has gone to the wayside. uppermidwestoutdoors decided to close shop.Shane aka sandmannd, informed us he was going to do it. with everything going on in his life he didnt have time to monitor it, and quite frankly not many went there anymore. i lost the onl moderator job i ever had!!!! :confused: :cry: :cry: :rotflmao: :rotflmao:

i hope he decides to pop in here once in a while, i know he was a member. UMO basiclly started as a result of most the members there being banned from someplace else. it was a good run while it lasted. i have asked some of the somewhat active members to head over this way, so i hope they do. i know one canadian that posts some pretty darn awesome fishing vidoes!!!!!!!!!!!

Yup these forums are old school. Not like the big money media sites.
That's to bad about Shane's site, I've fished with him a couple times...he's a good guy.

It's kinda tough though, keeping these running by yourself...you all know, cause even this one hits the crap fan every once in awhile.

I don't blame him, cause I've thought about it a few times myself.

This place is a big part of my day.  It is great to interact with youse guys.  I tell people all of the time about talking to my fishing, hunting, smoking meats buddies in the mornings to start my day.  Even when I do things during the day I look forward to sharing it with you guys.  Hang in there HD.  We appreciate all that you do so I hope you realize that!!!  And let us know if there is anything we can do to help.

I like Glenn was a moderator there at one time under the moniker of Ude Lake Tom.  Shane and I had a wee bit political falling out and I left that site quite a while ago.  At one time, it was a great site. 
Leaving there, was one of the reasons, I quit visiting some of the outdoor sites and until recently, even this one.  So sad.

I been on HSO, FM and midwestoutdoors for as long as I've been on MNO.
I've never had any issues on Shanes site....  :happy1:
But, every time I go on the "other" site I get the "my posts have to be approved"
I ain't never done nothing over there to be questioned on what I post.  :scratch:

Oh well.....I have never met Rick, or even know if he knows who I am....
But, to treat members like that, I can see why his forum is dying tooo....

I wish no ill will on any site, cause in the end...we all are just wanting to be connected in things we love.

I'm glad you folk's have found a home here, and your always welcome!  :happy1:

But, I even feel concern over folks that have left, and not heard from...

Come to think of it...what happened to Reb?  :scratch:

Yes it is too bad that some of the sites don't make it.  BUT HSO was a lot of fun when I first joined but turned into a gestapo type site I thought.  If you didn't kiss Ricks azz you didn't make it.  I got so sick of that I quit and have not looked at it since.  When they started changing words I posted that really made me mad.  If you wrote the word site they changed it to page.  How stupid and controlling is that.  AND if you even mentioned another site they deleted it or scolded you.  Do they really think that people don't look at other sites?  That is the most narcissist thing I have ever experienced.  It was fun when Boar told someone how can you not have room for an extension for your ice auger?  Just bring the darn thing with you.  Man that got Rick's panties in a bunch.  AND WHY?  I did meet some of you there so that was the good thing.  Much more fun here.

The big difference between the sites like HSO and this site is that the owner isn't trying to make a huge profitable business out of this site.

This website is laid back and members enjoy that. You come here and pull up a comfortable chair and shoot the crap with like minded folks. We have lots of members that share great ideas and experiences and I for one learn a ton!

So thank you HD, thank you to all our active members! This is what make MNO a great place to stop in!

AND there is not all of the bickering and fighting here.  If you said something on HSO you may get beaten up by someone with a different opinion.  Including the moderators.  Felt like kindergarten.
