The site has grown exponentially in members and I'm sure backend maintenance, front end management and cost. The time he is investing needs to come from somewhere, and as a father, I can tell you time doing something away from my family, or when i should be sleeping has a lot of value to it.
Only time @DaveT1963 is uncomfortable is when he's not in his crocsWell I hope that your wishes are fulfilled so your never uncomfortable.

100% He should absolutely be trying to recoup some funds. It's being handled in the wrong way.Growth also comes with headaches and higher bills. He just might be looking to recoup some funds that have been sunk in the process of keeping the site open.
We don't hunt the way most people do, so why should we forum the way most people do? Exciting times to be here!
Just pay if ya want classifieds and the contest, or don't. Stay and hang out and be cool. Or take your ball and go home.
Then why only limit access to classifieds. Why not limit the whole site and make it 5 bucks a year. He would make more money that way and still limit the "cheapskates" and "whiners". One could argue the people who agree with red are whining. Just a matter of perspective.I put videos out because I'm an attention ho. Just like every other youtuber.
Can't speak for red, but I imagine he wants cool dudes on here to chat with. Not whiners, cheapskates, and such critters.
It's like a cool little bar with a $5 beer and a sandwich deal. If ya want a beer and burger, cool. But if you're gonna complain about the lighting, and not get to know the characters...just eat your burger and drink your beer and invite the rest if the world to enjoy the goodies without contributing to the atmosphere...
Am I close here, guys?
