FightTheBan 1,147 Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Do you think internet forums have been beneficial or harmfull to the image of hunting? Has broadcasting our sport to the public been good for us or detrimental? Personally, I think it has been detrimental on the whole. Yes the forums are good for people new to the scene and kiddies who show an interest but the overwhelming majority of people on here are bad news. Discuss logically and sensibly.

Paid 935 Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 i dont think the forums have changed a thing. Apart from bring like minded folk together. The antis were just as active long before forums, and the whole fecking lot of them always have some kind of image recording tec with them, to film it all themselves. forums prob just show them there are more people than they though into all this, not just toffs like yourself.

Paid 935 Posted March 31, 2011 Report Share Posted March 31, 2011 Well, you certainly carry a holier than thou attitude about with you. I suppose that doesn't really make you a toff. So I'll retract that bit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its easy to think the world revolves around something you do but alas it doesn't. As for the antis, who seriously gives a f**k? I'm more concerned about them coming on here and reading about hunting folk being worried about them than I am about any petty arguments they read. Don't give them any credit, they aren't worthy of it. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Don't give them any credit, they aren't worthy of it. Very good points and I suppose you can look at it that way. I think it annoys genuine dogmen/hunters more to see their sport dragged through the sh1te than it will to anyone else. FTB Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We all know idiots in the real world who let the team down. How many farms do you know who will shoot your dog on sight because of clowns? i'm more concerned about them than the clowns on here to be honest. The good thing about youtube and digital cameras etc, is that no c**t believes what they see anymore. The antis can copy what they like off here, take photos of what they like, but the impact isn't there. As I said, I'm more concerned about clowns driving through fences, attacking farmers, giving us a bad name..... these are the clowns that are doing REAL harm rather than some pish stain on here.
