Feels like another censorship attempt to me.

I wish all of us could attend Shot Show 2025! That would be so cool, right?I never really had any idea how conservative I am until I got around airguners. I have been blown away by the vast amounts of money spent by folks to enjoy this hobby. I have a hard time wrapping my head around it but yes, I get that people spend that much and more on other hobbies. I think it might get a lot easier after the wife wins the lotto. I wish she would hurry up with that, the new models will be coming out soon. Shot show is just around the corner.![]()
Here's my position...Feels like another censorship attempt to me.

We’ll put response. While I don’t sgree with all you said, I respect how you moderate and run the forum. My criticisms stop here.Here's my position...
Edgun West has been a successful business for many years with a lot of satisfied customers.
I have no personal knowledge of the issues related here. So I am not taking sides.
No person or company is perfect - me included! Everyone is entitled to the occasional flaw. It doesn't mean that they are bad people or that overall they don't do a good job.
Edgun West also supports the HAM Community with advertising. It is not smart to bite the hand that feeds us too much.
So I feel that some fair criticism is tolerable. However there are limits everywhere in life and we do better to recognize that and move on at the right time. I believe that is now.
Also please note that I moderate almost entirely in public - like this. There was no back door "censorship attempt " here.
But - in the end - I own the HAM Community and will make the judgement calls on what is fair and reasonable comment.
In this case it was clear to me that some comments were going over that line. Hence my statement.
Thank you.We’ll put response. While I don’t sgree with all you said, I respect how you moderate and run the forum. My criticisms stop here.
But aren't you gonna get a Fenix?Fellas please don’t add any more comments if you can help yourselves. Whats done is done let’s move on.
No not anymore. I’m ok with the L1But aren't you gonna get a Fenix?Saw your posts in the Fenix thread over on another site and it looked like you were all in.
I appreciate you moderating in public. Eliminates question, and false accusations. Also helps us learn, and appreciate your point of view. I've lost track of the large number of forums that I have left due to the lack of respect shown for other members. This is across a wide range of interests. I've even seen moderators being disrespectful. At any rate I like this forum, and hope to continue for a long time. Thank you.Here's my position...

@JeffG, thanks for your supportive message!I'm new here, but wanted to say I too very much appreciate your transparency hameditor. Thank you. How refreshing in a world (online and off) that has become so insanely censored, and complete opposite of "transparent".
We have total respect for our fearless leaderI am also new here and likewise appreciate the style and class of the moderation.
Because @PasadenaMike flooded the used marketI see a lot of Edguns for sale on the various classifieds lately. Hmmm...
Welcome to the HAM forum! Glad to have you here.I am also new here and likewise appreciate the style and class of the moderation.
Wouldn't have it any other way!Let’s face it fellas we’re spending a fortune on essentially BB guns. I wouldn’t change a thing![]()
