You can't in-line pictures, use bold, underline, italics, bulleted lists, hyperlinks, etc., and facebook seems to think nothing more than a week or two old matters, and it's hard to find the stuff. There's no categorization either. Pretty bad all around.
There were some brand specific forums - Air Arms, Weihrauch, etc.
What are the BIG airgun forums around the world?
I remember not too long ago if you had a question you would get 10/20 replies in no time... now you're lucky if you get one reply ... I've also noticed a lot of the rules on forums have changed and it's much more time consuming to gain access to these forums. I had a hard time just signing up to gain access to this forum. I had to try multiple times. And then when I gained access I had to write up an introduction before I could look at any of the forums are post. And then I had to reply / post 20 times before I could post a picture. I understand. You're trying to eliminate spammers and you have been successful however you have also eliminated a large amount of regular people that can gain access two similar information easier and faster from elsewhere....
