this site is my favorite trapping site. this is my 7th year trapping but first for bobcats/coyotes. When trapperman was up, every time i would ask a question someone would either be a jerk, tell me to look it up in the archives, or call me an anti which i am most definetly not. So thank you to everybody on here for actually awnsering questions. I also like the small town feel on this site Bobcat30

Exactly what drew me here 3 years ago too....very rarely do I even go on T-man, for those same exact reasons and so many off topic threads....Welcome aboard !!

That is the one thing I don't like about trapperman. I feel like a lot of questions go unanswered because people are afraid to ask them because they will be called an anti for not knowing something. I myself will usually ask questions on this site so I don't have to thumb through 20 post saying I'm a dumb anti . So, thank you to all who run and frequent this site.

I spent a lot of time on tman for the same reason most people do... it is active. Let's face it... the reason this board has been so busy for a week is only because tman went down and forced everyone elsewhere. Usually this site is very quiet. But is doesn't have to be. There is no reason all of us cannot keep up the pace of conversations here in the future as right now. I've had a great time visiting and sharing what little I can about what I may know. It was very refreshing to have mature, respectful debates from different viewpoints that never even came close to turning personal or ugly. It's been a real pleasure spending time here this week, and I hope everyone else sticks around and parties on. I know I will do my part and be here much more, for better or worse

I go "visit" trapperman quite frequently. I very rarely post anymore. I am more likely to PM someone if there is something in the topic I want to talk about. While there are some very good, knowledgeable trappers on there, many of the "how do I..." topics get dominated by some kid who caught 10 fox last year, and is now an expert! Maybe he is, but as I have stated before, numbers mean nothing to me! (Just look at my numbers! ) I have participated in some very good discussions there, but too often, someone questions my experience! LOL
I am more than willing to share with anyone. I don't know it all, and never will! I have had some discussions with a very good friend of mine about what goes on at trapperman. He will not even go on there! Too much "crap" as he stated it. Too many bloated egos with "look what I caught!"
I like it here as I have met many, many of the members here! This is very much a family and won't be leaving anytime soon!
Trapperman is a good site, but, please leave your ego at the door!

Yes, and thank you! I would actually be interested in studying the marshes out in your area compared to the roadside ditches in the city here.

Well as a foreigner I have been made welcome right from the off. I drop by here everyday to read some threads. I don't post much as I have nothing to add to the way you guys do your trapping, but if there is something I can share I will.
Never been on Trapperman as far as I can recall.

I certainly enjoy this site, the people on it, and the threads and opinions that y'all are kind enough to share with everyone! This is a well run joint with lots of information running through it's pages! Even though I'm not from New York, you guys really make me feel at home here, and I appreciate it! I really only frequent 2 sites. This site and American Trap Talk is both of them. I honestly don't like the huge sites with thousands of members, like T-man. I'd be wasting my life trying to keep up with all their posts, which half of them are BS anyways! Way to much drama. I get enough of drama in my normal day to day life. I get on trapping sites to get away from the drama. Job well done for a great crew and site, Gentlemen!

Honestly, I only visited Trapperman until it crashed. I am not really sure why. But the crash led me to look elsewhere and this looks like a great site. I will try to participate when I can. I won't lie, I am more of a wnt-to-be trapper. I have all the gear, but just haven't put a lot of effort into yet. Most of my contributions have been to non-trapping discussions. It really fires the guys up when I involve the wife with her bikini or lingerie. Well, gotta have something to talk about in the offseason
